Cake Education with a Difference.
Too many tutorials online give you only one piece of the puzzle, leaving you to figure everything else out on your own.
Too many communities online breed endless spam and negativity.
Too many programs online don't take into consideration each person's unique level and abilities.
We Take a Wholesome Approach
to Cake Decorating
The Practical Stuff: Think core stacking techniques, cake construction, polished finishes, client-approved recipes
The Fun Stuff: Think modern decorations, new experimental mediums, gelatine, chocolate, fondant, buttercream, painting, wafer and rice paper galore.
The Deep Stuff: Think positive mindset, discovering your unique cake style and developing your design abilities.
The Overwhelming/Tedious Stuff: Think financials, admin, emails, marketing, pricing and problem-solving.

"I have taken a lot of cake courses over the years, paid and free classes; this is one of the best classes ever!

Iva Humar
CIA gives you: so many different techniques, details and knowledge in one place. And the CIA cake community is there all the time to support you. It's a great concept and I love it. The best thing about CIA academy is that you can learn about the business side and get some great templates and guidance. If I have to describe it in 1 sentence, the CIA gave me confidence and a great amount of knowledge to express myself in the cake world."

Sarah @bake.works
Not only does it give access to Amanda’s amazing courses and guides, it also opens the opportunity to be part of an incredible community of bakers. Amanda is sharing her valuable knowledge and techniques across so many areas which really transformed my skills and my business.
I can only highly recommend the CIA, no matter if you love decorating cakes in your free time or turned it into a career.

Real Stories: Jessica Ann's CIA Experience..
"For as long as I can remember I have always wanted to turn my hobby of baking cakes into a business. During COVID-19 my husband sent me a link to Amanda’s CIA ad and as soon as I opened it up, I was hooked… It was the sign I was looking for! The Cake Insider Academy is not a download and see you later approach, it’s a nurture and inspire program that I’m so grateful to be a part of! Xx
My cake business didn’t exist until the day I logged into the CIA for the first time. Since then, my cake hobby has morphed very quickly into a thriving business.
What was life changing for me was understanding my niche, finding my avatar (my ideal client) and refining my direction so I was clear on exactly what I wanted from my business. All the way down to what days I wanted to keep free for my family! Even as a working mum of two and a FIFO wife, this is how easy it is to follow!
I am now excited to say I’m able to hand in my notice at my current job and focus 100% on my business! All within 4 months!
Thank you for all that you do and the CIA has done for me! I will be forever in your debt, such a life-changing experience for me”
- Jessica Ann, from The Botanical Bakery, WA @thebotanicalcakery_

Real Stories: Jess White's CIA Experience..
I have recently decided to take my home cake decorating hobby and turn it into a home based business. I decided I wanted to be part of THIS academy because I knew at a glance with everything it offered.... it was everything I needed to point me in the right direction armed with all the tools I needed to be the decorator I wanted to be.
Before starting with Sugar Sugar Cake school I had done countless novelty cakes that were time consuming, kept me for hours on end away from my family and I knew that the returns on these cakes as a business would not be worth my family sacrifices. I needed and wanted to change my caking style to suit my personality and passions... and knew Amanda could get me there!
So far this school has taught me so many things I didn't even know I needed to know, it has provided detailed step by step guides to setting up my business, giving order to prioritize these steps, templates, recipes, new skills and so much more. It has so far been an invaluable resource for me and I am always excited to see what is added next!
I would absolutely recommend this Cake school to anyone looking to develop new skills and to grow or start up their business. To have someone you trust there for every step, guiding you and supporting you through every new milestone is priceless. Thank you Amanda - Jessica White, Gallery Cakes, SA @gallery__cakes
