I had another order for pumpkin rolls so I snapped a picture this time....I really do love them. I have had a busy couple of weeks between everything . I'm pretty bummed that I didn't get a single picture any of my production the last two weeks! What the heck! I made Carrot Cakes and Frangipane Apple Tarts {I chose to be graded on the tart for my final}. I was suppose to do pecan diamond also but we had limited supply both weeks so we went without! I made the mistake of doing a special order cake. It was a half sheet cake not my fav to do. It was cover with fondant....I seriously feel sick even thinking about how ugly it came out...excuse me I'll be back...
Now that I have barfed I can continue.
The problem started with being thrown off by color scheme. I had invisioned a chocolate butter cream cake with pink, lime green and tangerine fondant pieces. Instead it was white with white and red sugar bubbles...what was I to do? urgh! I started to get a Migraine and I was irritated that it seemed chaotic in the place and there was no one to help me brain storm... I wanted to fold instead I used the pink and made different polka dots sizes and red scrolls......once it was done I felt better but hated it so much!!!!!!! Never again! I will only do cakes that I have creative control! I don't work well under pressure or surround by chaos!
The Day got better and we ended tired and in the mood for a much needed drink!:)
So what now? The semester is over winter is here and strangely I'm sad to have to hang my coat up for five weeks! I know I'll continue to be busy at work and having fun visiting my wonderful friends and family in California! But I know that it is going to get even more busy when the Spring semester starts.I'll be picking up confectionery arts on Wednesdays..
Until then ....No school
