Olé Glassonburys Sugar Coated

Hand made specialist cakes, bespoke designs just for you

I started training as a chef at the age of 15, I passed NVQ Levels 1 - 3 in General Hotel and Catering.
Before I was 16 I had already decided the direction I was going to take and this was to specialise in desserts, pastries and cakes and I went on to complete NVQ level 4. (Confectionery & Patisserie)
Alongside this I also completed 3 advanced sugar craft and cake decoration courses with Sugar Celebrations.
I worked as a trainee Pastry Chef for a number of years in local hotels and restaurants before becoming the Pastry Chef at The New Inn, Coln St Aldwyns and later moving on to The Bear of Rodborough where I held the same position.
This was followed by Drakes Restaurant of Fairford and then The Amberley Inn Stroud where in time I became Head Chef.
I soon realised that what gave me the most satisfaction was producing delicious cakes and desserts so started making them for friends and family.
