  Welcome to ICES!

Are you interested in cake decorating? Would you like to improve your sugar art skills? Do you need a fabulously decorated cake for an upcoming event?

 

Welcome to the International Cake Exploration Societé (ICES), an organization comprised of over 4000 sugar artists, cake decorators and vendors from all over the world. Our sugar art masterpieces can be as small as one exquisite gum paste rose or as large as the beautiful towering sugar sculptures you've seen on televised competitions. Whether you'd like to learn more about the sugar art craft, or if you've been teaching cake decorating for years, ICES has a place just for you.
