Hi, I’m Tyler

A professional pastry chef turned teacher of all things cookie decorating.

How I got here

Paper Street Parlour grew out of a homegrown love of baking cookies on Sunday afternoons in my grandmother’s kitchen. From there my childhood hobby grew into a lifelong baking passion.

In 2014, I started Paper Street Cake, a successful custom cakes and decorated cookies business. I created delicious works of art for hundreds of happy clients over the years.

From 2017 until recently, I was teaching in-person cookie decorating classes and occasional cake decorating classes in my home in Irvine, CA until the pandemic threw a wrench in things.

For a while there I kept my business afloat and gave my local students something to keep them busy by offering decorate-at-home cookie kits. They were a hit! But I was getting burnt out keeping up with demand. Near-weekly cookie kits are a lot of work!

Luckily, my online masterclass and supply starter kit have been steadily increasing in popularity and those allow me to reach a much wider audience than I can locally.

What I’m doing now

Teaching is my passion and I want to help as many people as I can learn how to master cookie decorating. So, I have been hard at work creating some amazing new online classes and blog content which are all coming very very soon. Stay tuned!
