“I love the challenge of making bespoke products, and I love to push boundaries,” says London cake designer Emma Dodi. One look at her artistic creations and it’s clear that she has pushed well past those boundaries as she expertly captures the personalities, characters, and styles of her clients. Emma’s goal is to translate the vision of each person into reality, bringing elegance and romance to every design.
While the talented baker has always had an artistic eye, it wasn’t until a friend suggested she take a cake-decorating class that she realized her calling. That led to the official launch of Emma Dodi Cakes in 2016. But cakes are not the only confections she creates. The baker is also known for her hand-painted macarons. These intricately detailed sweets appear as dainty pieces of art that almost seem too beautiful to eat.
Even with so much focus on the aesthetics of her creations, Emma doesn’t overlook the importance of taste. She constantly experiments with new methods and flavors that keep customers coming back. By using only the finest ingredients, Emma ensures that the inside of each cake is just as exquisite as the outside. emmadodicakes.com
