Explanation:
I have friends who have a bakery in the U.S. "Cake decorator" is a name of a profession there. I would not be too concerned about translating for the Australian market. I have never,ever heard other expressions proposed here.
See also the Australian links in Google (38 of them) for "cake decorating: http://www.google.com/search?as_q=&num=100&hl=en&btnG=Google...
