I read all of the 5 star ratings and thought this would be a great addition to my cookbooks. However, with much disgust, I am already halfway through the recipes and have yet to find even ONE recipe that does not state in parenthesis ingredients can be found at “specialty baking stores” or “online sources.” What?! I was under the impression we could find “most” items in our local grocery store or convenience stores as the book states and not have to go to “gourmet candy stores,” “baking supply store” or “online sources!!!!!!” Not ONE recipe so far calls for all items we’d find at a grocery store! Black food coloring? Orange food coloring? Moss green food color? Brown food color? (All found at baking supply stores). Dark blue paper liners? Chocolate covered sunflower seeds and black chocolate covered sunflower seeds? (Found at gourmet candy stores). Black, pink and white decorating sugar? Popcorn boxes? Orange melting wafers? Chocolate and white chocolate melting wafers? White, chocolate and carmel jimmies (found at baking supply stores). Blue silver dragees (baking supply stores). Brown paper liners? Striped paper liners? And what the heck are Nonpareils (available at baking supply stores!) There are a few items I’ve never heard of before. Do not get this book thinking that you can find the decorating candies, food colorings and such at a grocery store! I could list more items not found locally but the above is just the first half of the book’s recipes! Granted, yes, the book lists two pages of sources where to get the ingredients NOT found in grocery stores, and yes, the photos of the finished cupcakes are fabulous…now, if I could only make them without all the fuss of buying the ingredients! If I knew what I know now, I would NOT have bought the book!

I did not like this book. Who wants to make cupcake like Corn on the Cob, Lettuce, Radishes, Spaghetti and Meatballs. I was expecting more recipes for baking. Nice pictures, few ideas for decorating but I would not buy it.

My husband purchased this book for me for Christmas. I made the bowling pins for my daughter’s Youth Bowling League party. They were very time consuming and frustrating to complete and almost impossible to get them to look like the picture in the cookbook. The cupcakes had so much icing on them the kids even pushed a majority of it off onto their plates instead of eating it. This was the first recipe I tried out of this book and will probably be the last.
