MEET
Amy Adas, 37, the
“sweets stylist” behind the
imaginative dessert tables
of Amy Atlas Events.
RECIPE FOR SUCCESS
“I always looked at sweets
as beautiful, edible art, so I
started creating dessert
tables for my own parties.
My guests loved them so
much that I eventually
turned my hobby into a
niche business.”
THE FIRST FAN
“My
husband is the voice of
reason in our relationship.
He’s challenged me with
tough love and constant
support—he was the
one to ask, ‘Is it a hobby
orabusiness?”’
SWEET JUSTICE
“When
people see a dessert table
I’ve designed, they assume
I have an art degree.
Nope—but I’m a licensed
attorney. My creative side
came out a bit later in life.”
SUGAR MAMA
“My two
sons have a deep love of
sugar, too. My oldest is a
chocoholic, and my little
guy loves vanilla On
weekends, you’ll find us
all—no surprise—
baking.’
HERSTYLE
idassic-yet-sophisticated
lack. I literally live in
leggings or skinny jeans
paired with a blouse.”

the idea of glamming it up with
sequins—and this top could
work for day or night.” A

shimmer beautifully. Sequin
