WH Y DOES CAKE ART
MAT TER?
No matter how long and
challenging the process of creating
such fantastic cakes may be, each of
these artists takes pride in finding
the balance between delicious
flavors and beautiful designs.
"Cake artistry is important
to us because we get to be part
of so many clients' monumental
moments in life, and we want it to
be memorable," said Shepley.
Explaining the joy she receives
from making a client's vision come
to life in the form of a great tasting,
jaw-dropping creation, Gage said,
"is fulfills me. ... My cakes are
the way that I can hopefully add
one special thing to their day."
From hand-painted icing
flowers and ultra-smooth surfaces
to lifelike re-creations of favorite
hobbies and sports team mascots,
local cake artists have all found
their calling in creating intricately
beautiful cake designs that satisfy
both in looks and in taste. Worthy
of their own segment on television,
their passionate work shows off
just one of the many ways talented
artists are flourishing deliciously in
Middle Georgia.
