It was there that I began to learn professional techniques. After that growing experience, I studied make-up artistry for the film and television industry at the Berger Institute of Production Technology.

I made my first fondant two tier cake for my son’s 3rd birthday. I honestly did it because I did not know of anyone at the time who would create a cake like that for me.

With their continued support and my own strong efforts, I have high hopes to turn this into a full time business and hopefully a storefront. To everyone that has ordered and will order, a huge THANK YOU!!
