Lambeth Cake One

In 1964 I took a Joseph Lambeth class from Edith Gates in Long Beach California. I thought you might like to see some of the students work from a cake show from that year.

I still love the piping of the Lambeth method and am pleasantly surprised to see it is making a comeback today.

Joseph Lambeth was brilliant. The only one today who does this type of work at this level of excellence is Eddie Spence in the UK.

Lovely Eddie, he’s my number one top hero! I can’t believe you are a great grandmother by the way! x

Fifi I have a friend in New York who has gone to the UK and taken two classes with Eddie Spence, how I envy him! As for being a Great Grandmother, these kids just seem to keep reproducing. 9 grands and now 12 great grands!

I can’t imagine that I will ever get to attend an Eddie Spence cake so I will live vicariously through my friend Tony.
