Description

How to make and decorate showstoppingly impressive cakes by the popular GBBO winner

In this step-by-step guide to creating beautiful cakes, Rahul shares his unique approach to baking, focusing on techniques and scientific explanations, to ensure a perfect bake every time. 

Whether it is how to avoid a curdled cake batter or buttercream, stacking a 2, 3 or 8 tier cake or perfectly piping decorations, Rahul brings forensic insight into why things don't work and how to fix them. He also discusses how to achieve the perfect flavor pairing, the different elements of cake fillings and decorating techniques, as well as how to make some of the most popular cakes from his Instagram feed, including drip cakes, fault-line cakes and a geode cake. 

Since his victory on the UK's most famous baking show in 2018, Rahul has been honing his skills further, combining his scientific knowhow with his artistic talents to create bakes that are not only delicious but also things of beauty. This is the handbook that Rahul wishes he'd had when he started baking and should be the book that all aspiring bakers turn to when they want to create a cake for a special occasion
