Maisie Parrish, 128 pages, (Paperback).

Maisie Parrish specialises in creating cute and colourful characters for cakes. This collection of quirky celebration cakes is easily achievable using clear step-by-step photography.

There are seven projects featuring her unique modelling style including: Down on the Farm, Butterfly Fairy, Rocking Dragons, Ballerina Mice, Halloween Magic, Cute Christening, and Christmas Crackers.

Each design has true character and unique charm, and is ideal for a celebration with a difference, from a pampered hippo for Mother's Day to cute carol singing penguins.

Each project is accompanied by quick-to-make cupcakes and minicakes to compliment the main cake, or to make when time is short.
