#concepttocreation ... it’s not often (ok maybe twice in my entire career) that I created a computer rendition of a cake before creating it. . . The left is a “sketch” made using paint... yup, PAINT! (And yes the ribbon on the left is supposed to be red, but I couldn’t find an image online) . Client gave me a budget some must haves and her colour palette. From there I got to play and create the cake of my choosing. . . Creative freedom is a great way for cake artist to express their passion. Gaining clients trust will take time, but producing great quality products each and every time will certainly help! . . . Consistency is key. . I don’t often create computer sketches because I like to create as I go. I know that sounds absolutely CRAZY. But it’s true. . . My concepts and designs tend to come to me fluidly and organically while working. I have a general idea and concept in mind but I let the creative process take reign while it all comes together. . . Give yourself the freedom to create and explore. . Your imagination is your only boundary. . Take the stress out of the brides hands and let them enjoy the whole process! . .

Have you found yourself fitting into the average? . . Does it seem like you’re stuck there? . Drowning... plagued by the thoughts of this is where you’re meant to be? . . The average is defined as “having qualities that are seen as typical of a particular person or thing.” ... Or maybe . “of the usual or ordinary standard, level, or quantity.” . . Either way, both imply that you’re the same as everyone around you! Are you whiling to; Defy the odds? Step out of your own way? Your comfort zone? Your safe place? Get uncomfortable? . . Because order to be above average, and to defy the odds, you have to be whiling to do what others aren’t! . . . You have to be ready and whiling to make change. You have to put in the extra work, the extra effort! . . There’s no easy button however determination and hard work will get you the results you want. . . Don’t let yourself fall within the average, go after the life you DESERVE! Strive to be a better version of you! The you that was put on this earth to be. Stop letting yourself be defined by the normal, the average and show this world what you’ve got!. . . Quote is from the book- The Last Arrow, Save nothing for the next life. @erwinmcmanus . . Recommended read for sure! . Are you living your best life? . . . 📷- @aimeenicolephotos • • • • • #malebaker #menwhobake #bakerman #guywhobakes #guyswhobake #workinghands #meninthekitchen #caker #cakedecorator #foodblogger #cakephotography #foodblog #cakeartist #cakestagram #cakeart #cakecakecake #cakestyle #homebaker #ilovebaking #ilovefood #deliciousfood #eatcake #moderncakes #thelastarrow #aboveaverage #defytheodds #lifeyourbestlife #striveforbetter https://www.instagram.com/manversuscake/p/BuoVAA6g16R/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=d4h9dd4hsyd7

When you give an artist the freedom to create you are allowing their true potential shine. . . I was given the freedom to create whatever my heart desired, no limitations no direction. . . There are a million and one ways I could have gone, but I chose to create one of my most favourite textures lately (note the photo background 😉) . . This all buttercream cake is topped with a chocolate stone piece to add dimension and interest. . . All I knew going into this was it was a cake to celebrate a mans birthday and had to be Funfetti inside (we grow old but never have to grow up!). . . It’s a step outside of my over the top, cutesy, colourful and character pieces and maybe that’s why my in my mind it was instantly where my head went. . . Masculine, bold and makes a statement. . . Trust the artist you hire, they are skilled at their craft, don’t just send them a picture and say create this, allow them the freedom to Rome deep within their subconscious and beautiful things will happen! . . Let your next cake make a statement! . . . • • • • • #malebaker #menwhobake #bakerman #guywhobakes #guyswhobake #workinghands #meninthekitchen #caker #cakedecorator #recipes #foodblogger #cakephotography #foodblog #cakeartist #cakestagram #cakeart #cakestyle #homebaker #instabake #ilovebaking #deliciousfood #eatcake #moderncakes #edibleart #buttercreamcake #chocolatesculpture #concrete #stone #freerein https://www.instagram.com/manversuscake/p/Buju4aygGuy/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=vistuddy3xy8

There’s something so satisfying about an ombré cake that from first colour to last colour has a drastic change by using slight gradations. . . This ombré cake has 9 colour gradations. Starting from deep sky blue and ending in white this beauty helped celebrate an incredible 65 year anniversary milestone! . . . Classic buttercream finishes with rough edges are what dreams truly are made of. Check out the video on YouTube! . Link in profile > https://youtu.be/jYe6QaX66gQ . . .
