2013 Wedding Season In Review

Now that the wedding season is just about wrapping up I finally have a moment to write about it. 

As I review my portfolio of new designs, I'm thrilled to see how elegant and sophisticated my clients selections have been.  Beautiful details can be found on all the cakes from delecate hand painted embroidery to lush sparkle adorned fantasy flowers.  Clients are getting more and more creative in their selections opting for beautiful large sugar roses and bold statement bows.  Well done everyone!

My celebration cakes have also seen a shift to the more specifically creative.  Sugar dolls were seen throughout the year.  Little edible duplicates of a loved one.  Very fun to do!  The soccer ball was quite popular this year as well.  With the addition of cake pops and cookies this year the product line has also expanded to include Sweets Table fair.  Many little pieces of matching sugar delights creates a lovely feast.  In 2014 I look forward to expanding the cookie line in particular.  I will be adding these wonderful buttery morsels of sugar art to it's very own page on my website in the coming months.  Cookies can be customize beautifully and can range from simple decor to beautifully detailed and delicate sugar art.  A perfect addition to a sweets table or a lovely favour for a baby shower or wedding shower.

In 2014 I will begin mapping out the creative process in a way that my clients can see how their cakes evolve.  These behind the scene sugar tid bits are fun to read and often will divulge trade secrets!  The teacher in me is happy to share how it's done so I hope these tutorials are enjoyed by all.


Sweet dreams,

Grand Opening!

It has been quite some time since I've written about the going ons of Cake Glam.  The most important new information is that after many years of wishing and dreaming I've finally opened my own Cake Gallery conviniently located in a wonderful Bridal Plaza in Vaughan.  This location is unique in the sense that unlike a typical bakery, I'm in a boutique with other wonderful wedding professionals.  This makes the whole wedding experience that much more pleasant as you're able to browse other professionals, as you sample my delicious cake!  The gallery cakes are still being made and little by little  my space will be filled with gorgeous sugar creations.  This experience has allowed me to really explore current wedding trends and offer my brides something modern and just a shy shade away from the extra ordinary.  After many long years, I can finally unleash all my sugar dreams into my gallery.  Stay tuned for pictures of these new designer cakes!
