I am looking into buying some more books. I want some that contain lots of informative tutorials on cake purses. I was at the bookstore the other day and found it very VERY intimidating as each book was way over 30.00! SOOOO which book is the best for fondant purses?


TIA

I was going to say Confetti Cakes, too. Elisa Strauss seems to have made that her "thing" as far as I can see from her website.

You definitely want Confetti Cakes. Go to Borders and sign up for there buyer program (free). Give them your email address and they send you coupons via email for 20% off any purchase. Certain times of year it goes to 30%.

I just bought Confetti Cakes this weekend at TJ Maxx and paid 19.95. You should check it out if you have one local. Sometimes you really luck out with their books! I love the book, it has all kinds of tutorials and patterns in it.

You can use Borders program online, as well...you don't need a storefront.
