Elisa Strauss founded Confetti Cakes in 2000.  She is a graduate of Vassar College and The Institute of Culinary Education, where she received a degree in pastry and baking arts.  Elisa also spent one semester studying at the Art Institute of Chicago. Prior to culinary school, she worked as a designer for Ralph Lauren.
