Botanical Baking

Contemporary Baking and cake Decorating with Edible Flowers and Herbs

Juliet Sear

Description

Learn to use edible flowers and herbs to decorate your cakes and bakes with over 30 beautiful cakes from celebrity baker Juliet Sear.

A beautiful yet practical flower directory at the start of the book gives a wealth of examples of edible flowers to try, with fascinating notes on their flavour and creative ideas for their uses. As well as using the fresh flowers, Juliet also shares tried-and-tested methods for storing and preserving the flowers, including pressing, drying and crystallising flowers and petals, and making floral syrups for an extra level of flavour. A brilliant 'Baking Basics' section then provides the base recipes for simple sponge and buttercream, as well as showing you how to prepare cakes ready for decorating.

Within the projects section, follow Juliet step-by-step as she reveals the secrets to creating botanical cakes that will leave your friends and family in awe. Embrace the joy of a real petal confetti cake, delight in the whimsy of a flowery cupcake wreath, let a floral chocolate bark tingle your taste buds, swoon at a semi-naked cake, and many more. Whether you're a seasoned baking enthusiast or a novice, Juliet's passion for her craft will ignite your own creative spark.
