On today's episode of All in the Industry®, host Shari Bayer chats with Margaret Braun of Margaret Braun Studio, a sugar artist &amp; pioneering cake designer, whose work transcends edible media to sculpture, illustration, design &amp; ceramics.  Margaret’s boundary-breaking work which fuses the food arts with the fine arts has taken her to the Middle East where she created 2,000 cakes for a Royal Wedding, to Venice with a tiered sugar mosaic for a Masquerade Ball at Palazzo Grassi, and to a castle in Ireland for a Rock Star's wedding.  Based in New York, Margaret had an 8-month residency at The Museum of Arts and Design where she completed an installation of 2,000 hand-hewn sugar cups. She is the author of Cakewalk (2001, Rizzoli), and her work has been featured extensively in film and print. Today's show also features Shari's PR tip, Speed Round, Industry News, and Solo Dining experience at Mark Iacono's popular pizzeria Lucali in Brooklyn, NYC.

Episode 186: Margaret Braun

Margaret Braun, the author of Cakewalk, is a New York‐based artist who has redefined the art of cake decorating. In the 1980s, Margaret worked her way through various New York bakeries developing a distinctive, boundary‐breaking style that fuses the food arts to the fine arts. Her various projects have included creating 2,000 wedding cakes for a royal wedding in the Middle East and Marilyn Manson's wedding cake in a castle in Ireland; making a sugar mosaic sculpture at a Venetian palazzo; decorating a dance company with icing in Berlin; and and fashioning a 30‐foot‐tall DayGlo firework‐blasting cake sculpture. As an artist in residence at the Museum of Arts and Design in New York earlier this year, she completed an installation called 2,000 Sugar Cups. This project was a reflection on her work in the kitchen and was an exercise on how individuality can thrive when set against sameness.
