Steve first became interested in cake decoration at the tender age of 14, when he created his first ever Christmas cake decorated in royal icing!

He attended college in 1975 and entered his first competition, in which he received ‘first place’. It was from there that he was hooked with the creativity of sugar mediums and what could be made with it.

Skip a few years and now with 45 years’ experience he has become a fully trained chef, specialist pastry chef and qualified teacher with an array of medals from National and International Competitions, all of which he is rightly very proud of.

Stephen Benison Sugar-Artistry was created over 18 years ago when he designed his first collection. Since then fashion and trends change and his products have evolved with his own style and innovative designs still at the forefront of everything he does.

He is especially loves that his role has allowed him to teach overseas and is a recognised Designer, worldwide. His aim is to inspire others and continue to develop and create new products for all cake enthusiasts out there.
