Art with a sweet touch

Cakes with a taste of happiness, decorated with the aroma of memories. It is a sort of a magical kingdom, made with sugar, sprinkled with colors. For more than 15 years, Melissa Miret has poured her talent and her soul into creating a very important guest at weddings: the cake.

The color that re+ects the bride’s dress, the texture that draws the style of the celebration, the +owers that tell the love story of those who will be sharing their lives, and the taste of the future that they will have together. It is a story that repeats itself, but at the same time it is different. No two cakes are the same. Each one has its own personality.

The challenges are multiple and sometimes the cakes have to be built in the room where the reception will take place. The skill in decorating is combined with that of a circus artist, since the pastry chef must have impeccable balance and equilibrium when moving those heavy cakes in very small hallways, or in very fast elevators.

Melissa takes the time to understand the meaning of each ceremony and thus be able to capture her talent in such a sweet creation.

In the fascinating universe of weddings, each detail has its own tradition, history and meaning, and that is why one of the most emblematic elements is, without a doubt, the cake.

Beyond being a delicious culinary masterpiece, the giant dessert carries deep symbolism. Melissa loves that new couples and their guests discover the charm behind the cake.

For Melissa, one of the most endearing moments at weddings is when the cake is cut. The newlyweds take the knife together and cut the 8rst slice, which represents overcoming challenges and the promise of sharing life together. But that's not all, this ceremony is followed by the delicate gesture of feeding each other, showing the willingness to care for each other. By understanding the meaning and evolution of this essential element, we can further appreciate the beauty behind each slice shared on this special day.
