Whip up fondant and see how to ice petit fours, and adorn them with coconut, nuts, and flowers. Instructions for using a pastry bag show how to write a greeting and create leaves, borders, and flowers. And, of course, the all-important wedding cake is here, too. While the focus is specifically on decoration, there are also basic cake and icing recipes to get you started.
