Valrhona Chocolate Concorde

I made this french dessert named Concorde. I used Valrhona Cocoa from France. The dessert is made up of lighy and airy layers of luscious chocolate. Upon eating this decedent dessert, your mouth is delighted with a crunchy texture from the meringue and followed with the soft pillowy mousse.

Concorde is my ultimate chocolate dessert!

Ice Cream Churning

I had so much left over egg yolk from making french macarons. There are alot of options for me to make something out of the egg yolks. Since it is summer, I decided to make ice cream. I happen to have a package of Oreos in my pantry. Cookies N' Cream Ice Cream!

Only 6 Ingredients:

8 egg yolks
2 cups of heavy cream
2 1/2 cups of milk
3/4 cup sugar
3 tbs. vanilla extract
1 package of Oreos

Crushed Oreos

Tangled Birthday Cake

Cake Completely Assembled
It was my goddaughter's 3rd birthday. She loves Disney's Tangled and princesses so I decided I would make her a birthday cake based on the movie.
The cake is a half sheet chocolate sponge cake with whipped cream and fresh strawberries filling. The cake consisted of three layers. After layering the cake, I covered it with green whipped cream and decorated it with flowers made of royal icing.


I covered the tower with marshmallow fondant and piped vines and flowers with royal icing. Fortunately, I found a Rapunzel doll that fit perfectly inside the tower.

Cake without tower.

Cream Puffs

I was craving some cream puffs one day and decided to make them. The chocolate dipped cream puffs has vanilla pastry cream filling. The cream puffs dusted with powdered sugar has a strawberry cream filling inside. To make the strawberry cream filling, I just whipped up heavy cream with powdered sugar and folded pureed fresh strawberries.
