opera gateau!!! that was wat we made today. three layers of biscuit joconde brushed with coffee syrup, topped with chocolate ganache n coffee buttercream n finally coated with chocolate ganache. this is deadly. u can onlye at a small piece. usually i dune at the cakes i bring back coz we sample some from the chef. but this one, i had to take a small piece. it's FANTABULOUS. the king of cakes!!!
the worst part was to decorate the cake. i'm not that creative i've to admit. also, we had to write in chocolate, 'OPERA' on top of the cake. my god....mine was pathetically small. anyway, i enjoyed making it.
while i was trying to decorate my cake, i had to go n fix my ice cream. we didn't complete it yesterday. that took up abit of my time coz i had to clean the machine. damn!
anyway, i made it home with three tubs of ice cream n two gateaus. my arms are aching a little now. i feel that making the cake is not that much of a challlenge compared to bringing it home with me.
back to work tmrw!
