A course by VanilleCouture (Lili Cuéllar y Willie Soto)
Lili Cuéllar and Willie Soto are the founders and pastry designers of VanilleCouture, an edible art space where they teach creative pastry courses and expand on their passion for desserts. Lili studied hospitality while Willie studied gastronomy. The two crossed paths in their professional practice, although it wasn't until years later in a cake decorating course that they really got to know each other before becoming a couple as well as a creative duo.
They worked on seasons 2 and 3 of the Netflix show ¡Nailed It! México, and have also collaborated with brands such as KitchenAid, Amazon, Satin Ice, Tiffany & Co, and more. They have taught classes in countries such as the United States, Colombia, Argentina, Brazil, Costa Rica, and throughout Mexico as well as been judges at various professional cake-design contests.
