Review by Library Journal Review

Get ready for another whimsical decorating book from Tack and Richardson (Hello, Cupcake!; What's New, Cupcake?), best-selling authors and culinary MacGyvers who transform store-bought candies, frosting, and baking mixes into stunning cupcake creations. Here, they've expanded their repertoire to include other types of desserts (e.g., a lemon cheesecake that masquerades as nachos). With just one trip to the grocery store, aspiring decorators of all ages can easily re-create treats from this fun book. [Eight-city tour; see Prepub Alert, 8/29/11.] (c) Copyright 2011.

We're Going Hog Wild! In Hello, Cupcake! and What's New, Cupcake? we showed you how to use candy and snacks to turn cupcakes into clever and unexpected treats. But why stop at cupcakes when cookies, cakes, brownies, rice cereal treats, and pies offer so many possibilities? We've developed a whole new set of easier-than-ever techniques, too, so you can make even more dramatic creations. We'll show you how to create glossy patterned surfaces with melted frosting, paint with brilliant "egg wash," and shape candy "clay" into everything from clothes for cookie dolls to peacock feathers or even a Chinese dragon. What are you waiting for? With all of these new treats and techniques, we think your family and friends are going to say, "Cupcakes, cookies, and pie-- Oh, My!
