Maria Araujo

Hey! I’m María Araujo, the founder and creative mind behind María Amaría. My love for cakes started in my family’s kitchen, where I grew up baking alongside the incredible women in my life. What began as a fun passion project quickly turned into something much bigger—an internationally recognized cake studio where I get to blend art, flavor, and storytelling into every creation. Inspired by seasonal ingredients, floral designs, and my cultural roots, I love turning desserts into edible works of art that make every celebration extra special.

Over the years, I’ve had the chance to create cakes for destination weddings, luxury events, and all kinds of unforgettable moments. My work has taken me from Mexico City to Madrid, Miami, and New York, collaborating with amazing clients along the way. In this course, I want to share not just the techniques behind cake design but also the creativity and thought process that make each cake unique. Whether you’re just starting or looking to take your skills to the next level, I’m excited to help you bring your cake visions to life!
