About Cake & Fondant Art Workshops
My Way of Teaching
I’m all about cutting the fluff and getting you to the good stuff fast. I spent years figuring out fondant art on my own, so I know how confusing it can get. My workshops pack all those lessons into one session. You’ll get the basics and a few insider tricks, so you don’t have to go through the same trial and error.
What You’ll Actually Learn
- I don’t believe in just copying one design. I show you how fondant works, why it acts up sometimes, and what to do when it does.
- You’ll get hands-on with fondant figurine sculpting techniques, learning how to build sturdy shapes and bring personality to your toppers.
- After one class, you’ll be ready to make your own commercial cake topper for any theme - from cartoon birthdays to traditional events like seemantham (baby shower).
Workshop Options
- If you’re a total newbie, my beginner cake decoration class happens in Malleswaram, Bangalore. No experience needed, you’ll walk out with a finished figurine and a bunch of practical skills.
- For folks who already know the basics, there’s an online fondant art tutorial. It’s self-paced, covers advanced stuff like expressive cake character modeling, dynamic poses, and adding real emotion to your figures.
Why I Love This
My favorite part? Watching people create their own stories through cake art. Once you know the basics, you can make cakes for clients, friends, or just for fun - and it’ll actually look pro.

My Story
Started Cake It Easy in 2013, right here in Malleswaram. I’m always excited when clients trust me with their special days – those details matter to me! Sometimes, I get wild requests, like a cake showing two worlds at once, or a 99th birthday. I even geek out over traditional sweets like Sakkare Acchu for Sankranti. And yes, finally using that music note cutter for a karaoke cake? Felt oddly victorious.
My Work
Custom Cakes & Desserts - I make custom story cakes, cupcakes, cookies, macarons, and full dessert tables for all events.
Handmade Figurines & Details - All cake figurines are handmade by me - people, characters, even emotions. Not a fondant fan? I use cookies or chocolate toppers.
Workshops - I run hands-on fondant modelling workshops for anyone who wants to try their hand at cake art.
Local Touch & Traditions - Love adding Bengaluru flavour - Kannada birthday cakes, Sakkare Acchu for Sankranti, and lots of Seemantham cakes.
Pick-up & Cake Care - Everything’s made in Malleswaram for pick-up. Please keep your car AC on, especially in summer - these cakes are delicate!
