When I started caking a year and a half ago, I couldn't in my wildest dreams imagine it would take off the way it did. Every cake has a story, and every cake no matter how simple or elaborate teaches me a lesson for the next order. I am self-taught, and although that means my resources were (mostly) women who have mastered this craft and were generous enough to share their talent on the internet, the rest of the work - the trial and error - falls on me. Love working with new techniques and special requests.
