Virginia Holland, owner of Holland Confectionary Art, has made a name for herself in the community as a talented cake artist, blending creativity and craftsmanship to design edible masterpieces.

Her passion for cake design began with crafting realistic paper flowers, which led her to discover sugar floristry. Inspired by cake designer Maggie Austin, known for designing cakes for the White House, Holland attended Austin’s Wedding Intensive class, which she describes as a turning point in her career.
“Maggie’s teaching, generosity, and humility motivated me to pursue my dream,” said Holland.
Holland works from her home studio, where spring and summer are her busiest seasons as she creates cakes for weddings, birthdays, and other celebrations. She credits organization and preparation as keys to managing her workload.
“When I create a cake, I approach it with the dedication of a commissioned art piece,” she explained. “It’s not just a cake. I strive for authenticity in my sugar flowers, embracing the natural imperfections that make them special.”
Her inspiration comes from the beauty of nature, fine art, fashion, and even the unique personalities of her clients. Holland works closely with customers to bring their visions to life, combining her artistry with her love for baking to create cakes that delight the senses through sight and taste.
