When it comes to cake decorating, buttercream is my absolute favourite. It is such a versatile medium that helps you turn your cakes into edible pieces of art!  And above all, Buttercream lets me live up to my motto that a cake should taste better than it looks, always!

But let’s admit it, buttercream is a bit fiddly, especially if you want to try your hands at flower piping or palette knife painting. I get it because I’ve been there!  Let me assure you, our buttercream recipes in here will change the way you look at buttercream. We are steering a little away from the traditional method of just butter and sugar. What we need is a buttercream that’s easy to work with, one that can withstand heat and humidity and one that’s absolutely delicious!

It took me more than a decade to perfect what I do, and I am still learning. I am entirely self-taught and whatever I share with you here are my explorations, all tried and tested, learned the hard way. In my previous life, I was an accountant, and it was in 2016 that I decided to make a career change doing the two things I love the most – caking and writing.

Like any small business, my cake success didn’t happen overnight. A lot of practice, persistence and developing my own style helped me get my work noticed. I was fortunate to have been recognised in competitions such as ‘Cake International’ and ‘Salon Culinaire’ where my cakes won awards based on looks as well as taste. I now regularly feature in Cake decorating magazines, blogs and continue to teach students from all around the world.

I hope to continue to spread the art, inspire and share with you everything I know so you can be the best in the world of Buttercream Cake Decorating!

So let’s get started!
