  Surpassing any garnishing book we've seen, this shows how to craft fruits, vegetables, herbs, flowers, dried mushrooms, dairy products into eye-catching table decorations, all using ordinary implements, unlike garnishing techniques from the Far East which require special tools. Little radish mice to nestle in the holes of Swiss cheese, a Pear Hedgehog, Homemade Potato Chips with Herb Silhouettes, an unforgettable Cheese Tray: cheeses set amidst fragrant herbs and flowers; there are also new ways with creams, puries, coulis, and dessert sauces. It's a book to turn you into a culinary artist, of interest to caterers or aspiring party givers. -- World of Cookbooks. 128 pages (all in color), 8 1/2 x 11.
