The cake consists of two layers of genoise, blueberry bavarian cream, and a blueberry nappage to top it off. You may be asking yourself "what does that even mean?" Let me break it down for you. Genoise is an Italian sponge cake that is moistened with flavored syrup. Bavarian cream is a mixture of cream whipped to a soft peak, sweetner, flavoring (in this case it is blueberry puree), and gelatin to give it a little more body. The top layer is a n</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small; ">appage </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small; ">made of blueberry puree, currant jelly, and gelatin.

The highlight of my day was meeting the famous <a href="http://www.jacquestorreschocolate.com/about_jacques.aspx">Jacques Torres</a>. Jacque was very friendly and even called me 'mademoiselle'.

Work was pretty crazy this last month and I haven't been unable to post the fabulous things I have been making and learning in class. Cake has been the new theme of the section I just started. Making and decorating cakes has been such a blast and I look forward to every class. There is just something about cakes that creates a feeling of excitement. I think it is because all birthdays, weddings and most other celebrations involve a cake. I'm not the only one who is excited about making cakes, my work is thrilled that I bring a cake into the office three days a week. </span></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhs2L0imen8atsiPwYintnNrLmfeFIryuOzOzbmeFPBRJyKqH45NALAsNWGzyS16IsW86GVq34OPLoaeQ3BTTuKiQYHtYwxC3tX3ligaPsLu2N-hsSG41SImgQpg3JNxtIe3RRHLtXEgP8/s1600/DSC_1451.JPG"><img style="display: block;

My favorites were the fruit, lemon curd, and chocolate. The fruit tart is made with Pate Brisee, a light and flaky crust, then filled with pastry cream and decorated with fruit. The chocolate tart is made with Pate Sablee, a rich and crumbly crust, then filled with a rich ganache and topped with a hazelnut and chocolate shavings. The lemon tart is also made with Pate Sablee then filled with lemon curd and finished with meringue. I thought they all turned out to be adorable and great for many occasions.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEin4WqtXx0aENZV-KR7DhLmeZ1GwyvTqgvT99FeeO8dNT-24Or_gu8E3CmPn-OVwqaoWcmOGcofXTd8Ck8E4VAPm8dXJfioEFGq450f9Tc3bYsUtMiKU0BflCSeYWMAOAj_QyEsJIwf4os/s400/CIMG0707.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5514697622428299138" /><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEVOhYN17tgEKYkt0m_eHQhzaQ8jFyVbJiEeC37jNg018YLxWqKofngBPB7V9-BFPRfA5bRPEEJoLy8R7iqZ24Wd21AB6dMD_CxbALcJzRBic5cMho2S_IdSuSgD4-Q0m2hmA7B3CjP8Q/s400/CIMG0703.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5514696556858484658" /><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnI3pW10g294MHUbtYR34G3hRbu7BmWM8qtREibZOQjuzQgPpvOtyCGMWzKBoocd2RSL2VcYtiDNNFfU7mwe3rcaFJu2wYc6UeCieTBpyJVVESahJM4k7EbFjmy9NWkcX4aU4BxGDn9Ao/s400/CIMG0706.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5514696562252062418" /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfzVkjsGafcsNAf-thJkjR_6CS3em_7RCEcL90exjPe_KgsXtZjYP-_Pwnyc0Q3b3EaB_fpj3b_xxH6lEQ7XqgTKia8TO8pOOhJkSjh4WUSNmm40MQOyzO6BA-pHZwwA2dYkioDEfJ_Ag/s1600/tart.jpg" style="text-decoration: none;"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfzVkjsGafcsNAf-thJkjR_6CS3em_7RCEcL90exjPe_KgsXtZjYP-_Pwnyc0Q3b3EaB_fpj3b_xxH6lEQ7XqgTKia8TO8pOOhJkSjh4WUSNmm40MQOyzO6BA-pHZwwA2dYkioDEfJ_Ag/s400/tart.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5514710902481661842" /></a><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8T9gRcOmrLHYuvth7UGBi0-WYcTIVQjh2kC2EdtNeOAwzGUzqTrtkgxgdfHJ-7sX1vCPE3a-6X8y1go2rbL9o2_nKKziWFTOU0AK12hzbjtoX0SKWDOnsPeiSTWxzftNJhtpkcURBjZA/s400/CIMG0649.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5514694713185552498" /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbcfKivWWyL5wtEVgU9YbKsaSeq5JLUuH3fiIh_-bEnRB3l6uIcqHdNEkqgCiTCdGTNcjf8cFVDop75CLB1XUJ9XRaviBGN7bGXJurlg5MnRu1kZ540XLswfhn_-YoYHcrxitzktdjCyE/s1600/CIMG0662.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbcfKivWWyL5wtEVgU9YbKsaSeq5JLUuH3fiIh_-bEnRB3l6uIcqHdNEkqgCiTCdGTNcjf8cFVDop75CLB1XUJ9XRaviBGN7bGXJurlg5MnRu1kZ540XLswfhn_-YoYHcrxitzktdjCyE/s400/CIMG0662.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5514694731121540034" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtqNHZpxC62dtXzzBA-dY5D07zp3pP1P0dCPXmFkml7FRR4xvFj2zFIoOnGx2CX5PhqtyHG-XMRvUfmHzX1GJSPT5qIpn6EXN2eNqPn874sXzEB5MTpPzIUfuPhfzaetpveSPnxiVZMoY/s1600/CIMG0659.JPG" style="text-decoration: none;"><br /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div>City Sweet Shophttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15325399035811955360noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2680995112616348909.post-55457607641440913642010-09-06T18:18:00.000-07:002010-09-07T07:22:41.555-07:00Dessert Date<div style="TEXT-ALIGN: left" align="left"><span style="font-family:georgia;"><span style="LINE-HEIGHT: 16px" class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-family:georgia;">There is nothing I love more than dessert date nights. Tonight my husband Jordan took me to Momofuku Milk Bar, one of my favorite dessert spots in NYC. Momofuku Milk Bar works wonders with their ability to mix the sweet and salty combinations, in some of the most innovative and delicious ways. They are fantastic at preserving the textures of the key ingredients in their desserts. For example, the banana cake bite inside was light and moist and the cornflakes in the cookies still had their CRUCH when I bit into it. My favorite menu items are the cinnamon bun pie, grasshopper pie, and the cornflake-marshmallow chocolate chip cookie.</span> </span></span></span></span></div><span style="LINE-HEIGHT: 16px;font-size:medium;" class="Apple-style-span" ><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: left"></div><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: left"><br /></div></span><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: left"><span style="LINE-HEIGHT: 16px;font-size:medium;" class="Apple-style-span" ><a href="http://www.momofuku.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/east-village-september-3.pdf">Momofuku Milk Bar Menu</a></span></div><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: left"><span style="LINE-HEIGHT: 16px;font-size:medium;" class="Apple-style-span" ><br /></span></div><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: left"><span style="LINE-HEIGHT: 16px;font-size:medium;" class="Apple-style-span" ><br /></span></div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 266px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5513984177277563202" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5HKw6IIVSL51BvKEmO2XjmpE2Gux064D9Z7yyCyvbMBreq9bkI7Y_OxQ8YWVmO2xItcnYM4IVpsaCzWuQaBty5ivZFNXpw4LxE9Wp-dh7S3Ib_RWshovpV96C1vJ61OL-yLx7v9Gy6CE/s400/DSC_1285.JPG" /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 266px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5513982432279994802" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhU0YGMk9txXmDHBEs6xRSNZdm13fR4eJKGrNLHvnI9C_4pZ2XPvvCFpevPu5w-GkCBGU9XiKP76RR0hnGTqxxDSH92NOZxzPQWt-jtkJg_kejSfpNWm1AyaMgChPDLRIGORhFPfh0n-rE/s400/DSC_1291.JPG" /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 266px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5513982440827314210" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgON-Q84LEtjMb0YWD_lighlgUywK3TQ3NGUiuuUKTfPF6xLaAsrj-yXCCkHFaCCvbVtYdY-PQ78PubfYAwCl29q4JLOJiYsD-QdL4H17gKE7V7GT6UnzmcwgnIqPAfneGeXXdi8j5HGHY/s400/DSC_1294.JPG" /><br /><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center"><br /></div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 266px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5513984186394181570" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlomdpZba_yni_1Gqkx96Y7npzg-WMKzJesg4PTAX9krcuysd7oyFtNMGIi7igAzqQIHXPlDao2JS6NCi5PQHGMPIlpkrVyWUl7NyKUAoNuwcaNm33ArR_o6AuCV57B8kxTUZOxUroQhE/s400/DSC_1299.JPG" /> <div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">Candy Bar Pie</span></div><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">(chocolate crust, caramel, peanut butter nougat, pretzels)</span></div><br /><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center"><br /></div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 266px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5513985461448115154" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdtbTvnegtiRrlAi9uHcgqOsCNulUjrA4704ptJz9rs_LVATKLQ0mCSXGVRR-TCiAyTfsfe_Ls9E6QD8VUkF-6EowculgsyKUoIsaDtbA2SoP5CJsFo7Uja4xtcZuHTlPFwUbe-Jpko1Y/s400/DSC_1312.JPG" /> <div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">Banana Cake Truffle </span></span></div><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">(banana cream, hazelnut crunch, gianduja fudge)</span></span></div><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center"><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPG3oqIaVO9H23vWk0O51o2AU3kk-JAHhu2pC0nORJuu2J7NPg4jehwj2blXduCG72JHrajS7w2mKriU1-ez_-VzIqkWzbozgsWNWzhgsuqi84XzeNCk885NG4WSrkbY5YU2tYlqmqIis/s1600/DSC_1306.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 266px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5513985455823374690" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPG3oqIaVO9H23vWk0O51o2AU3kk-JAHhu2pC0nORJuu2J7NPg4jehwj2blXduCG72JHrajS7w2mKriU1-ez_-VzIqkWzbozgsWNWzhgsuqi84XzeNCk885NG4WSrkbY5YU2tYlqmqIis/s400/DSC_1306.JPG" /></a> <div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">Cornflake-Marshmallow-Chocolate Chip Cookie</span></div><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center"> </div>City Sweet Shophttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15325399035811955360noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2680995112616348909.post-86901013714701144362010-08-21T09:08:00.000-07:002010-08-23T19:57:11.150-07:00Carb Delights<div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;">This week in class we were able to make all sorts of amazing carb filled delights.

The first step to making Pâte à Choux is bring water and butter (scary amounts) to a boil. Then remove it from the stove and stir in the flour. After the flour is stirred in, place it on the stove while continuously stirring in order to cook the starch and dry out the dough. After the starch is properly cooked and the dough is dried out, remove it again from the heat, but continue to stir to cool the dough. Add eggs one at a time, until it reached an elastic consistency (like the butter, scary amount of eggs). Once you reach the right texture and consistency, fill a pastry bag and piped the dough onto sheet pan. Bake. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div></span></span></span></div>City Sweet Shophttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15325399035811955360noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2680995112616348909.post-39865451381552236062010-07-21T17:25:00.000-07:002010-08-23T20:42:37.964-07:00Cheesecake<div>Last week in class we learned about cheesecake.
