Any Good Cake Books For A 9 Y.o. Kid??
Decorating By ceshell Updated 16 Oct 2009 , 7:35pm by kendraskitchen
Hi cake friends! I was so flattered to just get a message from a Facebook friend who says her 9 year old daughter loves looking at my cakes and has even tried to copy some of them. How cute! (well, as long as she give me credit.
j/k!!
She said her daughter has been baking and decorating since she was little (hey, 9 is still little!) and asked me if I have any recommendations for kids' cake books. She wrote "something not too advanced but she doesn't want another "baby" cake book." But I have to confess, I don't have a clue
.
Can anyone help? I just searched the forums for "Kids book" and "beginner book" and came up empty.
Thanks!
9 yrs. wow. I was thirteen. My aunt made me a holly hobby cake. I thought that was the most amazing thing i had ever seen.I cried when they cut it. My aunt then went out got me my first copy of wilton and a set of tips. cakes have been in my heart ever since.
wilton magaziones have a lot of ideas and tips she will only learn from what she reads.
good luck
I would get one of the easier Debbie Brown books...maybe 50 Easy Party Cakes. I have that one and my daughters love to look at it for hours. Nothing in it is too hard either.
I like the book Cakes for Kids. It's not written as a kids decorating book but mainly as a book that shows kid themed cakes. The directions are very simple to follow and they have it divided into different difficulty levels. They take a regular cake pan - either round or 9 x 13 and show how to cut it up into different designs. Their designs are simple and I'm sure a 9 year old with interest in cake decorating could do the majority of the designs.
