The Art Of Cake

hello

I’m Zoë Burmester, a multi award winning cake artist, presenter, writer and sugar craft demonstrator and tutor. Formerly a film and TV set stylist I swapped my canvas from film sets to cake; a journey that started after I made my son his first novelty birthday cake.

In addition to private and PR commissions for cake sculptures and food art, I have also appeared on TV making my cakes too and am a regular columnist for industry magazines.
