Anna MathewAnna is a normal woman like you and me but the lady has got a remarkable talent that defines her; with an artful attitude, the custom made sculptured cakes from her cake boutique ‘Cake Canvas’ are hard to resist. 

Anna calls “Art her Passion” and thanks her parents for recognizing this and directing her energies into the world of art. A gold medallist in Fine Arts, Anna has dabbled in various forms of art – from Charcoal and pencil sketches to Water color and Oil on canvas, from embroidery to dancing but that was until baking and designing cakes happened. Anna Mathew’s first cake conquest was Veda’s farm, and since then she’s having and eating her cake!

Her business ‘Cake Canvas’ positions itself on customization. It starts with a theme of the occasion and the central color preferred by each client. The rest unfurls with her relentless creativity. Going beyond the beauty of cake, she looks into complimenting it with fine taste, her favourites include Bavarian chocolate. Anna says, “Cake Canvas excels to surpass the expectations of each customer and considers their satisfied smiles and their pleasantly surprised faces as the best bonus for almost a week of effort at making each sculpture as perfect as possible.´ She makes the cakes stand out with an oomph when she does the 3D sculpting of real life caricatures and here’s the icing of the story, she never repeats her design, making your cake always memorable.

Anna MathewHaving a spot on eye for the consumers’ taste, Anna iced her creativity with business. “Customers in Kerala have a taste for art and their good taste is reflected in the fabulously arty themes they want to incorporate as part of a celebration. Gone or going are the days of cutting a fresh crème pastry cake for a birthday, now a designer cake has to warm the hearts of the connoisseurs too, “she quotes. Keeping up in demand of all the clients, she still balances her life at both home and work.  To avoid the tediousness, she preps one design a week. Her motto is sensible balance and she believes in setting one’s own pace. 

There do come the sleepless nights, since her crafting requires a lot of patience. Her biggest challenge so far was the Kadakali cake. It was tough task to place the tall Kathakali with the low centre of gravity on its two legs. In the world of sugar, spice and everything nice, Cake Canvas goes beyond a celebration. If cakes could not be any more sensational, we know these cakes leave you with the wonderment of its Belgian chocolate ganache, and you indulge at last with the sounds of smacking lips. Care for some cake now?
