The silence in here makes me sad....
On the other hand, I'm so excited about Autumn desserts I could burst!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Next week in class we're having a halloween cake contest! We can make anything halloween related we want! I'm so excited. I already have a design in mind. We're doing it now because we won't have this particular Chef
after the end of this month. We'll be in plated desserts during Halloween. Anyways.....we're actually going to have voting going on for the best cake. I'm sure the culinary classes will be invited to come in and vote. The winner will get bragging rights but it's going to be so much fun.
The following week we get to make up our own cake similar to the idea of the cake in my sig where we take any techniques and methods used over the course of the 6 weeks and apply it to our own cake. I'm going to make a layered brown sugar spice cake. In between each layer I'm going to line it with a caramel sauce, toasted pecans, and an apple/cinnamon filling that I'll also make. I'm then going to frost it with a buttercream lightly flavored with cinnamon and then top it all off with marzipan apples.
It's gonna rock. I can't wait to turn in my paper next week on the cake. My Chef is going to freak out. Last week when we made the brown sugar cake my Chef (who is literally a size ZERO around the waist) turned to us, after eating a piece of it, and said "oh my god you guys, I fricken love cake...."
I love her.
