Teri Pringle Wood – USA

Teri

Three years ago I decided to decorate Valentine cookies for friends. It didn’t take long for me to know I was going to have to do a little practice especially since I fell in love with European traditional cookie art. So for the last three years I have practiced with enthusiasm and passion, I look forward to working with Katy Sue and their beautifully detailed moulds to inspire other cookie designs.

Lareefa Ghazaly – Lankan Cake Craft – Sri Lanka

Lareefa
I’m Lareefa Ghazaly and I’m a British citizen. I moved from the UK and settled in Sri Lanka in 2012. After I moved to Sri Lanka, I started admiring cake decorators and then completed my PME diploma and Wilton courses in an institute in Sri Lanka. Later, I started a company named Lankan Cake Craft and I’m presently doing cakes for orders, cake classes and also selling cake decorating equipment such as moulds and lace mats.

Julie Rogerson – Julie’s Cake In A Box – UK

Julie Design Team MemberI have always enjoyed arts and crafts, although my drawing skills leave a lot to be desired, so usually stick to the crafts and sewing side of things!

Baking has always been a big part of my life, both as a child with my mum and then later with my own 3 children as they were growing up. It seemed like a natural progression to combine my 2 interests and from there my passion for decorating cakes began.

I attended a cake class at a local cake shop, where I decorated my first cake 4 years ago. A year later I started my business, Julie’s Cake in a Box, which I currently run alongside my job as a nursery nurse in a local primary school (often found at the playdough table making models and flowers!). I am, however, working towards my goal of being a full time cake designer.

As much as I love a well decorated cake, I firmly believe that cakes should always taste as good as they look!

I am so thrilled and excited to be joining the Katy Sue Design Team because I love using moulds, they are so versatile and easy to use. I think Katy Sue moulds are the best in the market, both in quality and choice of designs. I cannot wait to get started!

Sue Pinnick – Yummy Cakes By Sue – UK

Sue Design Team Member

I’ve been a self-employed cake decorator at home for over 10 years and I absolutely love my job. I’ve been married for almost 13 years and have 2 wonderful children. My daughter Zoe is 12 and my son Andrew is 10.

I’m a fully accredited teacher and demonstrator using Patchwork Cutters and this has allowed me to demonstrate and teach around the UK and in Europe.

I get invited by Cake World Germany to demonstrate and sell their products at all of their cake shows. I’ve been learning German for 2 years so I can demonstrate in German. I’ve been to Hamburg, Friedrichshafen, Copenhagen, Austria, Hanover and the Cake & Bake show in Dortmund.

I’ve had an article published in Cake Craft and Decoration magazine and had loads of my customer cakes published in Party Cakes magazine.

I recently participated in an 80’s themed collaboration and would love to be part of another one.
Why do I love Katy Sue products? That’s easy…. Not only are they all beautiful, but they are so easy to use and they are affordable.

Zoe Smith – Bluebird Cakes – UK

Zoe Design Team Member

I’m a mum of two from the North East who fell into cake decorating about nine years ago. Now I’m obsessed! I have an art/fashion background and always have to be creating something.

I came second last year at the Cake and Bake show in Manchester, the first time I’ve competed and also have had tutorials published in Cake Decoration magazine this year, two had the front cover of their supplements. Also had a two page interview in Squires cake decoration magazine. I also have over 680k followers on Pinterest.

I love Katy Sue moulds (use the bunting lettering mould lots).

Georgie Godbold – UK

Georgie Design Team Member I have always been a sugarcrafter, I just love working with sugar and trying all the new ideas decorating cakes, but my overall passion Is designing. (Note book and pencil always ready in my handbag and beside table!!!!)

I created my quirky ‘Sugar Wobbly’ characters in 2010 and my first book was published in 2012. I demonstrate my work home and abroad. And will be travelling to New Zealand at the end of October to give workshops and demonstration. My sugarcraft creations have been shown in many magazines and I have also demonstrated on Cake Academy and Create and Craft Television.

I am a busy person, retired early and have never stopped designing and creating. You have to love what you do and that is me.

Sarah Harris – The Cupcake Range – UK

Sarah Harris Design Team Member

I have a passion for baking which I have had since being a child, but more recently I enjoy mostly decorating cupcakes. A few years back I went on a basic cupcake decorating course and I loved it so much I have continued with it ever since.

It is a hobby, I bake only for family and friends, often as a surprise gift to commemorate an occasion such as a birthday, Christmas, Mother’s Day or baby arrival. My family are strong believers in celebrating each birthday with a cake and I have never missed out myself in receiving a birthday cake each year. I have made a birthday cake for my Mum pretty much every year since I was a child and she is now in her 70s!

I have two sons, one now has a place of his own some distance away from our home, but I still made sure he got a homemade birthday cake last year which I sent him through the post! During the day I work as an Audit Manager in local government. I have worked for the same organisation since the year I got married which was in 1988.

With encouragement from friends I set up a Facebook page and called it The Cupcake Range

About 3 and a half years ago I retired and started taking the online cake decorating classes with Craftsy and found a whole wonderful world of cake decorating and cookie decorating.

Gilles Leblanc – Les Gâteaux de Gilles – Canada

Gilles Design Team Member

Born and raised in Montreal Canada, Gilles Leblanc was the youngest of six children. His interests in the arts were present at a very young age, and very much encouraged by his mother who shared similar interests. His pastimes as a child were always based around the arts, whether sculpting or painting, he enjoyed experimenting with different materials. As time passed, his passion and curiosity grew and Gilles Leblanc wanted to pursue a career. Being a perfectionist, he enrolled in a well renowned jewellery school, to better perfect his knowledge of the various metals. It wasn’t long after that Gilles work was exhibited in various art galleries and featured in different magazines. Electroforming, bronze, silver and even gold gave Gilles Leblanc’s pieces their originality, and unique quality.

Gilles Leblanc eventually had to put his sculpting and career on hold, but his passion for the arts never died. He later discovered the art of cake decorating, and his passion was renewed. Gilles Leblanc’s talent in sculpting, and original ideas succeeded in creating many diversified cake pieces. Gilles Leblanc has also taken part in many cake collaborations, and has been featured in various magazines, earning him the admiration of his peers.
