 Rating:  - Glamour CakesThis is a nicely produced book. The recipes in the front are very useful.

I will try some of Eric's creations and hope they will be as wonderful as his. I went on one of his cookery courses in London which was fantastic - his book echo's his cakes in his shop - Glamourous!
