Cakes for Men

Welcome to our August 2018 issue - this one is all about Cakes for Men, featuring a collaboration organised by Sharon Spradley, a much-loved Aussie who lives in the USA. We interview international cake decorating icon Paul Bradford, as well as ACDN member Christopher Beard, and feature tutorials from some of Australia's leading decorators and ACDN members. I hope you enjoy this issue as much as we enjoyed creating it, and we look forward to seeing lots of cakes created for Father's Day this year using tutorials from this issue!
