About the tutor

Originally from Barcelona, Anna began her career designing for fashion brands like Zara before moving to the UK and transitioning to cake decorating at Fitzbillies bakery. She later launched her own business, Martina Ann, where she creates high-quality cakes from scratch using traditional techniques. Known for her elegant and modern designs, Anna combines her background in fashion with a passion for baking.
