Retirement Party



            For the retirement party I helped to make cake pops and truffles. It was lots of fun working with all that chocolate. The cake pops were easy, Jasmine made them beforehand, and I had lots of help dipping and decorating them!

Several people help me coat the cake pops in tempered chocolate, while Jane and Violetta helped with the delicate bows and flowers. The decorations took the longest, every flower was cut out one at a time then thinned out and finally shaped and left to dry. Once they were dry a little bit of chocolate was piped into center.

 The bows were made from ribbon, Violetta taught me how to make them. The process was time consuming but I enjoyed making them. Jane made the pretzel, caramel ganache used for the truffles. We flicked gold dust into the molds and poured dark chocolate on top. They turned out nice.

Sugar free sweet potato cake

I made this cake for my practical I replaced the sugar with stevia. I would have need a little bit more in the icing, though cause it is a little bitter.

And this is the final torte I made... I had to practice for my practical and that's how I decorated it. The cake itself is a genoise cake and in the middle is a baked meringue and then the filling and the decoration is Whipped whipping cream and Dulce de leche. The hardest part was making the Dulce de leche, I think I had to redo it 3 times because it had burnt. but this is the end project. 
And this is the last blog for ever... so everyone else have fun in the following years.
2 days ago were catering. And that's what I made these strawberry tuxedos; that was such fail I must say. but I hope they were delicious. For this event we stayed at school and we were catering from 4-7 and it was very interesting seeing those teachers I had in those earlier years. The cute little bear is Molding chocolate but Mikayla Thiessen made it. Good job Mikayla😊

On May 17, we went to a chocolate shop. we tried a lot of different types of  chocolate. The chocolate shop was very cool, because there was a chocolate rabbit made of different types of chocolate.

Photo Challenge

A while ago my baking class had a photo challenge where you picked a photo and tried to copy the dessert the best you could without any recipe or instruction. I made this lemon bundt cake, drizzled with glaze and topped with buttercream flowers. This would probably have to be one of the most enjoyable projects I have done.
Apple Puff Pastry Roses


A little while ago, I made these cute little puff pastry, apple roses made with home made puffed pastry and filled with apple cinnamon flavour. Although the process of making these were very time consuming, they were lots of fun to make.
