My experience began as a child when I prepared mud pies with rocks in them (they were the nuts). One Christmas my parents gave me an Easy-Bake Oven.Little did I know that would lead to creating towering layers of wedding cakes.My classes began in 1988 while I was working in the sales and catering department of a local 5-star hotel. I enjoyed creating unique cakes so much that I took the basic classes,and Voila! A career was born! In recent years, I have been fortunate enough to take some phenomenal lessons from some of the masters such as Mercedes Strachwsky, Ron Ben Israel, Bronwen Weber, Julie Bashore, Mary Ann Moy and Roland and Marsha Winbeckler.I have also enjoyed the pleasure of meeting Norman Davis,Mike Terry, Buddy Valastro and Ashley Vicos. They are all so gifted and it is my goal to continue to pursue lessons from craftsmen of their caliber. It is truly a blessing for me to be able to share the gifts that God has given me with my customers.Not a day goes by that I am not aware of God's presence in this business.With Him, I can accomplish things that I just cannot do alone. This is a dream come true for me, and it gives me great joy to be a part of creating special cakes that make lasting memories for my clients. Thanks for considering CakeAlicious. I look forward to baking for you soon! God Bless, Alice Cooke
