5 out of 5 stars I had no idea...   May 4, 2006

that the humble cupcake could be elevated to an art form. This is one of the most visually stunning (prepare to salivate copiously) collections of recipes I have ever seen. The recipes range from Grandma's favorites to wildly unusual inventions. Clearly Ms. Wagman is an artist, chemist and gourmet with an impressive dose of creative genius thrown in. I particularly appreciate the "cupcake tips" that are generously peppered throughout the book. There's nothing like learning how to do something from a pro. The recipes are presented concisely and clearly with magnificent color photographs of the finished products. There is something here for every occasion and every audience including a chapter of kid's cupcakes. Cupcake books are everywhere nowadays. This one is by far the best one I've seen. Your parties will never be the same.


5 out of 5 stars Imagination has no bounds....   May 4, 2006

This new cupcake book by Gail Wagman shows that one is only bound by the limits of their imagination when it comes to creating recipes for a specific area of baking, in this case - cupcakes. Wagman's use of themes, design, color and artistic concepts are unlike anything I've seen. I love cookbooks and am aware that cupcakes are all the rage currently and the market is flooded with books on this subject. I look at all of them and haven't seen anything that can compare with her exquisite presentation, unique ideas, clear descriptions and easy to follow recipes. And the photographs do it all justice. This book should become the gold standard in this area and should be owned by all cooks and pastry chefs whether professionals or beginners.


5 out of 5 stars Very Impressive   July 7, 2006

The first thing I noticed when I opened Cupcakes Galore was the decorating style. For example, the Mint Julep cupcakes has a little straw poking out to make it look like a drink, a black and white yin-yang design, and a cupcake made to look like a crown. After I looked at all the photos, many of the titles were equally eye-catching (Blueberrys n' Creme, Rootbeer Float, and Tiramisu). In addition to all the fun creations, there are many elegant cupcakes suitable for a wedding reception or other formal event. 'Cupcakes Galore' is full of fresh ideas and I am glad to be adding this one to my collection.


5 out of 5 stars Beautiful, moist & delicious cupcakes!   November 2, 2006

As a big cupcake fan since childhood-- I still stand in line at the trendy Magnolia bakery every time I'm in NYC--I found Cupcakes Galore to be a fabulous inspiration for decorating cupcakes, and the best source I have found for making moist, delicious cakes that are the foundation for the fabulous frostings. I love the tips from a pro and the book is presented in a very playful, yet passionate way--the author obviously loves baking. It's super for both the simple cupcakes-with-frosting of my childhood and for the many fantasy cupcakes for special occasions. Great layout and photos, too! Out of the many cupcake books that are suddenly around, think this is the best I've seen.

I found the recipes in this book to be inventive but easy to make. All the recipes I've tried have been very affordable and easy to make using supplies and ingredients that are easy to find am work with. All the recipes have been met by not only my taste buds respect to their deliciousness but also by those I have fed and shared these cupcakes with. I highly recommend it to beginner to advanced cooks alike.
