Looking to get a cake decorating kit for mom's birthday - where should I look?

[charlie]

My mother's birthday is coming up, and she has been expressing a strong interest lately for picking up cake decorating again. She used to do this when I was younger, but it's been almost 15 years since she last seriously tried this. Half the pieces of the kit she was given as a wedding gift are broken or missing. I want to look into getting her a new essentials cake decorating kit that would have most of the supplies she would need to get going and have a good time with it. I've done a little online research, but does anyone have any brands they recommend that sell kits or at least any essential supplies that I should include in a kit for her?

Thanks.

Check on line with Wilton.com, or go into Hobby Lobby or Michaels. They have the basics as well as many of the accessories, books, tools. What a nice and thoughtful kid you are! You might even purchase a refresher course/class for her to attend to brush up on thechniques and learn some new ones.

Wilton makes a really nice tool caddy with 101 pieces (it's a great starter set) It's kind of pricey but I found mine at Michaels and had a 40% off coupon which made it reasonable...they usually put out a coupon every other week, look for it in the paper...or, try amazon, they may have it cheaper, not sure.
