Here are recipes for all the various building blocks that can be combined into delightful cakes and gateaux.
Jan Hedh doesn’t just give us the recipes, but also shares his enormous knowledge with us: What happens if you increase the amount of sugar in the sponge cake foundation? How does gelatine work? What makes a foundation less crumbly?
Step-by-step, very pedagogically, he shows how you bake layered cakes for weddings, classic Swedish cakes and foreign gateaux.
In addition, there is an entire chapter about cake decorations: for weddings and baptisms, roses in caramel, doves in cake icing and pique decoration.
