Hi. My name's Mary de Soto; While I graduated with a degree in viticulture and enology, I found that my real passion is all food and drink. In particular, sweets. Cakes, cookies, puddings, you name it, and I want to make it... and most likely eat it, too.
After watching the amazing cakes created on Food Network challenges, I decided to try to do it for myself, and that was the start of another obsession. Sculpted cakes. I'd done work in clay before, but I hadn't been interested because... Well, because I couldn't eat it. This was the best of both worlds. I could sculpt and carve like with clay and wood, and it was delicious.
After creating a few more, I knew I'd found what I wanted to do, if I could, for the rest of my life. Bake sweets, make cakes, and make people happy.
