For the Love of Art & Cake
Welcome to Palette!
Here you will find a culmination of the two greatest passions in my life: Art and Pastry. Palette is a collection of my projects in the culinary and artistic world and the joy it brings to people's lives through these unique creations.
Because my honest belief is that art, food (and all that they both entail) and the people that we share them with, are the greatest and most important ingredients to making a happy life.
So grab a picnic basket (don’t forget the Thermos!), have a bite and let’s enjoy the view!
How it started…
Palette started with a simple idea - to bring joy through delicious and stunning cakes that would ‘Wow’ even the harshest critique.
As I went along, I found myself caught in the all too common traps of the Hospitality (and Modern Work) lifestyle: complete and utter burnout. I had to learn to slow down. To take care of myself both mentally and physically. It is a battle I still struggle with today.
I went back to something I always found solace in as a child: the arts. Whether it’s watching a movie for the amazing costumes and sets, or drawing my favourite characters, the arts has always provided me solace in trying times. So I started drawing and painting again. And I came to remember why I went into Patisserie to start with. The creation of something from the simplest things: flour and eggs into mouth watering pastries or pencil rubbing on paper to create a story - it’s like magic!
So Palette evolved, just as I am, but the goal ultimately remains the same: to bring joy!
