Are you tired of frosting recipes that are overly sweet, unstable, grainy, or just don’t perform the way you need them to?

If you’ve ever struggled to frost a cake cleanly, make a ganache that doesn't split, or find the right amount of filling for your cake size — this guide is for you.

Created by professional pastry chef Faye Palmqvist, this comprehensive resource shares over 20 years of hands-on experience, from home baker to chef and consultant. It's packed with flavour-forward, professional-grade recipes and practical tools that will elevate your baking instantly.

'Honestly you must try Faye Palmqvist recipe for this. It’s amazing and very easy and soooo beautiful to pipe.  I also like it because it’s not as sweet as American buttercream.'
