Santa Fe Reporter: Pass the plate
"Hey, look at this cake," my friend said one day, showing me a photo on his Facebook feed. My jaw dropped. It was so beautiful, I was expecting the creator to be out of New York, or maybe Paris, but not at all—the creator was local, and my friend knew her.
Such world-class technique is not uncommon in Santa Fe, and I was naïve to be surprised. I asked my friend to make a connection for me so I could learn more about the exquisite cake craftswoman, and start meeting with other chefs in town.
