HI! Are you curious who is behind La Belle Aurore? Then we have to tell you our story!
We could say that the real creator of La Belle Aurore was our mother. Oh yes, because we two, Aurora and Cristina Bonafede, are sisters!
We can almost say that the art of cake design is a family gift.
Two sugar artists whose fame is now known throughout the world.
Our adventure in the world of sugar art began in Rome in 2012, when we decided to participate in a competition organized as part of the charity event “Cake For Children”.
On this occasion we presented a work that won the first prize, highlighting our lively and colorful style, but at the same time very refined.
After this experience, we have not stopped engaging and participating in high-profile competitions.
By refining our art in this way, we have brought the academy to life and have managed to create training courses that are increasingly practical, effective and even fun.
