About the Author

Robyn King is a qualified pastry chef with 40 years experience in the industry. She is a very experienced cake/cookie decorator/teacher,and regularly does demonstrations at specific functions. Robyn belongs to cake/cookie decorating groups where she is able to not only share many years of knowledge but also learn new techniques and tips from other members.

Her passion started when, as a young child, Robyn remembers standing on a chair making cookies with her mother. At the age of 14 she attended a local Community College where she learnt the finer details of decorating. This knowledge was the key factor in gaining work experience which then led to an apprenticeship as a pastry cook. During this time Robyn won numerous awards in every category of Stage 1, II and II at Technical College.

In 2013 Robyn opened her own shop The Embellished Cake Creations supplying decorating equipment, baking products, and running classes – whilst continuing to keep her hand in decorating wedding/special occasion cakes and cookies.

Embellished Cookies is Robyn’s first book.
