maile
\ my - leh \ noun
indigenous vine or shrub found in wet forests throughout the Hawaiian islands
In ancient Hawaiian ceremonies, a strand of maile is used to bind the bride and groom together to symbolize commitment and union. It is also employed as a peace offering in times of war.
Nowadays, maile leis are used by people of all classes to mark important life events; weddings, proms, hula performances and commemorations.
A symbol of respect, peace, friendship and love
Beautiful to look at, and heavenly to smell, the maile lei embodies the spirit of Aloha
Intention Statement
Embracing beauty in imperfection
Each cake is designed for the artistic journey and experience to be earned. I design cakes for the quality in taste and artistry; not necessarily for the quantity. Sometimes less is more.
I take on projects that align the most with my artistic style, vision and abilities; hence, I may reject certain projects that do not match my vision. I work best within my limits and capabilities as an artist!
Each cake is unique and different, because each couple is different. I provide a balance between what is trendy versus, what is unique. Behind each cake design, there is intentional planning and collaboration between artist and client.
Cake design is a journey. I work closely with clients to find the right design, and make it enjoyable and effortless. Creating art is a journey with many lessons and experienced to be earned.
