About Me
Hello, everyone.
I'm Hannah Hsu, I am originally from Tainan, a city in Taiwan, but I currently live in New York.
I graduated from the Institute of Culinary Education to study Pastry and Baking Art in 2018. After graduating from ICE, I have gotten several cake-related decorating and instructor certifications.
您好，我是漢娜，我來自台南，現定居紐約。我在2018年於紐約的ICE烘焙藝術專業畢業。
之後陸續從台灣韓國等地區取得許多不同蛋糕裝飾、甜點的證照與講師證照。
I specialize in piping floral cake, Japanese- style wagashi, frosted cookies, meringue cookies, and Taiwanese desserts. I also teach cake decorating classes.
我的專業在裱花蛋糕、和菓子、糖霜餅乾、敲敲蛋糕、馬林糖與臺式甜點。
也有教學生如何裝飾蛋糕、製作蛋糕。
What's so special about my cakes? My recipes come from Taiwan and Japan, so they are less sweet than U.S. bakeries and they will give you that WOW feeling when you take a bite into them.
On this website, I share my work and my life as a baker.
Please contact me for more information about placing orders and the type of classes I offer.
