Platform creator

Crumb Avenue was created by Agnes Jagiello, a professional cake artist.

The platform was developed to address common challenges in cake topper creation, particularly around proportions, shaping, speed, and consistency. Experience across production-focused and detail-oriented environments informed an approach centred on clarity, structure, and practical use.
