Book Description
Bake it, Craft it, Style it! Amy Atlas, home baker, crafter, and party planner extraordinaire, shows her readers and fans how to create fabulous sweets tables for adults and kids, combining easy recipes, dressed-up store-bought treats, and craft ideas, to make dessert a fitting grand finale to any gathering. Amy Atlas gained an international following when she introduced the concept of meshing baking and crafting to make beautiful sweets spreads. She has designed tables for Brooke Shields, Electrolux with Kelly Ripa, Gayle King, Martha Stewart Weddings, Mindy Weiss, and O Magazine. Since 2008, hundreds of thousands of readers have flocked to her award-winning blog, Sweet Designs. Now they’ll learn how she does it for the first time in her first book filled with brand-new tables, original recipes, do-it-yourself instructions, and dozens of tips and secrets. Sweet Designs includes 15 chapters filled with more than 100 recipes for every kind of irresistible treat, plus over 75 easy, affordable DIY craft projects to make them even more special. Each chapter features an amazing dessert table that reflects themes Amy’s clients most often request: a favorite color, design, flavor, destination, passion, or holiday. Amy tells readers how they can make just one item, mix and match items from different tables, or make the dessert tables as shown. For every maid of honor who needs to plan an epic bridal shower (and then later the baby shower), every mom who needs to put together a birthday bash her kids will never forget, and every Scrabble aficionado who wants to throw the game-night party to end all game-night parties, Amy serves up that elusive “wow factor" to make every celebration an event to remember. Praise for Sweet Designs: "Amy Atlas, dessert designer extraordinaire, shows you how to create your own stylish sugarscapes for any occasion. Whether baking, creating, or designing, it's inspiring the way she showcases sweets." --Bakerella, author of Cake Pops "I think I have met my match. Amy not only knows her candies, but she knows her cookies, cupcakes, sweets, and crafts too. She takes her sweets to a higher level where they take center stage." --Karen Tack, author of Hello Cupcake! "Amy Atlas is the dessert guru. She's taught me that the dessert table is the pinnacle of any event. She's an inspiration to all bakers!" --Tori Spelling "The celebrity event planner--best known for her decadent dessert tables--transforms a batch of sugar cookies into something special." --People "Sweet Designs: Bake It, Craft It, Style It. I say, Buy It! Amy was the first and true innovator of these amazing displays of deliciousness." --Mindy Weiss, celebrity event planner "Amy Atlas has revolutionized the dessert category, bringing style, sugar, and innovation to everyone's favorite course." --Colin Cowie, celebrity event planner and lifestyle expert "Amy’s dessert displays are ALWAYS the talk of the party, returning every adult to a state of childhood glee while making every sugar fantasy come true for the little ones. Sweet Designs is the next best thing to having Amy at your own affair." --David Stark, president, David Stark Design and Production "Amy has transformed the way we all see desserts. No wedding (or event!) is complete anymore without a whimsically sweet and delicious dessert table to top off the night." --Carley Roney, cofounder and editor-in-chief of The Knot

Book Description
Finally, a cookie book that’s sweet and sassy! Sweet Talk Cookies has gloriously out-of-the-ordinary cookie designs. If you’re sick of the same-old cookies, if you can’t possibly decorate another bland tree or stocking, look no further. Hayley Callaway, founder of Hayley Cakes and Cookies (@thehayleycakes), has just what you need—whether that’s a taco truck and message cookie that says “Feed me and tell me I’m pretty” or a T-rex hanging Christmas lights. When it comes to designs, this is a book filled with cookies that have character, for year-round fun. Chapters span the seasons, including both holiday-related motifs and designs that simply celebrate something like summer fun (helllooo snow cones!). If you’re looking to really make these cookies your own, you’ll love the creative lettering workshop. Once you master the art of writing with icing, you can customize to your heart’s content! Inside, you’ll find all this and more: A complete cookie class: Outlining all the key materials and techniques needed in the rest of the book. Recipes: Hayley’s signature cookie and icing recipes. Writing workshop: The key to making the cookies your own! Holiday cookies: Cookies to pop the bubbly and celebrate the New Year, fa-boo-lous Halloween cookies, ideas for your Valentine, and even a couple birthday party cookies. Animal cookies: A whole farm of mini-animals as well as bears, a rainbow turtle, even unicorns! Christmas cookies: Just try and pick your favorite from the what’s crackin’ nutcracker, Rudolph the sprinkle-nose reindeer, and a cookie that is decorated like a tray of Christmas cookies. Summer cookies: Have some fun in the sun with mermaids, fancy seashells, watermelon, tie-dye shirts, and more. And even more cool designs: Cowboy boots, eggs and bacon, carved woodgrain, a watercolor cactus...the sky’s the limit! If you are the type of person who demands cookies not only taste good, but be in good taste, this is your cookie book soul mate!
