My Favourite Cupcake Decorating Books

I've searched the net looking for cupcake decorating books for my decorating ideas and I've come across some amazing books.

These books that I am talking about are loaded with creative decorating ideas and really worth your time to try.

I've given them my ranking, based on my personal reference, books I think that give you the best value for money.

You will not be dissapointed.

So here are they, starting from my most favourite book.

#1 - Hello, Cupcake! : Irresistibly Playful Creations Anyone Can Make by Alan Richardson and Karen Tack

This book should not be missed. The title says it all. The ideas featured really are playful and funny.

No baking skills or special equipment needed to replicate the designs.

Looking at the fur of the lion, you will wonder how to make them. But, it's actually easy, and the author's explanation make it easier.

The section I like is the funny faces section. Using various candies, you can create multiple interesting expressions on cupcakes.

And, instead of decorating the cupcakes individually, the cupcakes are grouped together to get the design we want.

Examples like "Corn On The Cob" and "Alligator" are perfect ideas!
