History
Established in 2010.
I am Michele Guerra, Owner. I originally started this business for my friends who could bake tremendous cakes, but didn’t have the artistry abilities that they saw on t.v. I would make the cake accessory pieces and deliver them to my friends. This was the beginning of my business. I volunteered in a local European pastry shop and learned a lot about fine pastries. After many years of donating cakes to local youth programs, I was recruited by the Food Network for be on Sugar Dome’s Alien Invasion. Shortly after that, when the door opened for cottage bakeries, I was first in line. My shop is full of wonderful sweet smells, tastes, and dazzling treats that catch the eye. I look forward to hearing from you and making your dreams come true one sweet treat at a time.

Michele first developed her love for all things sweet growing up in a European kitchen. Her passion for healthy baking and cake design pushed her to pursue classes and an internship with an Austrian pastry chef.
With art being her strong suit and a diligent practice in cake design, chocolate modeling, blown sugar sculpture, artful cookies, playful biscotti, and candy’s Michele established her own company «Express Sugar Designs.» It is your one stop shop for any event where you want to leave a lasting impression. If you can think it, she can make it.
Today you can also find Michele at Michael’s Craft Store in Vacaville as a Wilton’s instructor, at rented commercial bakeries, teaching culinary classes and advanced cake artistry, and she can also be seen on the Food Network’s production of Sugar Dome, «Alien Invasion» and November 9, Food Networks, «Cake Wars: Christmas!»
