Bake My Day
For Tamara Rutschmann, the best part of creating wedding-day treats is meeting the couples and making something that’s representative of them. Rutschmann says she has created glamorous tiered wedding cakes, as well as cakes that are fun and quirky (think fantasy-themed treats and animal figurines hidden in cakes for pet-lovers). Rutschmann also loves preparing mini-dessert tables, which can include macarons, tarts and colourful sugar cookies. “I strive to make sure everything is freshly baked and use simple ingredients and made-from-scratch sauces and pureés,” she says. “I love to play with design, but I let the ingredients stand out first!”
