So I've been on a bit of a blogging break. The past few weeks have been very busy and I just haven't had the chance to catch everyone up on everything. So I'll make this a little simpler and will just post pictures with the name of what it is.

 This is a white chocolate mousse cake with a raspberry gelee and pistachio dacqoise. We made roses for the tops and little squigly leaves as decorations.

 This is when we started to focuse more on plating rather than the product itself. This is a frozen caramelized pineapple bombe with a coconut dacquoise that has been completely covered in white chocolate. To decorate, I made a chocolate butterfly and design in chocolate with sauces.

 This was my exam day. We had to plate two identical desserts at 10:30 and then another two identical desserts at 11:30. The purpose of this was to be able to reproduce the same plate several times, time management, and creativity of decorations.
This was my first plate. I covered my dessert in a ganache, made a chocolate truffle with gold dust, made candied orange peels and several sauces.

 This was my second plate. I made a chocolate butterfly, a couple of fondant roses, and sauces. Both did fairly well!

 This is what I made during my reading week at home. It was for my very cute neigbour Chase's second birthday. He had a Thomas the Train themed birthday party! This was my first highly decorated tiered cake. I'm quite proud of it!

These are also some sugar cookies that I made for my mum's second grade class for Valentine's Day.
