It's very clear that this is a sample of the title, and I'm still very pleased that I was chosen by Net Galley and the publisher to receive an advance peek. This book is fun, well done, and has recipes I'm not only anxious to try, but also think I could pull off.
I love a cookbook that takes fun and ease into account, and this one did not disappoint.

This book has some cute ideas for cupcakes. I actually found one in this book that I'd be willing to give a try. I like the step by step directions and pictures to go with the idea. I wish there were more ideas in this book. I'd recommend it.

The version of Make It Easy, Cupcake, I got to review was just a snippet of some of the pages of the full book, so I haven't gotten to see ALL the designs that are featured in this book but the ones that I did see were totally awesome. The book is full of fun cupcake ideas - the one that I liked the most was a BBQ which featured baked beans, hot dogs and burgers - all as cupcakes! Totally adorable and the book has easy step by step instructions as well as photos of the steps so you can easily follow along and make your own awesome cupcakes, easy! I also liked the crab cupcake.. I am not much of a baker or a decorator but I am just saying if you want to make me happy for my birthday some hot dog cupcakes and crab cupcakes are probably the way to go...

I received a free e-copy of this book in order to write this review, I was not otherwise compensated.

First you still need to make that cupcake! Then you need the extra ingredients.

While it is easy enough in instructions, I think/ believe that reality that this looks not all that simple will hit if you do not know what you are doing. But if you are pretty good with your decorating skills, this book may add into your quick and easy ideas to presenting pretty food at a party.

My kids (6 & 4) are crazy about the book Hello, Cupcake. We checked it out from the library so often I finally decided they needed their own copy. It is one of our most popular bedtime reads! We were all thrilled to see a sneak peak of this new cupcake book, my whole family is blown away by the creativity in these pages. We’re all excited to get baking tomorrow and craft up some adorable crabs, bunnies, and sea monsters!

Richardson and Tack’s books are so much fun to look through, especially with kids. Their books get my kids excited to get creative and make things, and making an EDIBLE craft makes it even more rewarding.

This is a wonderful book with great instructions and illustrations on how to make decorated cupcakes. Even a beginner would be able to use this book and make cute cupcakes without any problems. It gives you a list of the items that will be needed to decorate and how to apply them to the cupcake.

Okay this is one of the rare cookbooks that completely lives up to its title! The photographs are beautiful and informative at the same time, definitely a book I can confidently recommend to library patrons before the publication date.

A great cupcake book for both beginners and experts. As an avid baker, I'm always looking for new ideas and this book had them. I loved how they made petals out of melting wafers. So cute and so easy. And that best describes every cupcake idea in this book. What I really liked was that the designs are easy enough for kids to easily assist. The title says it all. I would recommend this to all bakers.
Thank you #NetGalley for this advanced reading copy

From the review copy I found the this to be a very modern and imaginative look at cake decoration and themes. Perfect from any age group and function. Very well illustrated and explained. It seems to have easy to make decorations. I can only speak of the section I have seem, not the whole book, but if it follows through as it begins, it should be a fabulous book
