1/4的俄罗斯血统，祖母家里曾经也经营着多家甜品店。或许是因为这个原因，Abbie的基因里就有着对美食和甜品的热爱。
Abbie is 1/4 Russian and her grandmother's family previously ran multiple dessert shops. Perhaps for this reason, Abbie has a love for all things sweet.
女生的零花钱一般都花在包包鞋子上，而她几乎把所有的钱都用在了各种食物上。
她喜欢到处游历，在旅行中逛当地的大小食品市场，在超市里泡上大半天。发现特别的食材和调料，总忍不住买回家品尝，翻着花样做新的好吃的出来。
She likes to travel and visit local food markets. "When I find special ingredients and seasonings, I can't help buying them to try at home."

在蛋糕设计上，Abbie有着格外严苛的要求。蛋糕不仅要美味，还要有诱人的外表。她喜欢用新鲜水果和天然香料制作味道浓郁，口感密集的蛋糕，也会对欧美系的蛋糕进行改良，使口感更适合亚洲人。
Abbie likes to use fresh fruits and natural spices to make cakes with rich and dense. She adapts her recipes and designs from European and American style to be better suited for Asian palate.
蛋糕装饰方面也是充满创意，巧克力，翻糖，糯米纸，饼干，糖霜，裱花，水果都是她用来创作的元素。
Her cake decoration is full of creativity. Chocolate, fondant, rice paper, cookies, frosting, decorating and fruits are all elements she uses to make her cakes stand out.

客人看到她的蛋糕照片，要求购买同款的时候，她总会询问是否可以做个同样主题，但设计有所不同的？
她所设计的蛋糕，至今为止已将近两百款，从未重复。
She has designed nearly 200 cakes so far, and each cake has been unique. She has never made the same cake twice.

为了做好这款蛋糕，Abbie把整部剧都再看过一遍。
剧情中的人物关系，情节主旨，都在被透彻理解后才开始构思蛋糕的设计。
除了蛋糕之外，Abbie制作的饼干也格外美味。
这款饼干有非常迷人的花生酱味，尝一口，满口生香。

这个比赛叫做Great Taste Awards Run by the Guild of FineFood In UK，当时和10000多种食品一起竞赛，由400多位嘴巴刁的评委们，通过49天的盲选，选出来了这款著名新西兰品牌花生酱。
不仅好吃，Pic's的优秀之处还在于，完全不添加植物油，花生酱是由100%花生原料制成。
纯正，健康，美味，就是一款看似普通的饼干, Abbie也用最好的原料制作。难怪她的客人很大一部分都是回购数次的老客户，每一个品尝过Abbie甜点的人，都会情不自禁的吃了还想吃，不仅自己停不下来，还介绍给好多朋友。

这种饼干不仅工艺复杂。对外观，上色，平整度以及饼干底的制作都要求精益求精。
