Stressing me out

Superior is not easy, however it's harder when u r having a bad teacher. We have the head chef of patisserie as our teacher, however his skills and his title is totally going to the opposite way. So pissed with his attitude. No matter how, I'll do my best!!!

Buche de Noel: chocolate mousse, cointreau mousse with joconde layers and ganache with chocolate coating and meringue figurines

Brasilia: buttercream, joconde, top with nougatine

Feuille D'autome: almond meringue layer with chocolate mousse. Ganish with coverture chocolate

Petit Four: glazed, choux paste, caramel fruits, tartlettes

Superior!

Time flies, this is the final semester of the patisserie course. Bee & Kookai has gone back to thailand to continue their superior there. Helen is back from her long break from greece.

This week we did some figures and fruits with mazipan. It was kinda boring, I still prefer doing gateau

Term Break~

Last week of Intermediate. Few of my friends are not doing superior next term. I'm going to miss u Bee & Kookkai...
We did La Fraiser and different kind of cookies. Went back to Melbourne after class, & went skiing with my cousin at Mt. Bulla. There was not much snow, but I've enjoyed myself. 6 hours of driving is really a hectic.
