Cake Atelier Amsterdam's Famous Sugar Flowers
"Flowers have always triggered my senses like nothing else; engaging sight, smell, and sometimes even taste all at the same time. I believe it’s these senses that help us build lasting memories of the important moments in our lives, the moments we want to celebrate. Therefore my cakes are never complete without sugar flowers. With the cake serving as the ‘grand piece’ to mark a special occasion, my sugar flowers become sweet mementos that can be displayed and treasured forever."
