Frances has a unique ability to create beautifully crafted models in sugarpaste, which she's able to break down into simple, achievable steps. Like the sugar dogs, the cats in this book resemble real cats rather than fun cartoon characters, and this will be the book's USP. A variety of cat types are included, such as a Burman, tabby, Siamese and endless variations of the 'moggy' -- not to mention kittens, ginger toms, etc. -- all in various poses (sleeping, playing, etc.) and there's even a tiny sugar mouse and some butterflies. --provided from Amazon.com.
