| Sugar Mama's Sweets |
In many of my designs I use something known as sugar flowers (gumpaste
flowers). These flowers are edible sugar sculptures that are created
individually, petal by petal, out of a special sugar dough. The sugar dough
dries hard and allows me to create flowers and many other things that
appear to be real or made out of porcelain. Each leaf, flower, bud, fruit,
berry or ribbon is hand painted with colors I blend to create real depth and
bring out the subtle nuances and beauty of what you might find in nature.
Sugar flowers are sculpted and hand painted with sable brushes like fine art
and arranged to perfection.
Many designs I create include sugar flowers, but not every cake has to.
Quite often my designs will include only creative decorations made out of
edible pearls, fondant or buttercream and may take the form of a sculptural
or theme cake. There are many cake decorators and pastry chefs who use
flowers that they purchase from factories where they are mass produced in
an assembly line. While sometimes that is the answer, I prefer to offer my
customers one of a kind creations.
So, I've embarked upon a journey of perfecting a skill in making my own
sugar flowers. Bringing a piece of sugar dough to life, so to speak, is an
arduous task because it requires tremendous patience and skill.

Nancy,
I finally got the photos from Molly's Wedding. THANK YOU SOOOOOOOOOOO much for your patience and commitment to make the
flowers perfect. Please see the attached with my thanks for your help, creativity, humor,cheerfulness, sympathy, and talent and all
the rest! They truly made the cake. I feel like we shared a wonderful experience, though 2000 miles apart!
The Cake turned out just beautifully. My friend Tony made the wavy lines casual and informal, just like we wanted, and they were
a great background to the soft, ribbon roses you created.
Have a Very Merry Christmas.
By the way, your beautiful flowers, which I feared had been misplaced or thrown away, reappeared and I know Molly will love
keeping them!
