Special Thanks to the following individuals who are and continue to be great teachers, friends and inspirations and who have helped me succeed in my endeavors to further the dream. And most of all, thank you all for answering my endless amount of questions!
Debbie Brown {debbiebrownscakes.co.uk}- Trips to London were always a learning experience. Everything was much easier to make under your instruction. Many of your designs (santa/bride and groom) are recreated on this website.
Carrie Biggers {carriescakes.com}- Thank you for all your helpful hints and the opportunity for on-the-job training. You've set a high standard and I couldn't have learned from a better person.
Lindy Smith {lindyscakes.co.uk}- Many thought I was crazy to go to London just to take cake decorating classes. And I am! Another version of the bride and groom topper is what I learned and all the inspiration for many others to follow.
Chef Lori Ann Blethen {www.wildflowersbylori.com}- Thanks for helping me think outside the box and not settle for cookie cutter work. Thank you for helping me see and capture the movement, flow and color of each creation.
Tammy Parker (Wilton Instructor/Parker's Passion, 801-268-0850) - My first cake instructor. What a pleasure it was to go through the series of Wilton courses and to catch your passion for cake decorating.
Chef Jaxon Sallard {parkcitycookingschool.com}- Thank you for exposing me to the fine art of cooking. For helping me make everything "taste better." Thank you for pointing me in the right direction when I was looking for a kitchen.
Brad and Mindy McDonald {gygi.com}- I could not have asked for a better kitchen to work in than the one at Gygi's. You're so great to work with it's phenomenal.
David Sargeant (Sargeant Salon, 801-355-3952) - Not only a great hair stylist, but who knew you were such a great Marketing/PR guy. Thank you for all your ideas. Many of your clients became my clients!
