Nicola Hemming, applications technologist at Renshaw:

"Terry’s design immediately caught our eye and his broad use of sugarpaste techniques clearly showed both his versatility as a sugarcrafter and imagination as a designer. The finish of the cake was faultless and Terry’s attention to detail was outstanding. He made great use of the product to create a unique design, which particularly showed off his modelling skills.

"One of the main things we were looking for was a broad use of colour in the winning design. We also felt that Terry was a fitting ambassador for keen sugarcrafters everywhere and a fine example of the outstanding talent that is clearly out there in the sugarcraft arena.
