Martha Stewart’s Wedding Cakes
Just out, Martha Stewart’s Wedding Cakes is the newest series of Martha books to reach the masses. Wendy Kromer authors the subject along with Martha to create not only a cookbook, but loads of cake based information for the bride-to-be:
Of all the decisions that go into planning a wedding, choosing the cake may be the sweetest. Much more than dessert, this beloved wedding symbol should be as special as the bride and groom themselves. Whether you imagine a majestic cake blooming with fresh flowers, a pristine fondant-covered masterpiece, or a homespun take on strawberry shortcake- or even if you don’t know where to begin- Martha Stewart’s Wedding Cakes will provide you with more than 100 delicious and inspiring ideas for timeless and beautiful confections that are perfect for every style of wedding.
Not just visually inspiring, these pages are filled with information you won’t find anywhere else.

Novice and experienced bakers alike will find recipes and insiders’ techniques to create truly memorable wedding cakes.
You will learn:

A treasury of inspiration, Martha Stewart’s Wedding Cakes will ensure that your cake, whether homemade or professionally baked, triple-tiered or a tower of cupcakes, embellished with fresh fruit or elaborate sugar roses, is every bit as magical as your big day.
There seems to be quite a few recipes, but I am not sure if this is one I will be running out to purchase. It is geared to such a narrow audience. Of course, I suppose that audience is not meant to be me. Unless you are interested in starting a new hobby, want to add a book to your collection, or you or your child are about to wed, I don’t consider this to be a real essential.
I am sure we will see Ms. Kromer on an episode of Martha along with more Martha-promoting releases of not only her newest publication, but her newest endeavor to expand her demographic.
You can purchase Martha Stewart’s Wedding Cakes at Amazon and other booksellers.
