    <body><![CDATA[OK, I MUST own this book. As a cupcake freak I cannot get over the wonderfulness of these little cakes! So imaginative, and the authors promise that you need no special training or tools, just a few ziplock bags and some food coloring. ]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[The photography in this book is fantastic. Makes you want to try to do all of these. And you might be able to... after taking a cake-decorating class. Several of the designs in this book used advanced decorating techniques. ]]></body>
