Anyone know of a good tutorial or where to read about how to construct a cake that looks like a stack of books? If you have any tips, they are greatly appreciated! This is my first shot at a stack of books cake - freaking out a little...

Thank you!

Yes, I have made millions of stacked cakes. Just never had to carve/decorate a book cake. I'll check out that website - thank you!

I agree. Sharon's DVD's are great! I have several and refer to them often. She is great. She is always willing to help.
