Sunday, September 2, 2012. I just realized that the t-shirt that inspired this blog title that was inspired by cupcakes is close to 4 years old. Don't worry, my husband still has it and wears it weekly. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Make Me A Cupcake! A portfolio of pastry and art projects.

Make Me A Cupcake!: May 2008
http://acuppedcake.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 21, 2008. The class was awesome and I will write a post tomorrow. For now here are the photos. Friday, May 16, 2008. Every year I do something for my yearbook staff to show them how much I appreciate them. The first year we had the standard pizza party and it was fun, free (since the publisher royally screwed up) and the kids happily stuffed themselves with greasy slices. The second year I felt like I needed to set a better example and I brought them all Jamba. Frosting and french vanilla.

Make Me A Cupcake!: Dessertzilla
http://acuppedcake.blogspot.com/2008/09/dessertzilla.html
Saturday, September 27, 2008. Chocolate Mousse in a Florentine cup with Vanilla Tuile. This was created in the above photo. We are working with multiple products that have to be shaped immediately out of the oven. My fingers are getting tough! Soon I will be able to pick up pans with my bare hands! Bread Pudding with Hard Sauce. So many things we make are pains to veganize. Actually, now that I think about it, I could veganize. Thanks to soy milk, creamer, and nutritional yeast. Hmm. So I think these guy...

Make Me A Cupcake!: August 2008
http://acuppedcake.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Saturday, August 23, 2008. Lamination is not just for handouts. Ah, laminated doughs. So flaky, so crunchy, so well, butter laden. Part of section 102 covers laminated doughs, croissants, puff pastry, and danish. All of these have incredible amounts of butter folded in multiple times. We call these "turns" in the bakeshop and they are essential if you want to ever have any layers in your dough. Saturday, August 16, 2008. Rich doughs tend to be stickier than lean doughs. One of the richest doughs that...

Make Me A Cupcake!: July 2008
http://acuppedcake.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 29, 2008. First plated dessert and fruit tarts. Bavarian Cream with Rapberry sauce and caramel decoration. Oh I love to play! I love to play with sauces, with fruit, with color, with making things look good. It is one of the main reasons I decided to get into pastry professionally. As a child I was infamous for spouting off the famous "it's all in the presentation". Words that I still live by. I put my caramel decorations on a dessert! Thursday, July 24, 2008. Basically, this cake was desig...

Make Me A Cupcake!: June 2008
http://acuppedcake.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 17, 2008. Chocolate goes best with Chocolate. About a month ago I could not stop craving chocolate cake. I would go to a bakery look around and not see what I wanted then leave disappointed. This went on for about 3 days when I finally realized that I should have just made them myself in the first place. I have all my gear for culinary school and have already begun playing with most of it. Chances are I am developing bad habits and will have to unbreak them in a few weeks but I am havin...

Saturday, September 13, 2008. More cream puff fun! Ah yes, it has been awhile. Things have been a little insane but the main reason I have not been posting is.I lost my card reader. Oh, that brings me back to the teaching days. We also got a new desk and rearranged the whole computer area so it's not surprising. Just lame! So things have also been busy in the culinary school world. We wrapped up breads and have been making individual tartlettes, pastries, and big tarts. Some have been tasty! Everything s...
