ABOUT ME
ODEZA EPSTEIN • CAKE ARTIST BEHIND SUGAR DREAMS
Hello, I am Odeza — the cake artist behind Sugar Dreams.
Sugar Dreams is a creative part of my life that grew from a simple love of making something beautiful for the people I care about. Outside of creating cakes, I am a wife, a mom of two, and a full-time ICU nurse
Cake design gives me an entirely different creative outlet. I love taking an idea, a color palette, or the feeling of celebration and transforming it into something beautiful and personal—something that becomes a small part of someone's most meaningful memories.

How I Got Started
My journey into cake design began with a very special client—my son, Vince.
For his fifthy birthday, he asked me for a Transformers cake. At the time, I had no idea that one birthday cake would lead to something so meaningful. I decided to make it myself, and seeing how excited he was sparked something iin me. I wanted learn more, try more, and see just how far I could take this new creative outlet.
What followed were years of teaching myself, experimenting, and plenty of trial and error. I studied recipes, practiced techniques, listened carefully to feedback from family and friends, and eventually developed recipes of my own. Over time, I transitioned from fondant designs to buttercream style that has become such an important part of Sugar Dreams today.
Now, every Sugar Dreams cake is handcrafted from scratch and thoughtfully designed for the celebration it belongs to. I especially love creating with buttercream, incorporating texture, delicate piping, florals, and artistic details that make each cake unique.
What started with one birthday cake for my son became a creative journey I never expected—and one I remain incredibly grateful for.
Have Sugar Dreams
Odeza 🤍
