Creaming Lesson 4

Today lesson we learnt how to cut out a Number or Alphabet. As you
can see, our piping skill is improving and everyone is showing their
talent and creativity on the cakes.

Creaming Lesson 3

Lesson 3 was rather interesting. We have to choose a cartoon character that we want to
draw on our cake. We draw the outline of the cartoon character on the baking paper, then
using melted coating chocolate to pipe along the outline. Put in fridge for 3 mins to set the
chocolate and overturn the baking paper onto our cake. Slowly remove the baking paper
and the chocolate will stick onto our creamed cake. Then now we used the piping gel to
mix with colours that we desired and filled up the cartoon. That was easy and fun.

My friend shared with me this cake recipe found from http://gracekitchencorner.blogspot.com/. Seeing the video clip on how the sponge cake being made, indeed make it easier for us to understand. I bake 2 sponge cake since my creaming lesson with Richard needs 2 cakes. Result of the cake was indeed tall and spongy.

Creaming Class

Once we completed from stage 5 of Richard's baking class, we managed to gather enough pupil to sign up for his creaming class. This is a hands-on lesson that we will have to bring a sponge cake,
butter cream, baking tools, etc..
Most of us had a wonderful afternoon, learning how to pipe different patterns using same nozzle and decorate our cake. I am pleased to meet fatmum in the class. Though we have 1st met one another, but it seems that we had know each long ago....LH, 我们一起加油吧!





















Above cake done by me using Chiffon cake bought from cake shop. Since chiffon has a hole in centre, my fellow classmates were kind enough to scrape off the top layer of cake skin, and stuff it into my chiffon, so my chiffon is a full round cake now. The left cake was decorated by me. Richard finds it too plain and beautify it with coloured cream (right). When brought home the cake, my girls were so fascinated over it. Keep saying Mummy so clever....haha...

Below cakes were done by my fellow classmates. Don't you think they did very well?
