A crowning achievement for Luu thus far has been an
avant-garde cake he was asked to make for the Museum
of Contemporary Art Australia's 25th birthday—which
was cut by the Prime Minister himself. "For this milestone,
I created a five tiered cake which incorporated iconic
artworks/exhibitions that the museum has had in the last
25 years." e cake's color palette was inspired by architect
Sam Marshall who was responsible for renovating the
museum back in 2012. Luu also worked with a Melbourne-
based cookie artist and local art educators to put the whole
thing together.
Looking back, it is still hard for Luu to picture the amount
of success he's found today, and in this short amount of
time. "I started baking as a bit of a hobby, something to
share with my friends and family. It was a nice outlet from
the routine of work and life; I never thought it would lead
me here!" As a contemporary baker with his own distinct
point of view, Luu has found a way to convert conventional
cake-making into an art form of its own.
