I am just curious to know if there are any other male cake decorators. I've never met one. The only other cake decorators I know personally all happen to be women - and lovely women at that

We do have some guys here. Mike and Doug are the ones I think of off the top of my head. Maybe they will pipe up and say Hi.

Doug's a teacher so now that school is back in session he may nto be stopping in as much.

Cool - hoping to hear from them. maybe they've experienced some mockery from other guys and can give advice.

Yep, I know of Mike & Doug and I do believe there is another young man on here also (just can't remember his name),. They are some of our best advice givers also.

Hi there UltimateCakes.....guy here! It's always nice to find other males interested in this industry...

I'm a newbie...only been decorating for a short time...probably about 4 mos or so, but I LOVE it...I LOVE CC too!

Add me to your buddy list..would love to keep in touch!

Chat soon....

My husband has always been good at making food look pretty and has tried his hand at decorating. I had never been interested. I bake all sorts of other things. Recently we have decided to try to open a home bakery. In looking online, I noticed CC and became addicted. Now I want to learn about cakes too! The new fondant cakes have got me in a whirl! My husband still swears by the buttercream.

In 2 weeks, we will be taking WIlton 1 together. He will probably be better at it than me, but oh well.

He is the jj part of jjandhope, but doesnt get on CC himself unless I call him to come look (often).

Hope

There are a few guys not only on here but all over. Check out jayscakecouture.com He does some amazing stuff.

My brother isn't here on cake central, but he is my #1 choice when I need a sous chef lol. He's a firefighter by day, but I've been calling him "Billy Crocker" for years. I told him as soon as I have enough work to hire another decorator, he's in! lol

I bake everything. Cookies, brownies, banana bread, cupcakes, cake. My hubby usually does the decorating for the cakes.

I just noticed your in MI, where at?

Mike

Corunna - It's a small town in Mid-Michigan.

I'm a guy!! Been decorating for most of my life. Been decorating on my own for about two years now. We are few, but we are here!

I've been baking most of my life but just started decorating about 4yrs ago.

Hoping to open a small Bakery one day soon.

I wish I were a guy sometimes (no more PMS) - can I get half-credit?

Seriously though, I worked with male decorators a couple of times (one gay, one married) - and was sad I didn't have a chance with either one. I would love to find a man as passionate about this art as I am. I applaud all men willing to pick up a pastry bag. Go you!

Just in case you're wondering - I'm Married (not gay) and love this art.

PoleKitten, you are so funny...

Delete post.

sad but true

I'm a female but my dad always has always said that I would make a better guy than a girl since I'm a tomboy. Does that count?

My DH decorates with me sometimes but he sticks to carving and fondant . He's done 3 of the cakes in my gallery actually. He gets on CC every now and then but he just signs in as me since he doesn't want to sign up on CC because he might get addicted .

I'm in MI too. Go Wolverines.

I bleed Maize and Blue - bleeding a LOT this season Tomboys can count too!!!

Wow I never realized there were so many men on CC. I wish my hubby liked cake stuff then maybe he'd be able to help out every once in a while

My hubby has the official title of "cake boy". I love it. He makes and paints all of my shells and bamboo, makes all the buttercreams, some fillings, and washes all of the dishes. He's progressing in the business... he does come on my name and look around a bit and read articles, but doesn't post.

I'm from Michigan too - but female. I'm from Port Huron - a little city north-east of Detroit. I can see Canada from my office window.

I've taken a couple holiday classes from a male decorator. He competes in wedding cake competitions, and was on Food Network a couple times. This guy is so talented . . . I feel like a rookie every time I walk into his shop.

Male, decorate cakes...still making and decorating, just havent posted any in forever. Love decorating, pastry bags and women.

With a name like PoleKitten, I love you too!

Got divorced...she took my oven, but I still have my Kitchen Aid! Angry angry woman...had to replace a good scraper too. Went to pick up my cake stuff and my little girl said "Uhhhh...you probably want to throw that away." Least thats the only thing she did in...I hope!
