- Hello Cupcake Cookbook
- I love this book! I am a real novice when it comes to cake decorating but my first two attempts were very successful. I am getting ready to try another creation and I look forward to it! It is a great way to include the whole family, there is something for everyone to do.

- It was a hit!
- I just love this book and highly recommend it. I recently had my granddaughters (age 5 and 10) for a sleep-over. We made cupcakes with all the funny faces and they had a blast. It was so much fun to see their creations inspired by the pictures in the book. I love how everything is made with things that you get straight from the grocery store. No running around looking for unigue or hard to find ingredients. I'd give it 10 stars but since that is not an option I will have to settle for five.

- Fun! Fun! Fun!
- My daughter bought this book for a friend's birthday; she gave it to her with cupcakes she made from the book - the elephants and the circus peanuts! They were adorable! She got such an immediate sense of satisfaction. it inspired her to take a cake decorating class which turned out to be "boring" and "old fashioned" compared to what you can learn from this book. It truly inspires creativity.

- Baker Beware!
- This book is full of darling cupcakes, and my 10 year old daughter and I have made the sunflower cupcakes and the penguins so far. She has loved every minute of it. However, that being said, it has been a very frustrating experience every time for me. The canned frosting that the book suggests to use is way too soft, and perhaps the homemade frosting would hold up better but geez, these are already so time consuming as it is. When we put the oreos on the sunflowers they inevitably would start to slide off. Not to mention the petals which laid down flat - forget trying to do 2 rows of them. When we made the penguins, everything from the marshmallows to the wings to the beaks would slowly start to slide off, and the black frosting would drip all around the edges. My friend made the butterflies and they looked pretty good. Just be prepared to have some of your very time consuming creations not look that great.
