Rubies and Gold, Painting and more

I had the opportunity to work with a dear friend of mine on a beautiful couture cake that we decided to name Rubies and Gold. This cake was a lot of fun to work on and as usual with great looking designs also there is a lot of work involved. This cake is fit for a very elegant celebration. I also worked on a beautiful cake for a fall wedding. The bride chose beautiful fresh flowers to adorn the cake. My latest work is a Folk Art painted cake. I had the great opportunity to take a Folk Art Painting class taught by Norman Davis's assistant Zane Beg.
 I love learning new techniques and to apply them to my work. After all that's how we become better at what we do by always practicing and keeping our skills sharp.

Enjoy the pictures of my recent work and thank you for stopping by.

Some of my first work

As I was looking at pictures of cakes I have made over the years, I came across some of my favorites. I also realized that I have come along way since my beginning. I'll need to scan some other pictures from my very first time decorating cakes. But for now I have these photos on file and I want to share them with you.












As you can see I have learned a lot more since those times. It's fun to look back and see how much more you can do when you continue to grow your skills. I really enjoyed the flash back. And continue to look forward to more learning  and growing for the future.
