Cake Design & Decoration by L J Hanneman & G I Marshall 1955 VGC 262 pages,larger format hardback. The ultimate book on Icing,decoration and design of cakes.A really superb manual,I would guess it's aimed at the professional rather than being a hobbyists book.Packed with illustrations ,diagrams etc. Two "books" or sections,the second being on more advanced work.
