Delia Athey-

Delia Athey says, I am a Financial Professional with Prudential Financial in San Francisco for the last 3 years after spending 29 years in telecommunications and 4 years in a medical office.

My passion is being a semi-professional cake baker and decorator for the past 34 years specializing in “look-a-like” cakes of logos, graphics and photos. My work can be seen at http://www.deliasdesserts.com, http://www.cafe-arc-de-larctique.com and https://www.facebook.com/DeliasDesserts/, https://www.facebook.com/pg/ReviveCreativeArts/photos/?tab=album&album_id=676091652437721

I use a technique of cutting waxed paper stencils to create perfect designs. I’ve since developed the capability to do this on small layers of icing that can be cut out and placed on cupcakes. I also started training people to do this kind of decorating and am exploring creating online training videos for this technique.

I am an avid runner having completed 9 marathons, 3 half marathons and many 5 10 and 12K races in the past 10 years. I have 2 cats and own my home in San Francisco.
