We are delighted to announce that we are putting on a Paul Bradford Sugarcraft School display table exclusively for our Pro members at Cake International (Birmingham, UK) from the 4th to the 6th of November 2016! It has taken a lot of hard work behind the scenes to help make this happen, and Paul and Mish’s persuasive tactics have finally paid off. We’re all really excited about this excellent opportunity to show off what our members are made of!
The display table will allow 36 of our Pro Members to showcase their work at Cake International as part of a larger group display. Paul has chosen a Christmas theme so the display will be made up of a selection of pre-selected designs that are either tutorials on the PBSS website (listed below with links) or from his Christmas Book.

This is an excellent opportunity to display your work at one of the largest cake shows in the world. Magazine coverage has been arranged for the display along with our own social coverage, so this really is an exciting opportunity and great for your CV!
There will be 36 cakes in total and will be allocated strictly on a first come basis. Here´s what´s going to happen:
- An email will go out to all Pro members at 7pm GMT on Monday 13th of June announcing the event. This will also be announced on the private Pro facebook group (if you’re not a member, request access here).
- This advance notice will provide a link to this page allowing Pro members to see the choices of cakes on offer. Note that this is just advance notice as allocation page will not go live until 7pm GMT on Friday 17th of June.
- Members are advised to review the designs on offer and decide which cake they would like to make in advance of the event registration opening.
