"Easter Egg" In Sneak Peek Chapter
Hi Cake Decorators,
I just added something to the Sneak Peek chapter that you might find interesting. If you download it now, you'll be good to go. If you downloaded the chapter before yesterday, March 2nd, you'll need to download the chapter again to see it. I won't tell you what it is, but here's a hint: One of the links in the sneak peek chapter is now live.
When you find it, let me know what you think! I look forward to your feedback.
All the best,
Michael

WOW!!!
A video tip! I loved the book, but a video is a whole new ball game - I hope this means more are on their way???
When I see something done live, I totally get it right away - no need to reread the instructions four times... Um, I hope I'm not the only one who needs to reread these things...
Anyway Michael, great idea! Give us more!
Video clip looks excellent.
Thanks for all your helpful tips.
Michelle
The video clip works well - good idea.
Tips for cooking centre of cakes are interesting. Where would I find a baking strip, flower nail or a metal core? - I have not seen anything like these in our shops.

Outstanding! Video looks great on my PC! I love the idea of having a book with such great help as a video clip. Much better sometimes, than having to imagine the task.
The video looked great, played well and the audio part was clear.
Good job.
Great having a show and tell section in any part of the bok for those of us who learn better by seeing :)
Tips are great as well!
The video worked great on my PC, and those are some great ideas. I have used the pin-on strips and they work quite well.
Since I have a few flower nails kicking around I'll have to try that next time.
I loved the video. It looked good and you could understand the person. It's always nice to watch something.
The video is fantastic! I can't wait for the new ebook to compliment the original. Keep up the great work.
Thanks heaps

Video looked good to me. Keep up the good work.
Looks good! Re greasing pan: Pan coat that works great: 2 Tbsp. veg oil, 2 Tbsp. Crisco, 2 Tbsp. powdered sugar. Mix and brush on pan. You don't even have to use a knife to get cake out of pan. It falls right out.
You guys are amazing!
Video tips are the way of the future and it seems you are right at the front of all this great technology.
Thank you for all the wonderful tips.
James
Great video - great tip. I will definitly try both. Thanks
The video clip was clear and very informative. I plan on trying both of the tips. But, I have a question, once you remove a heater core from your cake how or what do you cover the hole with once it is removed? The same question would pertain to the flower nail.
Thanks for all your tips and keep up the good work!
I love the book, and it's great to be able to actually see video tips live!
Thanks

Great Video, lots of useful information for a beginner
I loved the video, and it looked great on my computer. This is a great idea. Keep up the great work !
Video was great! I hope you're planning on doing some others...perhaps with flower making or just icing the cake smoothly. Maybe the basket weave.
The video was great and looked great!! Great tips too!!
Marilyn
The video is so helpful to watch. I am a visual learner, and seeing someone "in action" is great! It really complements the wonderful instructions your e-book provides.
Please put more video clips in your upcoming new e-books, Michael!
Video tips are a great idea. But, I agree with Sabrina Rose, the video was a bit "jerky". Other than that, the tips were great and the idea is wonderful!

What more can I say, everyone has said it all. It's really great. The information is over-whelming.I can"t wait. Hurry!!!
Yep, the video is indeed great, even worked well on my mac. Even after taking other classes in this area, I had never run across the flower nail trick. I'll have to try it, as I find the heating core rather tricky to use.
The video clip was great and helpful. I always had that problem with the bigger cakes. I will definitle try it the next time. Thanks for all the useful tips.
Cool video clip. I think this would be very handy to have, but have it more on the techniques in your book instead of just on how to use a tool... there are some things you just can't show a picture for, and for this, I think a short clip like that would be great!
I liked the clip, concise, informative and looked very good on my screen. Thank you. CF
THE VIDEO CLIP LOOKS EXCELLENT.
THANKS.
The video clip turned out great. What a good idea! I loved the tip about the nail. It's one of my favorites and so many people don't know about it!
Thanks again,
Miah
Well I agree with many of the others being able to see someone do something is definately better than having to imagine how it's suppose to be done. I also have questions. If I try the core idea, how high do you need to fill it and will it create a sinkage in the middle of the cake? Can you use this with a rectangular cake as well?
The video was great, the "Host" was a pleasure to watch, the camera was to jerkey, need to pan out, and of course the tips were great.
Jim
The video is a great idea. Things are so much easier to follow when you can see it live. The picture was clear and the instructions were clear and easy to follow. I think the video needs to be slowed a little especially the part which talks about the core and the nail. The video keeps going back and fourth from instructor to the objects too quickly.
The video is great because by watching a pro have some difficulty in putting on the edger thing...it hit home to do it before the batter went in.
Also it was nice to hear of some alternatives in both baking even edges and baking in the middle.
Video looks great.
The video was wonderful!!!!!! I have been making cakes for a long time but your easy to follow instructions and tips have helped sooooooo much!!!!! Thanks again!!!! keep up the good work!!
Christina
The video had great tips! Really enjoyed watching the video.
Fantastic work ,Michael and Sam! Will your videos include more detail work for those with some experience ? Your direction and video clips will make it easy to "take a class at home"! Keep up the great work!
Excellent! I did have some problems when trying to view using Netscape as my browser (it just wouldn't play), but when accessing with Internet Explorer the video was instant.
Might I suggest adding additional text advising users that if the video doesn't work w/ Netscape, they should try with IE.
Great job. I'll be looking for more videos real soon. :)
Michael,
The video clip sounded really good and looked good. Liked the "friendly presentation" given....thanks for the tips!
Debby
That was great. I love the idea of having quick tips in a video format. Keep them coming!
It was wonderful,i feel like i know everything already.thanks micheal and more grease to your elbows.
Loved the tip about the flower nail for cooking the middle of the cake and the video streamed well, was nice and clear and sound quality was also good. Overall i give it an A+, awesome idea to have video clips like this one, makes it all the more enjoyable.
The video clip tips were great! Like others, where can I find the baking strips?
LOVE THIS!!! Your tips you send are the bomb as the kids say.And to nicholas yes others reread too!
It is really great to see things done as I am a hands learner. I do it as I watch and its great!!! Thanks again Bettyp
THIS IS GREAT!!! I learn by doing or rereading alot (yes nicholas others reread). I love your email tips they are so helpfull. I took a few classes (won't name names) but learned a lot more from you. Please keep it coming I Love it. Thanks Again Bettyp.
The video was good for a first try!
Need more info about the "baking strips" -where to buy? Couldn't make out the remark about using water with them.
Re. the Cream Cheese Pound cake - what size bundt pan do you use?
Looking forward to more of your tips.
