My time spent studying Patisserie & Confectionery at Barking & Dagenham College is so special to me. I got to learn so much and make fantastic new friends. My 2 years studying let me realise my dreams, and gave me the knowledge and confidence to push myself and excel in the world of cake and sugar art, leading me to compete at an international level, set up my own business, and even to go on to win a TV show.
