Naked Cakes: Simply Beautiful Handmade Creations

Such a pretty book and the recipes seem so simple

The recipes in this book are Devine. I have tried a few different cake recipes and they have all turned out amazing! Everyone who eats these cakes love them! The recipes are very easy to follow and the book has a beautiful aesthetic to it. I would recommend.

Beautiful book full of photos and details... Shows you how to reprocate the same look as her cakes.. As for the recipe- I’ve only made the lemon cake with the vanilla frosting. Frosting was delicious, cake flavor was delicious, but cake itself was a little more on a denser side.. Will try more recipes and update from time to time..

This book is adventurous, decadent and visually compelling. Every recipe is beautifully laid out offering a multitude of design, taste and decorating options and every cake looks elegant and luxurious. A stunning book for the discerning baker.

I bought this book about 5 years ago and it quickly became one of my favorite cookbooks. The photos are breathtaking, the combination ideas are endless and it is brilliantly organized. I certainly thought I was doing something wrong every time I attempted to bake a new recipe, so last night, after I botched the chocolate cake, I decided to look up reviews to see what other bakers had to say about it. I realized I was not alone, sadly, some of the recipes are way off. The quantities are too large for the tins, temperatures are too low and frostings too runny, just to name a few issues. I would still recommend getting this beauty of a book because it is bursting with ideas, just make sure to use your baker’s intuition when putting them into practice.

I bought these for my sister for a coffee table book. The color is just as beautiful in real life and she said the recipes in it looked delicious.
