Rear cover notes: "The Sugarcraft Skills Series is a practical new approach to cake decorating. The series is colour-coded into three bands of ability for easy recognition and includes books for beginniers, intermediate and advanced cake decorators. With full colour photographs of cakes and step-by-step details of specific techniques, the books can be built up into a comprehensive reference on the subject. Ideal for newcomers to cake decorating and those wishing to learn from home, the books are based on the City and Guilds of London Institute syllabus, also making them suitable for those following sugarcraft courses. This title explores the stages involved in modelling to an advanced level. Concentrating on the use of pastillage, the book guides the cake decorator through skills and techniques in freehand modelling. Step-by-step photographs illustrate how to make the best use of specialised tools and moulds as well as achieving a high standard for specific finishes and textures. Modelling characters, animals, objects and 3-D designs are all covered for a variety of different cakes and tableaux. Notes on using the recipes: "For all recipes, quantities are given in metric, Imperial and cup measurements...."
