Celebrate!!!

The one part of my pastry class where I know I needed practice in was cakes. When we made celebration/wedding cakes in class, although my cake was liked by other, I knew I could have done so much better. Well here is the proof! Take a little time and practice and this is what can happen. The first shot is of my cake from class, the ones to follow are of a cake I made last weekend for two co-workers that have birthdays that are a day apart. Enjoy!Wedding Cake

Truffles

Yummy....Truffles! I had much fun making these, as I always do. If only computers could be scratch and sniff.....:)
So I took the time to get some photos for you to enjoy. After making these I thought what else can I infuse the cream with that would be unique to a truffle. I was in my kitchen repotting a Basil plant when I thought, why not, let's give it a try. It is different but the taste is actually quite unique. Not for everyday popping in the mouth, but a nice refreshing treat everyonce in awhile. Enjoy the photos!
