A little bit about the woman behind the business

---

I'm Eilish and I'm the owner, designer and baker behind Peak Patisserie. I live in Matlock, Derbyshire on the edge of the Peak District with my husband and border collie. I started Peak Patisserie after deciding to make my own wedding cake; baking had always been my passion and I wanted to use my big day to let my creativity flourish. I began taking decorating courses and realised that something I'd always dreamed of doing could become a reality. I've always dreamed of a job that I'm passionate about and love doing, as they say if you love your job, you'll never work a day in your life and that's something that I aspire to.

I'm extremely passionate about making wedding cakes and I'm constantly striving for excellence and developing my skills. I believe that no skill is ever perfected so I feel it's important to always continue learning. I've undertaken training with some amazing cake designers including Caroline Jax, Suzanne Esper, Cakes n Crafts and Anna Astashkina among others. With the experience, knowledge and skills I've gained you know you're in safe hands and will have the cake of your dreams. Throughout my training, and taking inspiration from these fabulous teachers, I've learnt that I love a contemporary cake with a minimal style. My love of Pinterest helps me keep up with current trends and explore emerging techniques and styles.
