Architecture of a Cake

Appears in

  • About
When constructing one of my cakes, as with constructing a building, it must be structurally sound, with solid foundations, and the interiors must be able to support the rest of the creation. I make sketches of ideas for dishes, and these are really where I start to make my ideas on flavour pairings a reality, as a finished cake or dessert.
When considering a new cake design, I need to think through the components which will make up the cake, and I try to add contrasts in the form of textures, techniques, colour and flavour – but for the cake to be a success, all of these must be strong enough as a whole and work together well.
