Susan enrolled in her first cake decorating class 11 years ago and after that, "The Game Was On"!! She just couldn't get enough of this wonderful world of Sugar Art.

She then began entering cake shows, joining cake clubs, and then proceeded to start teaching cake decorating classes just one year later. After that she began working as the lead designer for a bakery in Dana Point, California, helping it to become one of the most sought out bakeries in Orange County. During that time, she began giving Sugar Art instruction and Demonstrations across the nation. Susan's "Edible Works of Art" have won numerous awards and been featured in magazines such as American Cake Decorator, as well as been featured on the Food Network's show "Top Five".

Most recently, Susan has been making cake decorating instructional videos for an on line company called YummyArts.com and in March of 2008 opened her own Cake and Candy Supply Store called The Cake Cottage which is located in Murrieta, California.
