Cakes

Making cakes is quite the experience. The mocha layered cake was super interesting for me, never have I made so many layers in such a small cake.

And the flavour was quite good as well.

Making the jaconde with the stencil on it, was fun too. I liked finding out how to get the stencil on, as it didn't occur to me before how it got on, although it I'm not sure how it would get on a round cake.

piping the success cake was certainly interesting, I found that getting half of the batter was harder to eyeball than I thought since I obviously had one that was a bit too small.

Making different cake was certainly interesting, spongecake with some added butter at the end, mixing with a bit of the batter so the butter mixed in easiler.

I enjoy cakes, seeing as you make the layers, then put them together and make something pretty out of it all.

The petit four practical at the beginning of the week actually surprisingly went well, I feel like I did my best, working hard enough to get the grade that I did, a 92. Learnt somethings.

Made a good tasting tea cake, although the almond paste over whelmed it a bit.

My macaroons however tasted a bit dry and the filling wasn't solid enough yet. So I feel like I could have done much better than them. Super disappointed in them overall.

Macaroons with honey butter cream, Strawberry tartlets with cracked black pepper

and Macha tea cakes.

This week was overall exhausting for some reason, but I feel like it was a good week anyways.
