There are so many amazingly talented sugar/cake artists out there, I was wandering who is your favorites? Have you noticed that the UK seems to have some of the most beautiful and intresting "cake art"?

my list is very long. But recently i saw Kate Sullivan in foodnetwork and thought, OMG i admire this woman. She was decorating and doing things w/her baby on her back. Sometimes i feel like i might have to do that with my daughter. Which is far way too heavy for that. But otherwise i have no or very little time to decorate. Anyways, her work is beautiful. I also love Warren Brown. Two people i learned about in Foodnetwork. Others i admire and love their work are just big time well known cake decorators.

My favorite is Sylvia Weinstock. I love her personality. I was watching something on the Style channel that showcased her bakery, and one thing I learned about her is that she goes to each set-up to assemble the cakes. In a HUGE city like that, being a HUGE name in cakes, it just really impressed me that she goes to make sure that everything goes smoothly for the bride on her day. Plus, I love her glasses! icon_cool.gif

Thanks, ladies! icon_biggrin.gif While I don't think my cakes are anywhere near as awesome as hers, I'm slowly working on it. And, I am proud. icon_smile.gif

Debbie Brown is amazing! On Cake Central I really enjoy Boween.

OMG!!! I wanna grow up to do work just like that. icon_biggrin.gif

There are so many other SUPER talented people on this site but to be fair,

Boween's cakes were the first to catch my eye. Just beautiful.

Well, of course my absolute favorite is Colette. Her cakes are so awesome.

But there are others. I like Mike McCarey and Sue McMahon. I just won a Sylvia Weinstock book on eBay that I'm looking forward to getting. I can't seem to get past her front page to look at her cakes. I'm a computer idiot.
