Pastry Art & Me
MEET Pastry Chef Valeria Koulikova
Hi there!
​
Thanks for stopping by! Who am I, you wonder, and why should you order a designer cake from me?
​
My pastries are my passion and I craft every single one of them with precision, love, and, of course, only premium ingredients and the best chocolate out there - Cacao Barry and Callebaut.
​
I've always loved baking and cooking ever since I was about 9 years old but could never get the courage to get into field. When I saw the buzz the modern pastry arts have been creating around the world and tried making some myself - I was in love. I could not take my eyes off the shiny and delectable mirror glaze or those scrumptious bi-color croissants.
​
And every time a new mesmerizing design makes itself on a cake for someone special, I feel humbled and grateful for my customers choosing me to create special moments with their loved ones and friends.
​
Taught by world-renowned pastry chefs such as Dinara Kasko and Amaury Guichon, I specialize in modern European pastry arts such as mousse cakes with the famous mirror-glaze and velvety chocolate velour, tarts, eclairs, and more!

The Slice
Creamy and melt-in-your-mouth layers of flavors
Mousse cakes are the hype of today's pastry world but many people are still not familiar with their essence. What's the basic formula for a mousse cake?
1. Mousse - fluffy and creamy, chocolate or berry or even wine flavored!
2. Layers of goodness - berry confit, compote, chocolate ganache, cremeux, caramel, and more!
3. Crunchy layer - you can't have a mousse cake without adding a little something to add a different texture to the desert
4. Sponge - moist and rich to provide another flavor as well as a good foundation for the dessert

Disclaimer: Every cake that I make is custom made. There are no machines that are creating the mirror glaze and the design on each cake. Not one cake will be exactly the same as the photo that you sent that you'd like me to make/replicate. The shades of the colors on the photos might be a bit different from the real thing, the pattern on the glaze will never be the same even though the same colors and techniques are being used. The cakes are very artistic and are not meant to be exact copies of each other. You will get an absolute custom design each time you order even when referencing a specific design from my collection. Please make be aware when placing your order. Thank you<3
