Jewelry Business Guru by Cindy Edelstein

Cake is the New Jewelry ~ Kate Sullivan named Top Trendsetter

In writing this blog I try to keep it all business -- this is not one of those blogs you'll read where I wax poetic about my child (even though she's FANTASTIC) nor my spouse (even though he is equally FANTASTIC) nor my thoughts on Hilary vs. Obama. This is a business blog aimed at helping jewelry designers grow and prosper.

But just this one time I digress..... to brag about the coolest cake artist on the East Coast (Ace of Cake's Duff not withstanding).... Kate Sullivan of LovinSullivanCakes and www.cakepower.com.

Tomorrow night she's being named one of the Top 25 Trendsetters by Modern Bride magazine. She deserves the evening all to herself -- although I'm sure the other 24 folks are quite lovely, too.

So when next you think you'd want a custom cake -- something that truly expresses your love, your wedding or best of all, your jewelry (see I can't keep business out of any post!) then contact Kate at [email protected] and get the best of the best.
