France!

This spring I was in France for 5 weeks. The first 4 weeks I was in a town in the south of France, Cap D'Agde and it was probably the best experience of my life so far. The last week I spent in Paris. It was an amazing learning  experience and just an overall great time. I love France, and I cant wait to go back. I have alot of pictures, I figured I would post some of the best, the rest are on my facebook page.

Cakes, Cakes, Cakes

The title is pretty self explanatory right? Cakes from birthdays to babyshowers and graduations.

Avatar Cake

So, my boyfriends sister is a fan of the Nickelodeon show Avatar so I made this cake for her birthday. The fondant is just marbled blue to look like the sky, Ang is made from fondant, and the blue and white circles around the border are just white chocolate candy melts.

So here is some work from when I was in culinary school in New York. I graduated from the French Culinary Institute, it was amazing.
