About the Book

The look, the smell and the taste of chocolate make it one of the most indulgent of foods, so it is hardly surprising that chocolate cakes have become such a popular choice for weddings and celebrations. The classic and contemporary designs range from the smooth, sleek, shiny, elegant and stylish look of dark chocolate to the pretty cakes adorned with creamy white chocolate curls.

Chocolate Cakes for Weddings and Celebrations is a unique book containing over 20 spectacular chocolate cakes from the simple one-tier to the more extravagant five-tier creations and amazing chocolate table centrepieces. The book also includes a wide range of cake coverings, from pure chocolate in dark, milk and white, to easy-to-use ganache and chocolate paste, so popular with sugar crafters.

The various chocolate techniques are demonstrated in stunning step-by-step colour photography. Covering every skill level, from beginner to professional, this book is accessible to everyone on a chocolate adventure!
