Let me tell ya’ll, if you are looking for early holiday gift ideas, THIS book is PERFECT for any baking lovers. It’s a bible of cookie decorating (including templates in the back) and tips from some of my favorite blogging bakers!
“I don’t think there’s a cookie decorating manual that’s better than this one…Informative, helpful, easy-to-understand…and everything is presented in such a simple, straightforward way. If you’re looking for a cookie decorating bible to take you into the holiday season, I highly recommend this one!” –Ree Drummond, The Pioneer Woman
