Product Description Witty, one-of-a-kind imaginative cupcake designs using candies from the local convenience store.
America's favorite food photography team, responsible for the covers of America's top magazines, shows how to create funny, scary, and sophisticated masterpieces, using a zipper lock bag and common candies and snack items.With these easy-to-follow techniques, even the most kitchen-challenged cooks can
• raise a big-top circus cupcake tier for a kid's birthday • plant candy vegetables on Oreo earth cupcakes for a garden party • trot out a line of confectionery "pupcakes" for a dog fancier • serve sausage and pepperoni pizza cupcakes for April Fool's Day • bewitch trick-or-treaters with chilly ghost chocolate cupcakes • create holidays on icing with turkey cupcake place cards, a white cupcake Christmas wreath, and Easter egg cupcakes
No baking skills or fancy pastry equipment is required. Spotting the familiar items in the hundreds of brilliant photos is at least half the fun.

Hello Cupcake May 11, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
A fantastic cake decorating book both for the professional or home baker. The cupcake designs are truly unique and the extensive range of designs ensures cakes for any occasion or traditional celebration. As yet this book it not available in book stores in Australia. After seeing the author of 'Hell Cupcake" interviewed on television we had to have the book. Thank goodness for Amazon. com. We are gradually working our way through the book.
Professional Decorating for EVERYone! May 10, 2008 I will keep this easy-just like this book. Everyday ingredients, no fancy tools, incredible results. No decorating experience required. Wow your kids, your friends, your family.
The best cupcake decorating book that I've found May 5, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is the most fun, creative, and charming cupcake decorating book that I have come across. The designs are phenomenal, and the authors show you how to create each design, step-by-step. They have a supply list for each type of cupcake (so you don't go into the grocery store trying to figure out what you need, without much guidance), and there are a few basic techniques that they repeat, but to create different effects. So, for example, you might use a cookie for a panda head, but you will use it to make beagle ears.
This is primarily a design book, NOT a cookbook, although the authors provide a few recipes in the back for a basic cupcake and frostings. Even with the fantastic pictures (the book is loaded with them) and the wonderful instruction, making cupcakes like this takes a lot of time and love. There's no way around that, so please don't fault the book if you find that the learning curve is steep, or that it's taking you hours to decorate the 40 cupcakes that you promised to bake for your child's first grade class!
super cute ideas for cupcakes May 2, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I own a lot of cookbooks. This is probably the cutest baking book I have bought. The pictures are great and the directions are straight forward. I have yet to try any of the recipies so, i can't speak for taste of things, but the book itself is wonderful.
Fun Cupcake Book April 30, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a very fun book. I thought that some of the ideas would be great for a kids birthday party and can not wait to do the doggy cakes. Great pictures and I felt that the recipes didn't call for too off the wall thiings.
