I created The Cake Perfectionist to channel my long running passion for baking and cake decorating and to share my interests with other like-minded enthusiasts!
I gradually explored my obsession for 'all things cake' over many years of 'trial and error' at home and lots of experimentation. I eventually decided to try some
informal taster sessions at a leading local bakery (Slattery's) and
other cake decorating specialists (much to the satisfaction of my regular cake tasting guinea pigs).
In 2012, I embarked upon some formal training at Tameside College - recognised in Greater Manchester as a leading bakery school - to develop my love of baking and cake design.
I now hold a professional cake decoration qualification, having achieved an overall distinction in my first year and completed year two with two cakes marked with distinction and two with merit.
Although I have a full time job, two children and regularly go running, I somehow find time to update my skills by exploring new decorating techniques and testing out new ideas and recipes (often by watching all sorts of classes I've purchased from Craftsy, as well as free material from YouTube).
Thank you for looking and please get in touch if you want to talk through your ideas!
