Debbie Goard's Magic Touch Turns Sweet into Savory

Debbie Goard of Oakland, California (previously at Neatorama) has been making cakes for over twenty years. In that time, her skills have risen to the point that now she regularly makes cakes resembling anything imaginable — except cakes. As illustrated by these photographs, the appearance of Goard's cakes belie their sweet insides. 

“There have been stories about my cakes being on full display for hours before anyone realized it was edible. That’s pretty gratifying,” Goard said.

Goard says that even the most basic designs take her eight hours to make; intricate designs can take her a week or more. Her favorite cakes are food and animals, although she fulfills customer requests at her business Debbie Does Cakes. Check out her website to see more of her artistry.
