The International School of Sugarcraft
Margaret Ford discovered her interest in cake decorating at catering college in Aberdeen. She began to design original and innovative equipment and, about ten years ago, with her husband David, created the Celcakes specialist range of products for cake decorators. Margaret has travelled extensively in the UK and overseas demonstrating her skills. She regularly visits the US and Holland and has also taught in South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Hong Kong and Argentina. Since writing books 1 and 2 Nicholas Lodge has continued to travel around the world, teaching and demonstrating sugarcraft. In 1991, he moved from the UK to live in Atlanta, Georgia, USA, where he set up the International Sugar Art Collection (ISAC). In 1995, the International Sugar Art Gallery was opened in Japan. This Tokyo based school and retail operation serves as the centre for Nicholas's Pacific Rim operations. Nicholas is heavily involved in ICES, an America-based convention that is held each year. In 2001 he was inducted into the Hall of Fame. He is the youngest person that this honour has been bestowed upon.--This text refers to thePaperbackedition.
