A one-stop resource for cakes--birthday, chocolate, coffee,
Bundt, upside-down, loaf, and more. From pound cake and

six-layer coconut, rich chocolate, lemon meringue, and
cheesecake to sophisticated grown-up fare including chiffon
cakes and tortes with luscious fruits, these 150 recipes and
color photographs cover techniques, decorating, and gifting
ideas for every taste and occasion, whether no-fuss or
fancy.

Hummingbird), and cakes with unique, sophisticated flavors
and embellishments (Pecan Torte with Lemon Curd,
