We have a really nice cake supply store here in town but it is pretty out of the way for me. Anyhow, I think that I'm going to make the trek tomorrow. I'd like to pick up some things and I'd like to get an instructional (decorating, not baking) book or dvd or two while I'm there. I've been making family cakes for...well as long as I can remember...but I'm relatively new to it as an art form.

sugar shack dvd'd, Jennifer Dontz, dvd's , American Cake decorating Mag
any magazine or book that they carry on cake decorating, hopes this help .

Jennifer dontz's also got a great semi homemade fondant recipe in her dvd. Sugarshack is also good.
