"Look Into The Mirror."

On Friday, May 30, 2008, in my cake decorating and candy making class, our class sent an assortment of our fudges, hard candies, and gummies to be displayed (and eaten) during our lunch hour. Below are a few pictures of our spread. Enjoy and do not forget to leave comments.!

"Icing Fit for a King: Royal Icing.!"

As stated earlier, I am posting the results of my introduction to the world of cake decorating.!
The cake on the left is mine, as the one on the right was done by my classmate Yoona. Both of the cakes were presented during lunch, in from of all of the Chefs and academic Instructors.!

As easy as a piece of cake... NOT

Well this past week in my cake decorating and candy making class opened my eyes to show me that I actually enjoy decorating cakes. Not only does it use my passion for food, but also uses my love for the arts.! As one of my gifts to my mother, I made her a cake.! Not only did I make an Italian buttercream icing to go on the cake, but it is also covered in homemade rolled fondant. For those of you who have made fondant before know that this is a task that is both tedious and delicious.!!! To finally decorate the cake, and to make it look like more than a couple of blocks of cake, I decorated this exquisite cake with royal icing.!!! Let me know what you think of the cake. Until later, it's not about how the cookie crumbles, it's about how the cake is covered.!
