Press Release February 1, 2011: Ro Zinniger, owner of Ro Z’s (pronounced Rosie’s) Sweet Art Studio has been a professional Cake Stylist and Instructor for over 10 years. Ro grew up in an Italian household and was exposed to baking at an early age. Cake Decorating for Ro began as a hobby and the decorating portion was inspired by Ro’s love of crafting. Ro did her first wedding cake, for a friend, at the age of 19. Ro graduated from SDSU, has graduate studies under her belt, and had worked in the corporate world until 14 years ago when she experienced a life changing event that led her back to her love of decorating. Ro created Cakes by Rosanne and sold her creations, but was still yearning for more. So she began teaching her love of decorating to others. In order to become more proficient in the craft, she studied with Cake Decorating greats that include her mentor Colette Peters, Debbie Brown, Mark Seaman, Norm Davis/Zane Berg, Ruth Rickey, Kathy Scott, Laurie Bradach. Her forte lies within the art of fondant as it is so pliable and clay-like allowing for a variety of design applications. She is a celebrity in her own right having appeared on the Food Network, Celebrity Chef – Disney Food and Wine Festival, TLC Fabulous Cakes - Southern California series, and various local television stations. Ro is passionate about teaching others. She utilizes demonstration technique and graduates hands on with the students helping them throughout the class achieve the techniques taught. Ro’s philosophy is to not only show the technique, but to make sure the student understands the mechanics behind the technique in order to ensure they are successful. Her non-intimidating approach has led to hundreds of student success stories. She joined Alchemy of the Hearth as a guest instructor teaching the art of fondant, sugar art and cake decor in early 2011. Presently, Ro Zinniger is partnered with Satin Fine Foods - Rolled Fondant and Gumpaste, where she demonstrates and teaches with their products, and she also sells their products in her retail store. Ro has also added the Helen Woodward Animal Center, Cupcakes for Critters charity to her list of non-profits that she supports.

 

 

"I completed the cake design program through Palomar College with Ro. She gives a very thorough teaching of cake decorating techniques while helping each student with their individual needs and encourages them to grow creatively as an artist, while creating a fun and comfortable environment. She's helped me find my passion for cake and design and I love how she's shared all the tips and tricks she's gathered through her experiences. Ro is the Best!"
