MEETING A MASTER

Recently I went with my future daughter-in-law Courtney to meet with a cake maker. #1 Son Anthony is marrying Courtney in July, and she asks us to join her in meeting some of the people she will need help from for the wedding.

Arriving at a private residence, Owen Dyer, the owner of Confection Art greeted us warmly and escorted us into his warm home. The man takes pride in his home; work and making people feel good to be there.


After giving us a run-down of his past cakes, ranging in style and imagination, he presented us with about 7 or 8 samples of his work. It was an incredible experience and one that was surprising. Not being a fan of butter cream frostings, I now have a new respect and feeling about it. The man is a master of the oven and the pallet of tongue and art.

If you are attending the wedding, you will be enjoying one great piece of cake, one that is filled with imagination, flavor and originality!

The Lovely Courtney (TLC) is on fire with plans as the bride, selecting a great photographer, Patrick McNamara, Confection Art for her cake, and the York Harbor Inn for her reception. Her and #1 Son’s Mad Men theme is going off with a bang, from colors to décor, every step of the way, it is a creative wedding!
