This'll be short and sweet. For this lesson, we only did one thing. Then we had to pipe boiled icing for our practical quiz. So without further ado... Two words: TOO SWEET! 😉

Seafood Galore.
I should have posted sooner, but between the typhoon and the simultaneous make up classes, I just wanted to squeeze in all the sleep and rest I could get. We have finished 2 series of lessons and halfway through another, but I'm going to post all of them separately. This first one is special... Because… Continue reading Seafood Galore.
Sausages.
Our next lesson was Sausage, Ham and Pastrami Making. Personally, I enjoy eating ham more than sausages, especially during the Christmas season where the "sweet ham" is abundant. I can eat that 3 times a day! Haha For this class, we mostly made sausages and used them in different dishes as specified below. One thing's… Continue reading Sausages.
Quack. Baaaa. And Anything in Between.

So we thought everything will go on okay every time. But for the first time since school started, I felt like giving… Continue reading …And Even More Meat.
Meat Overload.
Okay so I've been really busy the past week. I only want to sleep when I get home from school or work! =P It's not easy juggling everything to be honest. But hey, nothing in life is easy. Anyway, we learned different parts and cuts and uses of beef, veal and lamb the last 3… Continue reading Meat Overload.
Quick Breads.
The past 2 classes we had were about quick breads. Quick bread is a type of bread that is leavened with a chemical leavener (ie baking powder and baking soda). Quick breads include muffins, scones, biscuits, pancakes and waffles to name a few. Honestly, the classes were a bit chaotic compared to the other pastry… Continue reading Quick Breads.
