Today I don't bring a recipe for pregnant women or one for children, but I bring a lot. I say this because I want to tell you about a book called Planet Cake Children, where you will find 680 ideas to make cakes for your children's birthday.
It is a very practical book in which they are explained in detail all the tricks to design a cake-stage, from the preparation of the cake for the base, the preparation, coloring and placement of the covers or the manufacture of the decorative figurines.
In simple language, the book explains in simple steps how to create each of the elements of a decorated cake and suggests many ideas that if you are creative people you can apply to your own designs.
I am not too tricky with these issues but I certainly dare, little by little, to prepare some of these cakes so that when my nieces come on Easter holidays, be made a pastry chef and surprise them with something special.
