The key for this class is to make cream puff grow nicely, and you will be learning some tips to make it successful. Hope everyone’s choux becomes nice shape^^!

The crunchy cookie on top has a hint of cinnamon so that the combination of tea x cinnamon spice will remind you of hot chai and Christmas spice cookies and cakes.

The cake from yesterday class; Foret Noir (Black Forest) Cake ~Caramel Factory style~ with chocolate mousse at the bottom and pitted cherry inside!

It’s one of my favourite decoration cakes (another one is Strawberry short cake), and I hope that students can bake this in their special occasions, such as birthday, Christmas and others…

So Christmas season is coming soon! Have you decided what cakes to bake (or buy) for this Christmas^^?
