“SUGAR REFLECTIONS OF NATURE’S PERFECTION”

These are the slogan words I have used on my main website. This captivates everything I am trying to accomplish along my edible art journey. 
However, do you feel that certain levels of sugarcraft are unachievable or out of reach?

HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED HOW TO ADD IN THOSE PERFECT NATURAL FINISHING TOUCHES TO DRAMATICALLY ELEVATE YOUR SUGAR FLOWERS, GIVING YOU AN ENORMOUS SENSE OF PRIDE?

  • Does the very idea of knowing where and how to begin the colouring process fill you with dread? 
  • Have you struggled in the past giving natural movement to your work?
  • Have you always had a preconceived idea that natural-looking sugar flowers take an age to create?
Mother nature is so perfect because of her imperfections, be bold, add the flaws into your sugar craft, and watch your work come alive.

Everyone on the planet can reference and appreciate the magnificent beauty of mother nature.

 
I gladly share the exact products I use and how I turn a simple sugar petal or leaf into something visually extraordinary.

All of my working practices and techniques are easily adapted to other sugar flower projects.

  • I could teach you how to colour with confidence and provide information on how to achieve the best results.
  • I can explain the best way how to build up coloured tones and create different textures just by holding a paintbrush at different angles. 
  • You could work in a tidier more structured way, providing you with a calming and focused environment ensuring you achieve continual success.
  • I can show you how to work in a quicker, more commercially viable, and efficient way, ensuring maximum productivity.

I teach precise, methodical many steps; with practice and repetition, you'll be amazed at how quickly stunning results can be achieved.

Nothing gives me greater pleasure than trying to replicate mother nature herself, into an edible art form.

Using the Right Tools For The Job!


The most important aspect of my craft is the actual flower paste (Sugar)

I have been incredibly lucky to have had the opportunity to design my very own brand of flower paste developed especially for my exacting requirements, by Smartflex.
The paste we brought to market has the scent of fresh strawberries and performs like a dream…. I couldn't be happier with its incredible qualities.

"I'M PROUD TO BE YOUR STUDENT!"

I have been following and admiring Robert's art of sugar flowers for many years. Living in Canada makes it challenging to attend any of Robert's live classes in person, so when he announced his online Anemone, Hosta plant & Sea Oat arrangement masterclass, I seized the opportunity.

Seeing the sugar Hosta plant coming to life under Robert's Master touch was very inspiring. I found painting the Hosta leaves very enjoyable, Robert's ability to put one at ease got me totally immersed in the challenge.

Using Robert's botanically correct veiners and cutters is a major asset for this masterclass, making the whole process easier and more satisfying. I would highly recommend this masterclass to anyone who is looking for the best.

HOSTA PLANT MASTERCLASS MODULES

MODULE 1

Variegated Hosta Leaves

In this first group of videos, I show you how to make various sizes of wired Hosta leaves using two sizes of cutters. 

I then progress and show you how to free hand cut out different shapes and sizes of Hosta leaves.

Correcting exposed wires is probably one of my favourite tips to share, as sometimes not everything goes to plan. In this video I share just how incredible my premium flower paste is and how it can seamlessly blend to correct perfectly.

I then explain all about the process of using botanically correct silicone veiners and how to get the most perfect results.

In this group of videos, I explain the dynamics of colouring and how to colour the base tone of flower paste.

I show you how to make the individual wired sugar stamens and pistils using my tried and tested methods.

I then take you through a number of processes to create these beautifully veined sugar Hosta flowers.

Colouring And Glazing

Here comes the fun part bringing the sugar flowers and closed buds to life using my own brand of edible petal dusts.

I show how to mix coloured tones using my handmade paint brush sets, explain how to build up texture and depth by over dusting techniques.

I then take you through the whole process of making edible paints using my matt setting glaze, to colour the variegation markings on the Hosta leaves.

I then cover all aspects of the wet glazing process using my edible setting glazes.

Final thoughts from me…

 

If you are wanting to elevate the standard and overall realistic appearance of your sugar flowers, then look no further… this isn't a job for me, it’s my Life…

 

I was showing one of my Italian student’s how to master one of my signature techniques, she turned around and said “you are sneaky like the Fox” I said "Anything is achievable in sugar"
And so, my nickname The Sugar Fox was born!
