  Whip up an eye-popping, lip-smacking, giggle-producing cake for every special occasion and every favorite person (adults too, don't let the title fool you). Choose from 22 basic designs, plus tips for endless variations, from Sketchbook, Computer, and Racing Car to Horrible Bug, Princess, Fishing Pond, and Fairy Town--even microwave cakes that cook in four minutes, designs that start with store-bought cakes, and cool cakes kids can help make. No artistic talent, cake-decorating experience, or special tools needed (except a cake smoother and frosting tubes). Start with a cake and ready-to-roll sugarpaste icing from the supermarket, follow the clear directions, and produce the perfect centerpiece for any celebration--birthday or bon voyage, first day of school or 50th anniversary.
