The cupcake is America's darling. It's celebrated in upscale bakeries, on "Sex in the City," on the cover of "Gourmet," and in thou-sands of classrooms--where every day, it seems, a parent has sent in a batch for the kids to share. The very word conjures up whimsy, coziness, pleasure, nostalgia. Not to mention the fact that their diminutive size means you can eat a lot of them.

The cupcake is America's darling. It's celebrated in upscale bakeries, on "Sex in the City," on the cover of "Gourmet," and in thou-sands of classrooms--where every day, it seems, a parent has sent in a batch for the kids to share. The very word conjures up whimsy, coziness, pleasure, nostalgia. Not to mention the fact that their diminutive size means you can eat a lot of them. Once upon a time, a family had only two recipes for cupcakes--chocolate and vanilla. Not anymore. Now Anne Byrn brings them to the next level. And who better? Recognized as the master of cake-mix baking, Anne is the author of "The Cake Mix Doctor" and "Chocolate from the Cake Mix Doctor," which have a total of over 1.8 million copies in print. In "Cupcakes" she offers 135 tempting recipes for children and grown-ups, for special days and everyday, lunch bags, holiday festivities, and an unexpected dinner party dessert. You'll never believe these artful little cakes started with a mix. Coconut Snowballs, Jelly Doughnut Cupcakes, Kiss Me Cakes, Warm Chocolate Cupcakes with Molten Centers, Red Velvet Cupcakes with White Chocolate Peppermint Cream Cheese Frosting. There are surprising additions (tuck a chocolate kiss orpiece of cookie dough into the batter). Creative toppings and easy from-scratch frostings (whipped cream spiked with Kahlua; miniature M&Ms; a creamy malted frosting with crushed malted milk balls).Terrific decorating ideas, from glittering golden dragees or elegant chocolate curls to yellow peeps for an Easter cupcake or--for Groundhog's Day--a groundhog's face made out of chocolate frosting and jimmies. Includes a 16-page full-color opening essay.

I haven't had time to try all of these as I ordered all of the books from the cake doctor and then gave up sweets for Lent. I will make a dent in them soon but the one I made, I was told was good.

Good Value
I have an extensive cookbook collection and this was a perfect addition to add to the other Cake Doctor books I currently have. Very pleased with my purchase.

THUMBS DOWN
LEAVES ALOT TO BE DESIRED AS FAR AS PICTURES IN COLOR BEING DESCRIPTIVE DECORATIONS. BORING. MAY BE GOOD FOR THE NEXT GAL.

Great Book!
A friend of mine had this book and I wanted it so bad. I could not find the book so I decided to search the web, which led me to Alibris. The shopping experience was wonderful and I got the book at a really great price. It was exactly what they said it would be and arrived in perfect condition. I will shop with Alibris again.
