Unleash Your Inner Baker: Learn Creative Cookie Decorating Techniques with Buttercream Frosting for Every Occasion

C. Madsen: I have to say that I can watch this all on YouTube and other places, but wanted a book. I ordered two different books. The other hasn't arrived yet, but this one COVERS IT ALL! There are recipes, illustrations, and tips, too. Well worth the cost of the book to have this on my shelf!

katie: This book is very nicely organized and contains recipes and separate chapters for cookie decorating for all seasons. I did not, however, appreciate the various Bible verses interspersed throughout. I returned this book due to this.

no-nonsense: I have not tried any of the recipes, but as a book, it is extremely well written and organized with step by step pictures of how to pipe buttercream designs.
There are 8 recipes for cookies (sugar, chocolate, red velvet, chocolate chip, gluten free, dairy free) and 4 variants of buttercream. The focus is narrow, but the recipes represent the best after many trials and errors by the author. That last part impresses me. You want recipes that have been tested, tried and true, so to speak.
The list of ingredients are simple and straightforward and available anywhere. The author is even specific about the brand of butter to use and why she makes this recommendation. She even offers substitutes if such ingredient is not available in your area. That's considerate.
The step by step photos are labeled "1" "2" etc with caption, so very easy to follow and visualize as you read. If you are reading on Kindle, it has the effect of being a mini movie as you click on the right/left arrows.
I like that she is very specific about the tools used and techniques described.
80% of the book focuses on how to pipe designs onto the cookies, but this info is transferable to any cake or...

JBMJBM: I love this cookbook and so does my 18 year old daughter. I get frustrated when baking sugar cookies because they never roll out right or come up off the cutting mat without the shapes getting ruined, so I never make them. The sugar cookie recipe in this book seemed to come up easily and the round shaped cutter I used did not get ruined. She even shows you how to assemble your piping bag for the buttercream properly. I could never figure that out. She has so many very detailed instructions on how to decorate the cookies. She tells you what tips to use for each cookie. I love the “From the drawer” section for each cookie-it tells you every tip and food coloring you need for each cookie! There’s an illustration on decorating for ANY occasion. My daughter wants to keep making them so she can decorate them with all the cute ideas in this book. I like the fact that you can make the sugar cookies without chilling the dough. It does say to chill the dough for at least 15 minutes to firm it up to prevent spreading before cutting out the cookies, or for 10 minutes after cutting them out, but also had a no chill method. That’s what I did and it went perfectly! My husband said these...

Benz1431: Emily Hutchinson is a blessing from GOD to all of us... She shares not only her recipes and techniques but she opened up her life and journey with everyone. Her testimony moves my heart and it is so refreshing to see someone openly praise Jesus for his love for all in her wonderful cookie decorating book!!
Stay blessed Emily ♥

Lucie Bakes: Creative Cookie Decorating is so much more than a cookbook. Throughout this book, Emily shares her heartbreaking story of child loss, love and family, and of course her inspirational journey to becoming one of the most popular cookie decorators on social media. As a fellow cookie decorator, I primarily bought this cookbook in an effort to support my friend’s venture, and when I received my copy, I ended up reading it cover to cover, crying through her personal messages, and making note of every recipe I needed to try (I’ve since tried her recipes and techniques, and they’re awesome!) The recipes and instructions are also very easy to follow - perfect for beginners and also advanced decorators. This book now lives on my coffee table where I look through it daily; it’s a beautifully designed hardcover book with excellent photography too!
