One wedding cake.

  • Cake baking and assembling
    Lesson 01
    Cake Baking & Assembling
    Three signature recipes: pistachio-lime, chocolate-hazelnut, and coconut-strawberry. Tall, even tiers that hold their shape and are ready to coat.
  • Cake smoothing and marbling
    Lesson 02
    Cake Smoothing & Marbling
    My signature smoothing and marbling technique using white and dark chocolate ganaches. Flawless surfaces and crisp edges, the foundation that makes the origami texture work.
  • Crafting the origami paper mould
    Lesson 03
    Crafting the Origami Paper Mould
    Template construction and paper folding technique to build the mould. Get this right and the rest of the cake builds itself.
  • Origami texturing and velvet spraying
    Lesson 04
    Origami Texturing & Velvet Spraying
    Apply the mould, release it cleanly, and finish with the matte velvet spray. The signature look that makes people photograph the cake before cutting.
  • Stacking tiers
    Lesson 05
    Stacking Tiers
    Doweling, centering, and reinforcing each tier so the cake is structurally sound and safe to transport to a venue.
  • Wafer paper flowers
    Lesson 06
    Wafer Paper Flowers
    Creating elegant wafer paper decoration to complete the look. Light, edible, and wedding-ready.

I created the origami technique.

"My passion for clean geometry led me to create something that didn't exist before."

I'm Merul, a self-taught baker since the age of 14. What started as a love for patterns and clean geometric shapes became the origami cake texturing technique now replicated by bakers across Brazil, Europe, and beyond.
