“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.

Hi, I’m Debbie, the owner of Sugar Floristry. I’m a passionate lover of nature and the planet. Flowers have always been a huge part of my life – my mum was a talented flower arranger and I seem to have followed in her footsteps but through the medium of sugar.

I first attended Robert’s workshop classes about 5 years ago. My work was average but, I felt something was ‘missing’. Robert’s fun, friendly and relaxed style and his superb teaching progressed my work to another level. His attention to detail is without compare.

This coupled with his astonishing range of quality silicone veiners, cutters and tools make him, in my humble opinion, one of the world’s top sugar flower artists today.

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!"

This masterclass is rich in vital sugar flower and cold porcelain techniques, and can be applied to any other plant specimen I choose to replicate.

I was especially intrigued by how fine we were able to make the connecting and main stems of the plant with flower paste. Something I thought was impossible before.

This class has also helped me to improve my colouring skills. I would never have thought to apply the powdered pigments in a stippling fashion to create intricate markings on the leaves.

This allowed tones of colour to be displayed in a mosaic in the leaves surface instead of being a block colour.

It was as if Robert introduced a new and intriguing technique or tip every time he spoke.

Fine Sugar Leaves

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

If you are making leaves in a more commercial fashion I have included how to master this.

Colouring And Glazing

Here comes the fun part bringing the sugar Sea Oats and leaves 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 and pouncing 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 Sea Oats and leaves.

I then cover 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!
