We are so excited to welcome Ekat's cakes and chocolate to Cake and Bake International this year!
Presented by Prop Options, Ekat will be running a full day Haute Couture Cake workshop on Saturday 1st November which is not to be missed! Spaces are strictly limited, so book NOW to secure your space.
In this exclusive workshop, you will create an elegant three-tier square cake — a sophisticated shape that demands precision — while mastering:
*Fondant Fabric Textures – covering your cake with smooth fondant and creating elegant, fashion-inspired impressions using designer-style moulds.
*Working with Different Types of Fondant – understanding their properties and how to choose the right one for your project.
*Fondant Flexibility Secrets – how to make fondant flexible and keep it that way for a long time.
*Paneling Method – achieving sharp edges and perfect finishes on a square cake.
*Signature Edible Crepe Paper – from Ekat’s celebrated Crinkle Couture class, learn to transform wafer paper into delicate, pleated edible fabric to cover cakes for a haute couture effect.
*Crepe Paper Bows (Bonus) – create dramatic, show-stopping edible bows that bring high-fashion flair to your design.
*Fast-Method Wafer Paper Peonies – craft realistic, elegant blooms using Ekat’s efficient approach:
*Forming refined wafer paper petals
*Creating collars and lifelike centres
*Mastering shaping and colouring techniques for a natural, romantic look
By the end of the day, you’ll have completed your own couture-style square cake featuring textured fondant, edible fabric finishes, and stunning wafer paper florals — a true showpiece ready to inspire clients and elevate your portfolio.
This class is perfect for cake designers ready to add fashion-inspired finishes, advanced fondant handling, and luxury floral techniques to their repertoire.
