Synopsis

Centred on the growing trend for botanical finishes, this book explores how to decorate cakes and bakes with edible flowers and herbs. It explains which blooms are suitable to eat and use for flavour, alongside practical guidance on preserving and storing petals, including techniques such as pressing, drying and crystallising.

Juliet Sear then sets out step-by-step projects for around 20 floral creations, from statement cakes to smaller sweet treats. Designs include a confetti cake, wreath cake, gin and tonic cake, floral chocolate bark, naked cake, jelly cake and letter cake. A considered choice for bakers looking to develop their cake decorating skills with a contemporary, nature-led approach.
