On e was the one we see here. The other one had a cake for every month of the year. I'd like to try to get a hold of copies of each of them. If you could give me an idea where to look I'd appreciate it. thanks. Candy B. When I was younger, my Mom had two different cake decorating books from Bakers Coconut. On e was the one we see here.

The first one is copyrighted 1956 and features a different cake for each month of the year! The witch for October is especially endearing. When I was young, my mother made a cut up cake for just about every birthday for my brothes, sisters and I! I am so pleased to have both booklets now!

Back when playing outside all day was the norm. Back before the days of mega-birthday parties for children. Back when mommies stayed at home and baked and cooked from scratch. Now, I have a granddaughter and I think that one of these cakes would be perfect for her birthday! Thank you!! This book brings back memories of my childhood.

(It was my Mom's). I don't remember her making cakes from it, but I remember pouring over it regularly and dreaming of them. I'm baking a cake to become the fish as we speak. There's only two circus animals .. the lion on the cover and an elephant. There's also a giraffe, but I don't know if that qualifies. I think my mother-in-law had (has?) a different one. She makes the big easter bunny face cake that she claims came from that book. In any case, the whole book is reproduced here: http://www.artbaxter.com/esoterica-pages/bakers_coconut-index.html, so you can find the cutout patterns. This booklet as old as me and I have it.
