I practiced fabricating my chicken, and the end product is now chicken noodle soup. Mhmmm delicious. Most importantly I finished the spiderman cake. Personaly, it's not my best work, or my favorite (I'm my biggest critic.) but in the end, it wasn't all bad. And as promised I'm including a picture.

Week update


Hello everyone!
I'm not sure who exactly it is reading this. But I'm sure you're ou there.
I'm here to inform you of my crazy week that has yet to come to an end.

Let's start off with school: it has been taking over my life. School papers, science bullsh**, and a 4 hour long sanitation class that's a waste of my time.
But let me get right into the interesting part.
Culinary was something today, we worked on beef and pork! Well I worked on pork, I made pepper pork chops! It had bell peppers, mushrooms, onions, and LOTS of butter and oil. It was all braised together with a bit of chicken stock to create a giant pot of deliciousness. Mhmm good stuff. I would have shown you (if I knew who you were) but I don't think of taking pictures.

On the baking side of my life, I recieved an order for a birthday cake. A spiderman birthday cake to be exact!! It's not fondant And it's only a sheet cake, but I'm excited non the less. I'm going to have fun. I'll be sure to take pictures to show you guys. Also, my school is holding a gingerbread decorating thing. I'm not sure what to call it. But I will be participating in that, making my own AMAZING gingerbread house. I will be sure to keep you guys posted. :]
On that note, I'm off to bake my life away!

Goodnight! -Alberto

All About Alberto

Hello everyone!!! Welcome to our blog! Jasmine and I are fairly new at this, and it will definatly be a little bit of trial and error, but I'm really excited about this blog because I'll


be able to share my thoughts, opinions and experiences with strangers that share the same interest (that would be you).

First of all, I may be only 18 years old, but don't let the age fool you. I have two years of culinary experience under my belt, and I'm not talking about your highschool homech class. Most of my knowledge is in the baking side of the industry, but I am do want to pursue a carreer as a restaurant chef.
I have competed and placed in a state wide baking competition, which later helped me use my knowledge to bake and decorate some pretty unique fondant cakes; pictures will be posted soon. As far as working in the industry, that is a story for another day.
This post is fairly long already, so I'll leave you to soak in this information before bombarding you with more.

Bye!
- Alberto.
