Bring Beautiful Cakes to LifeAt Trophy, cake decorators are artists. With practiced hands, a great eye, and a few simple tools, they turn buttercream and cake into joy. We re looking for an experienced Lead Cake Decorator to help shape the next chapter of our cake program. Someone who loves the craft, has serious technical skills, works with speed and confidence, and gets excited about helping other decorators grow.

This isn t an entry-level decorating role. We re looking for someone who already knows their way around a cake ~ filling, stacking, frosting, piping, flowers, borders, lettering, buttercream work, and beautiful finishes. You may have learned your craft in an independent bakery, grocery bakery, specialty cake shop, or somewhere completely different. Where you learned matters less than what you can do and the pride you take in doing it well. If you re the decorator other people watch because you make it look easy, we d love to meet you.
