Helena Kastanis

With over 15 years experience, Helena Kastanis has been creating edible
works of art and has developed a style that is recognised throughout cake
artistry circles as original, modern and distinctively Sweet Tiers!
From classic, crisp wedding cakes to 3D sculpted edible artworks that
evoke disbelief, Sweet Tiers prides itself on the attention to detail that
separates her work from the crowd.
All cakes are made to measure with personalised service and attention to
the smallest detail - resulting in a true couture cake experience.
Helena’s work has received many accolades and has been published in
Hooray! Magazine, Little One Baby, has adorned the cover of the UK’s
Sweet! Magazine and has been featured in many blogs & editorials.
2014 has been an exciting year, from being asked to create a cake to be
featured in the Kara’s Party Ideas juggernaut earlier this year, teaching and
demonstrating at the Cake, Bake & Sweets Show in Melbourne to winning
the ACDN’s 2014 Decorator of the Year - it’s certainly been a year to
remember!
"With the industry changing the way it has, the larger commercial
businesses disappearing amongst a sea of home based artists coming to
the fore, a flood of international talent teaching in Australia and likewise, a
growing number of Australian talent teaching overseas - it is an exciting
time.
We have more resources available to us than ever before and the talent is
outstanding. I’m so proud to be part of the Australian Cake Artistry scene so proud to have so many wonderful, supportive and generous colleagues
and feel blessed to be in a position to inspire others.
I love the reaction, the happiness that my work brings to people. It is so
rewarding and make the countless hours worthwhile.. I love what I do and
I think it shows! Live life, eat cake!' - Helena
