More About This Book

Overview

Bake it, Craft it, Style it! Amy Atlas, home baker, crafter, and party planner extraordinaire, shows her readers and fans how to create fabulous sweets tables for adults and kids, combining easy recipes, dressed-up store-bought treats, and craft ideas, to make dessert a fitting grand finale to any gathering.

Amy Atlas gained an international following when she introduced the concept of meshing baking and crafting to make beautiful sweets spreads. She has designed tables for Brooke Shields, Electrolux with Kelly Ripa, Gayle King, Martha Stewart Weddings, Mindy Weiss, and O Magazine. Since 2008, hundreds of thousands of readers have flocked to her award-winning blog, Sweet Designs. Now they’ll learn how she does it for the first time in her first book filled with brand-new tables, original recipes, do-it-yourself instructions, and dozens of tips and secrets.

Sweet Designs includes 15 chapters filled with more than 100 recipes for every kind of irresistible treat, plus over 75 easy, affordable DIY craft projects to make them even more special. Each chapter features an amazing dessert table that reflects themes Amy’s clients most often request: a favorite color, design, flavor, destination, passion, or holiday. Amy tells readers how they can make just one item, mix and match items from different tables, or make the dessert tables as shown.

For every maid of honor who needs to plan an epic bridal shower (and then later the baby shower), every mom who needs to put together a birthday bash her kids will never forget, and every Scrabble aficionado who wants to throw the game-night party to end all game-night parties, Amy serves up that elusive “wow factor" to make every celebration an event to remember.

—Karen Tack, author of Hello Cupcake!

"Amy Atlas is the dessert guru. She's taught me that the dessert table is the pinnacle of any event. She's an inspiration to all bakers!"
—Tori Spelling

"The celebrity event planner—best known for her decadent dessert tables—transforms a batch of sugar cookies into something special."
—People

"Sweet Designs: Bake It, Craft It, Style It. I say, Buy It! Amy was the first and true innovator of these amazing displays of deliciousness."
—Mindy Weiss, celebrity event planner

"Amy Atlas has revolutionized the dessert category, bringing style, sugar, and innovation to everyone's favorite course."
—Colin Cowie, celebrity event planner and lifestyle expert

"Amy’s dessert displays are ALWAYS the talk of the party, returning every adult to a state of childhood glee while making every sugar fantasy come true for the little ones. Sweet Designs is the next best thing to having Amy at your own affair."
—David Stark, president, David Stark Design and Production

"Amy has transformed the way we all see desserts. No wedding (or event!) is complete anymore without a whimsically sweet and delicious dessert table to top off the night."

    Was really, really bummed to see that while I pre-ordered the book months ago, I received my copy today, after the book had already made it to the shelves in the store. Zero incentive to pre-order.

    Onto the book. I think Amy's work is amazing, but sadly the book had a great deal of the work we've seen her post and others re-share, repetitively, for the past few years. I was really hoping to see very fresh concepts, work we hadn't seen, not just all of those parties compiled in a book. Don't get me wrong, the book has good ideas, how-tos and such, but I was left hoping for more, I felt like there was little I hadn't already seen from Amy.

    My daughter and I loved this book so much, I bought another one.

    My daughter and I loved this book so much, I bought another one. Not only is it full of gorgeous, detailed photos (pure eye candy), there are tons of easy to read tutorials, recipes and templates. It is perfect for anyone wanting to create their own candy or dessert station as it is very user friendly and gives great ideas on how to recreate her looks. I can't wait to try the recipes as they all look scrumptious and easy to make. I will be purchasing more as gifts for friends and I think it's absolutely perfect. It's also very well written. You can tell she put a lot of thought into every piece of this book. Best purchase in a long time!

    I was so excited when my husband told my book came in the mail! And I was not dissapointed! I have had a hard time putting it down. And I even took it with me to my haor salon for my appt because I knew a freind of mine would be there and i wanted her to see it. She thought it was great. It is so full of ideas and easy to follow. My daughters wedding is at the end of May and we are doing a candy and dessert buffet. I can't wait to use these ideas I feel much more confident now!

    Excellent book full of ideas

    Everyone on Facebook was raving about pre-ordering this book, so I had to join in with the craze and find out what this book was all about. It was definitely worth the purchase as it is categorised into sections and shows you lots of tips and how to mix and match different ideas. I love that Amy tells us everything she uses to style her tables.. Helps a lot as I don't know all the names of props. I will be taking some of these ideas for my son's first birthday! I really can't wait! Thanks Amy for such a wonderful book... I am definitely going to buy your next book!! :)

    The master magician reveals her tricks! What's truly magical about this book is the way it looks both impossibly perfect in the set-up photos and then laughably simple in the how-to pages. You go from, "Oh my giddy Aunt!" to, "But I can do that!" and then back again. It's actually mesmerizing and mind expanding. I look at everything in my home differently now. I was already hosting quite lovely tea parties, but now that I have the book, I'll just have to step it up - a lot! But that's alright because I have this delicious book to help me. Abracadabra! Thank you Amy Atlas for a beautiful, helpful, practical and awe-inspiring book. It doesn't get better than this.

    Amazing book. I never thought I could make a dessert table look as beautiful as Amy does until I bought this book - she really breaks down the process and it is SO fun to read. You MUST buy it.

    The comment below is from someone who hasn't received the book. Of 270 photos, there were only about 8 photos that were old. In addition, there were recipes, crafts, tips that Amy never shared before. This is an book filled with information and party styling ideas. It is a reference guide filled with tips. Amy shared everything, including all of her resources. The photography was great, her tips were invaluable. This is a must-get book!

    This book was well worth the wait. Not only is the photography breathtaking, but the recipes and crafts are easy to follow. Amy gave me the confidence to create a movie night for my son's birthday party. Not only were the sweets a success, buy my son's friends are still talking about the party. Love this book.
