So the wedding cake is coming together pretty well. I spent part of today attaching about 400 little tiny white gumpaste flowers to the cake with royal icing. And then, when all that fun was finished, I had to make about 400 little teeny tiny green dots with royal icing in the centers of the aforementioned white gumpaste flowers. Not the most amazingly exciting morning, but the cake is really starting to look cool. I have a pale green and white kinda theme going, it’s very spring-y looking. Some of the other cakes in the class are looking really beautiful as well. I took some pictures today and I’m going to take some more tomorrow and post them all at once tomorrow night. The only things I have left to make are a rose, two more chrysanthemums, and some ivy to go on the top of the cake. I had enough chrysanthemums, but I wasn’t really happy with how one of them turned out, and some petals broke off of the other one. At least I’m getting lots of practice. I saved the rose for last since I think it’s going to be the biggest pain to make, and I wanted to get everything else out of the way first. But alas, it’s coming down to the wire and I really should stop procrastinating and just make it.
In other baking related news, I’ve been messing around with making different kinds of cheesecake at work, since it seems to be a big seller. On Saturday, I made Caramel Pecan cheesecake and it was a big hit. I made 3 more yesterday and most of it was gone when I went to pick up my check tonight. The only thing that I keep having issues with is my lemon bar recipe. It’s too squishy, and when I add more eggs it tastes too eggy. Tomorrow I’m going to ask the chef that bakes for the school bakery (Cafe Bleu) for his recipe, since the lemon bars there are super yummy. I also made 160 brownies for a party on Monday night. It’s hard to bake large quantities in the kitchen there, since it’s not really set up for baking. It’s ok though, I figure it’s good experience to work in different kinds of kitchens and get used to working in less than ideal conditions. I guess I’m just spoiled since the kitchens at school are so damn nice.
Not a whole lot else going on…I should be in bed but since I didn’t have to work tonight I took a nap and now I’m not sleepy. I’ll be kicking myself in the morning, but for now I’m going to try and be productive and get some laundry done.
I keep looking and looking and checking back to see photos of my cake that I can show my friends and they’re NOT HERE!!! And then I was sad.
