Does anyone get this magazine. It is published bi-monthly.

On the back of the cake flour box was a discount to get a subscription. I think I will order it if anyone here gives it a nod of approval. Always looking for tip and ideas. They say its good for every skill level.

you can check out the magazine and order it at
www. americancakedecorating.com

There is a discount if you use the coupon code SAS06

Or on the back of the box is a phone number or a order form. it takes 8-10 weeks for the first issue to arrive.

Thanks for your input on this magazine.

I've been getting it for about a year now and will renew my subscription. I was getting the Mailbox one too, but probably won't again - the cakes are fun to look at, but I would rather look at the ones on here. I dont' really use that one for much. But the ACD is full of great ideas, techniques, and business info.

Two more things about the magazine......

The code SAS06 is good for $3 off one yr ($28 - $3discount = $24.95final US price)

and there's a FREE monthly web-newsletter called the SLICE that you can subscribe to.

It's a shame I can't find it anywhere. Is it by subscription only?

I have gotten the magazine ACD for over ten years. I have all but the third print. I will not let this magazine go for the life of me. I love it. The only way to get it is by mail order. I don't know of many stores that carry it any more. I love the people whom put it out also. Have met them several times.
