Alicia is a Brunswick High School student. I met her over the summer during one of my Summer Cake Camp Sessions. She recently stopped by to ask for some pointers as she had been commissioned to make her very first wedding cake- ever.
Knowing how terrified I was making my first wedding cake for a client I offered my cake studio space for her to come and make it here at @hivecakeshop. I would help her when needed and answer any questions she might have.
This amazing young woman made this wedding cake all on her own. Baked her own sponges, created the design of the cake from start to finish, and even learned to make Swiss Meringue buttercream from scratch. It was incredible to see her utilize many of the skills she learned from cake camp. It was also great to see her challenging herself with new techniques she wanted to learn.
I could not be more proud of her (and all my students) continuing to chase after their culinary dreams. Her cake is stunning, isn't it?
I can't wait to see what else she creates in the future. Keep slingin' those amazing cakes, Alicia. I'm always rooting for you and always here to help guide you.
