Synopsis

Centred on decorating cakes and bakes with botanicals, this book brings together over 30 projects alongside a directory of edible flowers, with notes on flavour and ideas for how to use them. It also covers ways to store and preserve flowers and petals, including pressing, drying and crystallising, plus making floral syrups for added flavour.

A dedicated Baking Basics section sets out core recipes such as sponge and buttercream, and explains how to prepare cakes for decorating. The projects guide you through creating a range of botanical designs, from petal confetti cakes and cupcake wreaths to floral chocolate bark and semi-naked cakes, making it suitable for both experienced bakers and newcomers.
