B AKING ~ DECORATING ~ S H A R I N G

Cake Masters January Issue


Happy New Year! What a year is has been!
We wanted to do something a li8le dierent, and wanted
this issue to be a visual delight- cakes of all colours from
across the spectrum.
There are several special cake features in this issue but
the best one is the 50 Shades of Cake Feature. We
searched high and low for cakes to feature in what is
pages of coloured cakes - we have the whole spectrum of
colours, from Purple to Blue and from Green to Gold.
We hope you enjoy this feature, as it looks amazing in the
magazine.
I have to say a massive thanks to Jen from Jens Just
Desserts who is for the rst Rme wriRng about her
amazing cakey experiences complimented with her
awesome photography, personally these are the best
pages in the magazine for me.
One thing we try very hard to do is talk not only about cake, but about you - the creator.
Interview features are a must in this magazine and are a great way of geUng to know you all.
Many thanks to Molly and Richard who we have interviewed and have featured in this issue of
our magazine.
We have so much planned for Cake Masters this year and we hope to have our magazines in print
soon too! I really hope this does happen, it would be a dream come true to see hard copies!
Thanks to all our contributors who make the magazine simply awesome - we do have badges that
you can use on your facebook page and also websites, so please do get in touch if you would like
one.
Looking forward to a fantastic 2013

Interview
The theme of this issue is 50
shades of cake - lots of lovely
different designed cakes in an
array of colours...which is coming
later!
When most people hear the words
50 shades,they are of course
referring to the best selling book
of 2012. We think it is easy to say
that the most shared fifty-cake
was made by the fantastic
Richards Cakes. It would only be
fitting to have an interview with
the man behind the cake.

Interview
My full name is Richard
DayandI am48 years
of age.
My first childhood
memory was watching
my mother bake and so I
attempted a butterfly
shaped cake at the age of
6. This was made using a
chocolate flake as the
centre and nestle
smarties as the wings.

Above: Richard shaking hands with Prince


Charles at a Princes Trust event

We have 7 people in my team.


Myself, Emma the manager, Vicky
(cake decorator) , Hannah (cake
decorator), Hallam (Baker), Melissa
(who is front of shop, and also runs
our facebook and website) and
Hayden (Baker and helps with
orders).
Since Melissa set up facebook less
than a year ago, the power of the
internet has helped us go from
strength to strength with people
traveling miles for cakes and
classes!
We have also started selling
tutorials o our website
www.richardscakes.co.uk which
people have found via facebook.

Richard with one of his rst cakes

IniRally I worked in an elderly care


home and people started asking
me to make them cakes. I started
making them for friends and family
as a hobby and people kept telling
me to start a business.
So in 1993 I was lucky enough to
get a loan o the Princes Trust and
opened a shop .

We have transformed our rst oor


into class workshops where people
have travelled from as far as
Athens to a8end.

About the
cake...


The cake was iniRally made for the
window display in the shop. It took
just under an hour and a half to
make and was just vanilla.
The cake was made by Emma, a
pastry chef and confecRoner, who
came into the shop one weekend
and asked for a Saturday job - the
rest is history!

Emma enjoyed the last book the


most as it started to have more of a
story line and you got to know the
majority of the characters in more
depth. It was also interesRng to see
ChrisRan's side in the last chapter
and we are very much hoping that
E L James (the author) writes the
books again from his side.
We had no idea the cake would go
so viral and we were completely
overwhelmed by the whole
response we had. It got shared
over 1500 Rmes on facebook with a
total of around 13000 people liking
the photo.
It has been featured in magazines,
broadcasted on the radio,
published on Fiey Shades of Grey
facebook page and we have also
done numerous phone interviews
with people in the States.
Since then we have made
numerous cakes for customers with
the same design and with it proving
that popular, also run and sold out
classes on it.
Emma has won a Gold at Hotel
Olympia for works in marzipan.
She has also received another Gold,
2 Silvers and 2 Bronzes for various
categorys in work with marzipan,
sugar paste modeling , novelty
cakes and carving with lard.

her mother's wonderful home cooked meals, it was only a
ma8er of Rme before she collided with the kitchen! Jen
found comfort in the kitchen just a few years ago, aeer the
death of her beloved mother, and has been encouraged by
loved ones to share her talents.
Jen loves being in the kitchen, baking and experimenRng with
new avours and techniques when she can. Jen has been so
lucky to have traveled around the world, and is inspired by
the dierent cultures and cuisines she has encountered, as
well as by other bakers, arRsts and photographers. Jen loves
that moment when simple (or someRmes not-so-simple)
ingredients combine to create something magical, and she
tries her darndest to capture that magic with her camera."
Cake Masters is lucky to have Jen come on board to share her
experiences from her travels, we eagerly look forward to her

A"ernoon Tea wi# Jen

Ahh aeernoon tea, the most


wonderful of BriRsh tradiRons!
Although aeernoon tea is so
popular that its served all over
the world, there is nothing quite
like aeernoon tea in Britain. In
my case, its go8a be London,
baby! (and yes, coz Im a
rubbish driver and its the next
nearest big city to me that I can
easily get to by train).

My love aair with aeernoon


tea (Ill shorten it to AT from
here on in) started about a
decade ago, when my mum-&-
dad-in-law gave my husband &
me gie cerRcates for AT at
Claridges. I mean, seriously
laaa-tea-daaa I was hooked!
Its then been a succession of
ATs all around London and the
world: from the Ritz, to the
Mandarin Oriental, Browns,
Fortnum & Mason and even AT
on safari! Ive been to fancy
ones, casual ones; even some
crappy ones and yes, some that
were so unremarkable that I
cant even remember them. But
hopefully youll indulge me in
my selecRon of my favourite ATs
in London, which are all places
that I have been lucky enough to
visit recently to enjoy some
amazeballs aeernoon tea.
OK, so I hate lists that start with
the least-best- rst. So Ill give
you my favourite one now: for
me, it has got to be: THE PALM
COURT at the Langham Hotel.

I mean you walk in its like


WOW! The food was even more
fab and ooh, they had gin and
tonic tea, along with many other
tea choices and the service was
great.
Firstly, they didnt do just plain
ol rectangle nger sandwiches;
there was a decent selecRon of
dierent kinds of savouries. (I
dunno bout you, but I must
have savoury before sweet is
that weird?) If youre not
aicted by this savoury-before-
sweet thing, not to worry, coz
the cake stand is served with
both your sweet and savoury
selecRons. Scones are provided
in a separate basket when
youre ready, so theyre kept
nice & warm. Not that I even
needed the scones aeer
sampling everything on the cake
stand - get this: YOU CAN HAVE
MORE! Yes, this it the bonus of
aeernoon tea at most fancy-
schmancy places: it is ALL-YOU-
CAN-EAT sandwiches and
scones! Some places even oer
you addiRonal pieces of the
mini-desserts/tarts/cakes, etc!
Speaking of the desserts at the
Palm Courtdenitely a case of
tasted as good as they looked.
They provided a great mix of
tradiRonal types of mini-cakes,
fancy religieuse, jelly-mousse
things and of course, a macaron.
When people ask me to
recommend where they should
go for AT in London, the Palm
Court is always rst on my list!

Next on my list of faves has got to


be a Re between BEAS OF
BLOOMSBURY & the PRET-A-
PORTEA at the Berkeley Hotel. If
you know both of these places, you
might think Im a lil nutso to say
theyre as good as each other. But
thats just it; they are very dierent
establishments, but, when
considering the food, service and
ambiance, well, they are both just
as fabulous as each other, but in
dierent ways.
So I went to Beas with friends
visiRng from out of town (well,
Prague, to be exact) and I knew
theyd likely be in casual aUre aeer
doing the tourist-y things round
town, so there was no way we were
going anywhere with a dress code.
A few people had raved about

Beas, so I tried to book a table at


their Holborn locaRon. Li8le did I
know that even this most casual of
tea establishments had NO
AVAILABILITY!?! (Oh yes, please
note that some London AT places
will require at least a few weeks, if
not months, of advanced-booking).
But the lovely woman who
answered the phone said: Just
walk in, Im sure well be able to
seat you, but you may have to
wait. No kidding we arrived at
around 4:30 PM, and it was
PACKED! Then, aeer us, the queue
just grew and grew, certainly a
testament to its popularity, well,
and the fact that there were
literally only maybe a dozen tables.
At least we got to ogle the goodies
before we were sat, which was only
like a 15-20 minute wait. Theres

nothing too fancy on the menu and


I did love the homemade appeal of
all the goodies on oer. The tea
selecRon isnt 10 pages long, but
what you do get for only around
20 GBP per person (which is about
half the price of the fancy ATs) is
your choice of cupcakes, scones,
mini-dessert bites, and anything
else you may wish to order a la
carte. The sta were super-sweet
and you can really enjoy a relaxing
AT experience in your jeans and
tennis shoes. Ooh almost forgot to
menRon coz I only recently found
this out that Bea is none other
than Bea Vo of Asia de Cuba and
Nobu, both of which I LOOOVE, but
that aside, her cupcakes are yumm-
azeballs and my friends and I who
tead there all agreed that Beas
scones were the best/lightest/

As for the PRET-A-PORTEA at the Berkeley Hotel,


well, wowza, what a very unique, fashion-y and
delicious experience! I had seen a friend's snaps of
her birthday AT held there and whilst all the pix of
Pret-a-Portea look incredible, a part of me did
wonder if it would taste as good as it looked. I was
not disappointed! This is one of the most fabulous AT
establishments where its all you can eat
sandwiches and all you can drink tea. I was not
limited to just one tea choice and the lovely waiter
who served me kept asking if I wanted more
sandwiches, or if I wanted to try another type of tea.
Whilst the sandwiches and tea were yummy and
lling, it wasnt unRl the cake stand arrived with the
three Rers of addiRonal savoury bites, plus two Rers
of the fabulous darling! creaRons that I was truly
wowed. The menu described every scrumpRous
morsel and explained the designer associated to
each item. The cool thing is that as the seasons/
collecRons change, so does the assortment of
sweets. But you dont need to be into fashion to
enjoy this experience. There were families there,
couples, and most notably, a number of mothers
with their daughters sharing AT together. Its
denitely somewhere I would have loved to take my
own mom. Unlike some of the other hotels oering
AT, there was no rush to leave so they could make
room for the next booking, and you do get to take
home some of the non-perishable goodies you arent
able to nish in a gorgeous hot pink to go box.

Last on this list, but denitely not least is AT at THE ATHENAEUM HOTEL. Whats
their claim to fame? As it says on their site: Our sumptuous aeernoon tea
scooped the Tea Guild's presRgious award for "Top London Aeernoon Tea 2012".
Considered the 'Oscars' of the tea world, we competed against world-famous
London hotels and tea rooms and gained the Rtle having impressed the judges.
OK, their tea was awesome! It really did feel like an exclusive seUng for AT as
there are far fewer tables at the Athenaeum, but each space really felt quite
private. The AT is not convenRonally served; there is no cake stand with various
layers of dierent, dainty savoury and sweet items. You are hand-served a
selecRon of sandwiches (again, all you can eat!), then scones are served next.
Then, if you can even eat any more, a humongous dessert cart is wheeled towards
you so you can select your own sweets and cakes. I somehow staggered through
to this course and did manage to cram in a good selecRon of some yummy treats.
I have this on my list because I do hold stock in the Tea Guilds awards; they did
award Best Aeernoon Tea in London to The Palm Court at the Langham Hotel in
2011, aeer all.
I, for one, hope the tradiRon of aeernoon tea never ends. In this fast-paced world,
where its all go! go! go! its such an indulgence to sit, relax and enjoy a
leisurely, delicious, someRmes decadent experience. Whilst some may be put o
by the prices of some of the higher-end ATs in London, just know that there are
less expensive alternaRves and great oers to be had from various websites. You
will also be given enough to eat to feed you for lunch AND dinner. Eventually, all
this aeernoon tea-ing inspired me to host my own aeernoon teas at home!

Winners Acceptance
Speeches

We at Cake Masters have been


amazed by some of baking and
caking talent out there and awarded
some super talented ladies our
Cake Masters 2012 Awards.
We announced the winners in our
December magazine and thought it
would be a lovely idea to have some
acceptance speeches from our
winners.

Lesley Wright @ The Royal Bakery - Personality


Award 2012
I started The Royal Bakery Facebook page
after I made my husband a Father's Day
cake. A few of my friends asked me how I'd
made it, so I wrote a very quick, and not very
good, tutorial and published it on my Page.
Now I create free tutorials as often as I can,
and occasionally write up something longer
and more specialized for my online shop.
The cakes I make are only for friends at the
moment, but the California state cottage food
law was passed last last year, so I am
hoping to start a licensed home bakery very
soon!
I am utterly thrilled to be the recipient of the
Personality of the Year Award! I'm lucky that I
don't have a 'proper' job and can devote lots
of time to my Facebook Page and the people
that hang out with me there. It is very
humbling to know that people went out of
their way to nominate me for the award, I
can't quite believe they see me as a
personality! My Page has a theme every day,
where we have fun, share our work, pause
for thought and stir up some drama.

Nicola Tomkinson Sweet Creation - Special Mention Award 2012


Thank you for my award , What a truly amazing achievement My
very first award since becoming a cake baker and decorator 5 years
ago , Id like to say a huge thanks to Allison Henry from Lets Eat
Cupcakes for spreading the word about what I had done. She really
got me this award and I am truly grateful. Secondly I'd like to say a
massive thank you to my staff Sarah and Luke, some of the wedding
cakes achieved wouldn't have happened with out them. I was just
personally honoured we managed to help so many brides with their
cakes on their special day no thanks to the wedding company brides
of Portsmouth going bust. I'd also like to say a huge thank you to my
husband Stuart Tomkinson because with out him I wouldn't have
been able to work the long hours to make the wonderful designs for
my special brides and lastly Cake Masters for my award :)

I couldn't do what I do without the support of


my husband Neil, and my son Will, who have
learnt that saying, 'what's for dinner?' isn't
always the best idea on a Friday night at
6pm. My mummy is my biggest fan and goes
to any lengths to send me cake goodies from
the UK that I can't buy here. I must mention
my fave cake girls, Peggy, Yahaira, Isabelle
and Joanne, who I've never met, but can rely
on for top cake talk at any time of the day or
night!
Thank you so much, Cake Masters, for
rounding of 2012 in such a fabulous way for
The Royal Bakery!

Lou Lou Ps Delights - Cake Pop Award 2012


I am a baker going by the name of Miss Insomnia Tulip AKA Lou Lou Ps Delights.
Like many of us my Grandparents were my baking Inspiration, both village bakers
during the Second World War. Learning all the traditional techniques from them as I
grew up this has given me a firm grounding on which to base the creative pieces I
now create. In fact I still use my Grandmothers Mason Cash ceramic bowl that has
to be well over seventy years old. Indeed it is only recently that I have relented and
brought myself a mixer, for years I worked exclusively by hand and still do a lot of
the time.
Whilst I have been baking all my life it was only a few years ago my amazing friend
Nicolette Wells suggested I shared some of my work on Facebook. The reception
was incredible and I became part of an online baking community that helped me
build my confidence and portfolio of work. I have now been baking for little under a
year and cant imagine doing anything else for a living.
I enjoy applying the techniques and disciplines I learned from my fine arts
background to my treats, especially my trademark cake pops. I see each of my
pops as their own individual tiny sculpture, each with its very own individual
personality. In fact my portraits of key players in the Leveson Inquiry featured in the
Guardian and on Have I Got News For You. I am so thrilled that others seem like
them too, and to win an award for them is both humbling and exhilarating at the
same time. For me it was never about winning awards, so for something to happen
so organically makes it even more special to me.
There are too many people who deserve a massive thank you and hope they know
who they are? All my Facebook fans and customers are of course very important
to me and played the pivotal role in driving my business forward. Valeri & Christina
from Queen of Hearts, they were the first girls I bumped into online although we
have yet to meet in person they continue to offer support and are always there to
offer advice and give me a shove. Love Laura Lane ,Emily Made a Wish and
Jens Just Desserts raised my profile by sharing my work in the early days, and
continue to do so, so massive hugs to them. Not forgetting CakeMasters of course
who expose my offerings to thousands who continue to give me the confidence to
try new ideas.
I have to reserve a special Thank You to PR goddess Miss Cakehead and all my
Eat Your Heart Out colleagues, there are too many to name check so I hope they
dont mind me referring to them en masse? Life wasnt brilliant until I bumped into
this crowd, then things changed dramatically. Working with them offers boundless
opportunity and is both inspirational and fun. Often challenging our work certainly
isnt to everyones taste, but it definitely gets people talking.

Seeing that this is an acceptance speech, I cannot help myself...I


have to pepper (or ice) it with Academy Award acceptance
speeches...for these are the Oscars of the cake world!
Firstly, you asked about a brief introduction about me and my
business. I quote Hillary Swank from the 2005 Academy Awards;
"I'm just a girl from a trailer park who had a dream. I never thought
this would ever happen."
Okay, I never lived in a trailer park...well, I did once, after my house
washed away in a flood during 1996, but I have always had more
than one dream. This one I have been pursuing for the past 5
years. I started off a business making 'picture cakes' (the ones with
edible printed paper), and this evolved into experimental baking,
lots of flops, batter on the ceiling and an absolute hate of
baking...which turned out to be a false hate. I started making
cupcake wrappers using exquisite imported paper...but I missed
baking. I didn't miss 'ordinary baking', I missed the freedom of
making a hundred mistakes to come up with a gem. So it
started...why should anyone have to endure what I had to go
through when I could write them the tutorial?
How do I feel about winning this award? Well...I quote Sally Field
from her 1985 Academy Award acceptance speech; "I haven't had
an orthodox career and I wanted more than anything to have your
respect. The first time I didn't feel it, but this time I feel it and I can't
deny the fact that you like me - right now, you like me!" It is nice...it
is more than nice...it is very special to me!! It reminds me that I am
not just a girl in a South African outpost messing around with
colours and textures and cakes and stuff! It means that people all
over the world who may be stuck in a position where they cannot
express themselves or be creative now have an opportunity to do
so without going to the expense I had to. I love that...from Belgrade
to Moscow to London to Los Angeles...everyone can have
a Giraffe in their lounge or a garden in their cake...even if they
cannot have a real one.

Rosie Cake Diva - Wedding Cake Award 2012


Gosh. Its hard to know where to start in thanking people for
my AMAZING award.
Having only made cakes for my 4 children it was a huge leap for
me to set up a business making cakes for others. Baking cakes
for strangers is daunting enough, but to be responsible for
someones 6 tier wedding cake, as one of my first proper
commissions? Well I have to admit that I nearly turned it down! I
am so very glad that I didnt.
I have to tip my hat to Peggy Porschen, because it was definitely
her floral style that inspired the design process for me and the
bride. But in all honesty, I couldnt have had such a successful
result without the help and patience of my family. There were so
many flowers to make and I had so little time. I hardly slept and I
dont think my kids had a proper meal for a month. That said,
they have become well versed at fending for themselves and
Charlie (age 10) now makes a mean cheesy pasta! Theres
always an up-side!
This has all been extremely new to me. My first paid for cake
was only in May 2012 and the award winning wedding cake
was only a couple of months laterso my learning curve has
been ridiculously steep. Ive always been artistic ..and I
definitely have a love for the dramatic and extreme.so that has
all driven me to make cakes that have a bit more Wow factor!

Carinas Cupcakes - Cupcake Award 2012


Carina's Cupcakes was launched in June 2010
and I started my business having never even cut
a butterfly or bought a pack of sugarpaste!! I am
completely self taught and now teach the
techniques and methods I have taught myself all
over the country. This year we will also be
teaching internationally in Spain and the
Netherlands. Our online shop provides tutorials,
equipment and inspiration for hobby and
business bakers alike with new and exciting
products always being sought.
When I won the Cupcake award from Cake
Masters I was extremely flattered! There are
some awesome cupcakers out there and its a
real honour to have such recognition within the
Facebook baking community. It really topped my
year nicely following our Cake International Gold
and best in class!! Plus the award is totally
awesome and has pride of place in my kitchen!

Thank you so so much Cake Masters

There are lots of people who have helped me


along the way but there is one group of ladies in
particular who have seen me through my darkest
AND brightest days!! My Cakey Godmothers!!
This group of 30 odd ladies have provided
undying support and in particular id like to thanks
Liah of Custom Cupcakes, Lisa my Glamorous
Assistant at Cupcake Boutique, Susan Title and
Vicki Murray of Vicki Murray cakes and Pastry's
without these ladies i would be nowhere!!

P.S. Mr Cake-Diva (who is actually called Jamie BTW) has just


saidhave you explained to Cake Masters that the Wedding
Cake was the second most time consuming thing youve ever
done in your life? The first being you writing your acceptance
speech for your Cake Masters Award! (Cheeky sod).

Thank you Cake Masters for being totally fab and


giving a little added recognition to the Facebook
cake community our environment has its pro's
and cons but you guys definitely add a little
gratitude and happiness to the Cakey World!!

For me 2012 was the most AMAZING year - The Queens


Jubilee-The London Olympics - but my Cake Masters Award
was without a doubt the big fat cherry on the icing on the (6
tier)cake!

North Star Cakes - Novelty Cake Award 2012
I trained as a painter and sculptor and studied fine art
and art history at university before working for a
private collector and then two of the largest fine art
auctioneers in the world based in London. Leaving
the art world in 2006 to start a family I was a stay at
home mum until October 2011 when North Star
Cakes began trading. I am based in Maidstone, Kent
and I make bespoke cakes, I am often asked to make
cakes based on the natural world but I also like to
make pretty cakes, and I adore making sugar flowers.
Having been trading for only 9 months when the
snake cake created as much interest as it did I was
completely overwhelmed and surprised by the
reaction it got, I could never have anticipated that
anyone outside of my local town would ever hear my
name and it was a bit of a roller coaster ride,
however the interest in the cake has presented so
many opportunities that never would have
materialised otherwise, and for that I will always be
very grateful. When I won the Cake Masters Novelty
Cake Award in December 2012 it was a complete
surprise, I was obviously delighted to have won and
I'm very thankfull for all the support I've had from
Rosie and the Cake Masters team in my first year. I
would like to thank my husband and children for
being chief tasters at North Star Cakes, and for
putting up with my cake obsessed nature,
questionable taste in music and long working hours. I
would like thank all the cake community for their
support, for visiting my page and for leaving
comments, I have admired so many of you. I would
also like to say an extra big thank you to Lesley
Wright at the Royal Bakery, Jacqueline Butler of
PetalSweet and Peggy at Peggy Does Cake for
kindly sharing their knowledge and supporting me
early on; thank you to Anabelle, Joanna & Rob at
Confection Perfection in Maidstone, Kent, for their
brilliant sugar flower course and well stocked shop
not to mention great advice. Thank you to Lara at the
Kent Family Magazine who believed in me and gave
me my first editorial; and thank you to my friends and
design team Ramona & Eugen Hanusch who were
prepared to work in exchange for cake when I first
started; and lastly a special thank you to my cake
idols Peggy Porschen and Duff Goldman for inspiring

We will also be at the Cake International shows at


Manchester, London and Birmingham as well as the
Cake and Bake shows in Manchester and London,
please feel free to pop by our stands and say hello.
We were all over the moon at winning the award for
Best Retailer from Cake Masters. It was an honour
to be considered and an even greater honour to win.
We feel very proud of our achievement as it means
that we are fulfilling our goal in striving to be the
best.
We would like to thank all of our loyal customers,
without their support we wouldn't be where we are
now. Their feedback is always welcomed, be it good
or bad. Constructive criticism allows us to improve
our service and give the customers what they want.
We would also like to thank Cake Masters for their
support and having the faith in our company to
nominate us.
Lastly, we would like to all of our staff for all of their
continued hard work and dedication.

Interview
Molly is a talented young baker
and artist who impressed the
cake community with her
impressive white bengal tiger
last year.
We caught up with Molly to find out more
about her and her passion for baking and
decorating.

MEET

Molly

from
Mollys creative
cakes

Q: Tell us a bit about you and your family


I live at home with my parents and older brother, in the small
village of Crawshawbooth in Lancashire.
I recently graduated from Manchester University where I studied
Special Eects Makeup. I have always been somewhat arRsRc
and studied art at A Level. Art and Design is my main passion in
life, and I believe cake decoraRng allows me to channel my
creaRvity in a more accessible way. I come from a 'showbiz'
family; my dad Ted Robbins is an actor and comedian and
presents the main show on BBC Radio Lancashire every day and
has shows on Channel 4 and CBBC, its fair to say our house is a
mad one, and my cake decoraRng only adds to the chaos - and
mess!

Interview

Q: What is your earliest memory of baking?


My earliest memory of baking was with my gran, using a
Cadbury's baking book from the 80s which was AMAZING! I have
actually been looking for it for the past two years.

Q: What is your baking story?

I enjoy sculpture and painRng and watching various cake shows
on food channels which inspired me to have a go at cake making.
I made my rst cake 18 months ago for my cousin's 18th, and
people seemed impressed with the likeness of the caricature
model on the cake. Since that very rst cake I have tried to
improve with every cake I make and like to think I am bringing
something new to the cake decoraRng world with each one. I am
self taught, and I love individual-lising designs for each of my
clients, so they feel like each cake is personalised for them. As
well as cake, I have also branched out into mo topper modeling,
and have learnt and developed techniques such as hand painRng
onto sugarpaste, and working with chocolate too. My speciality is
making animals, and one day I would love to only specialise in
animal cakes!
Q: What have you learned about yourself?
I have learnt that I cope well under pressure, oeen coping
with up to 20 orders a week, as well as never turning anything
down. Even if what the customer is asking for seems daunRng
and I dont have a clue about how to go about it, I will always say
yes, even if it means teaching myself an enRrely new skill. This
means I learn the techniques as and when I require them, giving
me condence in my own skills with each cake I create.
Q: Where do you get your baking inspiraRons from:
I was iniRally inspired by cake decorators such as Du Goldman
and the bakers at Charm City Cakes, as well as Ashley
Vicos, Buddy Valastro, Bronwen Webber, Norman Davies and the
rest of the 'food network' decorators, but as I develop as an arRst
in my own right I nd inspiraRon all around me I am greatly
inspired by nature and animals.

Interview
Q: Who is your role model:
There are so many incredible cake decorators out there, and I am inspired daily by individuals' work, as well
as ne arRsts, painters and sculptors. American decorators such as Ashley Vicos, Du Goldman and Norman
Davis will always inspire me with their innovaRve creaRons, but I like to say I am inspired by people from all
walks of life. Cake Masters also gives decorators a playorm to share their work with likeminded people, and
I think we all have Rosie to thank for that!
Q: What has been your biggest challenge?
I created a top table wedding cake for a wedding last summer, which included 40 wedding guests as well as
the bridal party. The Bride and Groom found out what each guest was wearing, and provided me with a
photo of them, I then created each individual character out of sugarpaste in true likeness. The cake took
over 2 weeks in total to create and was nearly 5 feet long! I have a wonderful supporRve boyfriend Martyn,
who is always around when I need support, he helps me especially with structural issues and problem
solving too.

support, he helps me especially with structural issues and problem solving too.
Q: What has been your proudest moment?
Denitely winning silver at Cake InternaRonal in the Wedding Cake category! I made a three foot
high wedding cake which was decorated in a rainforest theme. It featured bamboo, tree bark,
orchids, lilies, tropical frogs, a sloth, bengal Rger, parrot, chameleon and giant tortoise!! This
was the rst cake I entered into Cake InternaRonal and my rst ever cake compeRRon, I really
wasn't expecRng to win anything - so silver was absolutely incredible, especially when I got such
great feedback from the judges who gave me great construcRve criRcism as well as praising my
creaRvity.

Give us 3 top baking Rps:


1. Using vodka instead of water to sRck
sugarpaste decoraRons together and also to
using vodka to 'clean' cakes of icing sugar
means it evaporates quicker and prevents the
cake from becoming water logged and sRcky.
2. Adding tylo powder to regular fondant icing
creates a medium strength paste to make
models from, it is a much cheaper alternaRve
to mexican modelling paste or ower paste.
3. Madeira sponge (with the addiRon of plain
as well as self raising our) creates a more
stable base for carved cakes, and has a longer
shelf life!

Guest Coloumnist ~ Kirs0e Phillipson
Hi I'm KirsRe Phillipson, 35 years old I'm a full
Rme mum to 4 wonderful kids andI live with
my long term anc Nic.
Ok so I'm not your cake internaRonal winner
"I wish", but I'm a keen baking fan and love
new designs and a challenge.
I normally get an idea in my head then have
to see it through to compleRon - yes there's a
lot of research and pracRces before I get it
right I think cake bakers are there own worse
criRcs I know I am.
I love trying new ideas out and tesRng new
equipment- cake supply shops are like toys r
us to me and I'm sure you have a few good
sites that are like bible shops for nding what
you need.
The tools I am nding most useful and a must
at the moment are my Cricut machine, digital
scales that can measure liquid too, piping
nozzle set, cocktail sRcks a handy tool for
everything, disposable piping bags which are
so easy to use, "the mat" this is fab for pre
rolling icing for a beginner like me worth
every pound, a hi wa8 hand mixer nothing
ash yet but hopefully in Rme and lastly a
small sugar paste rolling pin a lot easier to
work with than a huge heavy rolling pin.
As its all new to me, the more cakes I bake

I planned to add a ligree design around the


cake so ordered the extra Damask cartridge,
li8le did I know that the basic one had the
template I would use in the end.
It was trial an error at rst trying to get the
best results which turned out to be rolling the
icing very thin and chilling before and aeer I
had cut before removing with the most useful
tool in cake making "a cocktail sRck".
Since then, I've been researching lots and
have discovered hundreds of sites and
groups on the Internet and Facebook. They
are a blessing if you have a problem or
quesRon you can ask and within no Rme you
have all the advise help you require.
I'm coming across a lot of places that run
courses, I wish I could a8end but the prices
are very steep I nd Google or YouTube to be
a cheaper alternaRve for teaching myself
although I'd love to have the money to do all
the courses.
I hope you follow me with my cakey
adventure from start to nish and I will keep
you posted on how I progress, its the council
health and safety and sugar glass next
spiderman and an 18th cake Rme so wish me
luck.
I can be found on Facebook KirsRe's Cakes
and my blog kirsRescakes

the be8er. My mo8o is "let the cakey


adventure begin"
My recent creaRon was a cake for my
daughter 19th birthday which I had planned
in my head and went well. I managed to use
my new cricut mini for the rst Rme which I
found simple to use and gave brilliant results.
