These flowers made of sugar paste are so lifelike, you’ll be tempted to water them. Crafted by the multi-award winning cake decorator and sugarcraft artist Catalina Anghel of Spain, these edible flora are crafted by her own unique freeform method – made without templates or special cutting tools.

Catalina Anghel has always loved the world of creative confectionary and in the past few years it has become her passion and profession. What began as mere curiosity has turned into a self-professed addiction and her passion has become a necessity. “Without my flowers I do not know how to live” says Catalina.

I’m lucky to have a job that I love. Teaching is what I like the most. I love seeing the expression of joy on the faces of the students when they manage to make delicate flowers with their own hands.- Catalina Anghel
