Location: New York, NY Occupation: Owner, “Cakes By Jay” E-mail: info@jayscakecouture.com At the age of 27, Jay is the young, brash owner of Cakes by Jay. Considered the premier wedding cake maker on Long Island, Jay has had to prove himself to the industryʼs established pastry chefs and decorators. After graduating from Johnson and Wales University in 2001 with a degree in Baking and Pastry Arts, he studied under Chefs Aaron Morgan, Carroll Dougall and Nicholas Lodge. At the age of 21, he was named Winner, Best Wedding Cake, at the “International Food Show” in November 2003. Jay has also been named Winner, Best Decorated Cake, at the “Evening of Good Taste” in March 2006. In September of that same year, Jay opened his designer cake shop in Glen Cove, NY. Jay has been featured on five Food Network challenges and walked away with two wins. This year, his work will be featured in celebrity wedding planner David Tuteraʼs new book. Jay says he loves to crack wise and has no problem sharing his opinions. “Any sort of plastic topper is out,” says Jay. “Shortening in the icing is out. Cakes that look like theyʼre falling over are out. The tiered cakes where you see through the layers are out, out, out!” |
