Product Description
In one handy caddy you'll find a generous selection of tips and colors as well as all the other tools specified as needed in the Wilton Cake Decorating Course I. For anyone about to explore the world of royal icing scrolls, flowers, stars, ruffles and bows this would be a hugely successful sendoff.

Amazon.com Review
My childhood birthday parties rose up the ladder of primary-school social events after my mother took a cake-decorating class. Decorating the cakes herself allowed greater individuality and creativity, guaranteeing a unique birthday menu and jealous friends. With this cake-decorating kit, there's no need to take a class to express your hidden artistic side--extensive instructions and great ideas are included in the manual. With 50 essential tools, the kit makes it easy to cover a cake with roses, hearts, and cartoon characters in no time. If you're reluctant to test your skills on a freshly baked cake, there's a practice board for experimentation. There's also food coloring, spatulas, and everything else required for a memorable cake. The entire kit comes in a groovy authentic toolbox, so you're ready to meet the next cake-decorating challenge like an ECT, emergency cake technician. --Laura Cuthbert

4 out of 5 stars More like toy box!   July 1, 2008
This is full of fun toys to make awesome cakes. Of course they leave room for you to buy more to put in there too.

This item is AWESOME. About 9 years ago, I took the Wilton cake decorating classes. No one told me there was a kit, so I began purchasing items one-by-one. I loved the classes, and enjoyed them. I wasn't very careful at that time with my items, and many got destroyed. I gave up the cake decorating for quite a while. I have a 9 year old and 20 month old twins now, and always looking for ways to cut costs. I decided I wanted to make my twin's birthday cake this year, and the first thing I thought about was 'Gotta get the entire kit!!'. Since I know I'll only being doing 'around the house cakes' and not decorating for events, I knew this kit would be perfect, with all the basics! Plus if you add up the cost of all the items included, you certainly SAVE money! Always a plus! The color on this Tool Caddy is much better than the color of the one you can buy with no assesories. Buy this item with confidence! I'm sure you'll enjoy.

This is a great set, has everything needed to start decorating cakes. Plenty of extra room for additional supplies too. Easy to understand directions and practice board make beautiful decorating a breeze.

This is a great kit, portable and very well-suited to someone who wants to decorate cakes/cookies but not go all out with wedding cakes, as the largest kit does.

The book is fairly detailed as an introduction, and there is a good selection of tips inside. Even though you cannot store the larger tips on the points, you can however put other small tips in between those already on the plastic points--especially for example Tip #225 which has a little metal frosting guide insert that could get bent or broken if you try to press it down on the plastic point. This would help you keep duplicates or tip families together in quadrants, if you didn't want to keep them just in the straight rows.

I agree about the box colors available--they could have done much better in that regard.

My main concern (and why it only gets 4 stars) is how long the hinge on the lid will hold up over time, since it seems to be made of plastic without any metal reinforcement.

I got mine using a 50% off coupon at the local chain craft store, so even Amazon's price seems rather high to me.

This is the best value for your money! It's great for keeping it all together, especially when decorating on the go. I love the pegs for organizing your decorating tips & there's plenty of room under the tray for everything you need to make the cake (except the pans!) I definately recommend it.
