Julia Child said, “A party without cake is just a meeting.” With cake holding such an important role, choosing a delicious and beautiful cake can elevate your gathering from mundane to magical. Artist Natalie Tischler certainly understands this sentiment.
Natalie Tischler began painting abstract landscapes on canvas with watercolors and acrylics. After discovering a palette knife, Tischler began to wonder if her canvas could be expanded to the top of a cake. Upon receiving an invitation to a friend’s cake party, she thought, “This is my chance to go all out.” And she did. None of the party guests had ever seen anything like her cake canvas, and Tischler quickly decided to add buttercream frosting and a food-grade paintbrush to her artistic toolbox.
As an artist, Natalie mixes the colors herself to get unique shades for her frosting paintings. Her creativity even stretches to the fillings, ranging from cookies to jam to chocolate pearls. “A filling is a fun surprise people are not expecting when they take a bite,” adds Natalie. She works from a landscape photograph or her imagination to create a stunning painting on the cake.
