First Baking Lesson 8/4/07

Monday, April 09, 2007 Posted by YY on 2:49 PM

Took my first lesson at culinaire together with GH, bib's fren who also wanted to open a cafe.
That's why we went together ..so we can discuss recipes next time :P

We had to do 3 recipes in all. They are all butter cakes but just different in some small ways.

The chocolate cupcake was a 4 person effort, cos 1 bench has 2 sides. Each side u have 2 persons, these 2 persons form a team. So i form a team with GH (we only had 3 guys in the class, gh was feeling paiseh wahahaha~)

First cake is chocolate cupcake, the other team is more experienced in baking, so it turned out GREAT~ Dad says can take and sell >.>

2nd cake: Walnut Butter Cake
As usual, something happened..i tell u ar..i duno why the cake nv rise..next lesson ask the chef (judy) ..cos she left at abt 6+ to her cafe which is next door, but our work haven finish.. we cldnt find her when we were done either..nvm next wkend -.-

Last cake finally, no we were not the last to finish *yay* -.-'' it turned out not bad, dad says same as those he buy outside and its worth it to take course, cos my products turn out edible bwahahaha~ Then when i went home and look at the recipe..i realised i forgot to incl. 2 egg yolks..no wonder everyone got spare egg white to contribute..zzz~

U see last few teams, become chaotic liao la..

Let bibi, his aunt's family and his parents to try..hmm general feedback was nt bad well..eh..maybe 6/10?

Let the pics do the talking first...
