Welcome to Food Is Art Too!


Thanks for checking out my first ever blog post! I am a 24 year old banker from British Columbia, Canada. When I'm not giving people financial advice, I love to play with my food. My favorite thing to do is to make creative cakes, cupcakes, and desserts. I especially love making cake look like something else; flowers, sushi, Chinese take-out, you name it! Fortunately I have a large group of family and friends who are all willing to let me exploit their birthdays/anniversaries/weddings/child-birthing for my creative purposes.

Until now photos of these cakes have been in an album on facebook, but I feel that it is time to expand my horizons. I have recently started making cakes for people and companies by request and whenever someone hires me, they ask if I have a website that they can refer their friends or clients to. I decided that a blog would be the easiest way to share my work with people looking to hire me, while still keeping it casual for my friends who just want to see what I've been up to lately. I also like to post instructions and how-to guides for some of my more creative cakes. Nothing I do with my cakes is really a secret, and I love to share tips with people!

When I need a break from cake, I also enjoy inventing my own food recipes or tweaking the classics. I have no formal culinary training, so I really appreciate people who volunteer to be guinea pigs. While not every experiment has been successful most of my dishes turn out pretty tasty and, sometimes, even really, really good. From time to time when I come across one of these recipes I will post it here.

Once again, thank you very much for reading. Please check back often to see what I've been up to in the kitchen, and tell your friends! Also, I love taking requests. Again, I am not a professional baker but I do love a challenge.
