Sienna Wedes is the creator and
owner of Patissienna. Sienna
creates a unique series of delicate
desserts that belong on any high-
end restaurant table.
Inspired by her Great Uncle
John, who was an opal miner,
Sienna has incorporated the
striking colours that her uncle
admired so much all that way
under ground as a source of
her unique approach to dessert
design.
The desserts are simple yet so
enticing it is hard to say no!
Sienna is creating something new
all the time, and is relentless in
her compositions of ingredients,
that include warm elements of
chocolate mixed with spices and
topped with crisp cool hints of
mint and ice cream
Sienna continually creates the
perfect balance between her
innovative ‘designer desserts’
showcased throughout the series
and mixes it up with wholesome
home cooking for her family and
friends.
