Sugar!
SUGAR!!!
It's fun times at the bakery when I'm working. Although their style is not quite what I would do if I had complete creative control, some of it is cure and it's a good place for me to start and work on my basics over and over and over again. I'm learning what it takes to run a bakery and I also get to make note of things I would do differently. Creative differences aside, I'm a total shutterbug at work. Check out some of the snaps I took of things I've made at work!
I think this might be what love looks like :) rainbow sprinkles on a chocolate cupcake.
little tiny cherry tarts
can you spot my initials?
dolphin sugar cookies
everything I make I seem to make billions of. Creativity in mass.
You should have seen all of the gumpaste flowers I made that day. An endless field of baby pink flowers on a shiny stainless steel countertop.
I liked these cupcakes. Everytime I make a cupcake design that's different from their standard this one person gets a bit miffed. Does no one else crave variety?!So those are just a few. I've also iced countless cakes in buttercream and whipped cream and baked tons of cookies. I really do enjoy my job now. I dont make as much money as I did before and I'm working much longer days but I have fun while I'm there.
Other sound bites from my life:
*Today a customer told me that I look like Cinderella. I get a surprising number of compliments at work. People can be so nice sometimes :)
*I want to open up the West Coast version of Charm City Cakes ;)
*I might be going hiking tomorrow (I hate hiking but I really love these people so I'll go anyway)
*I MISS LA!
*I'm a million times happier and generally better this summer than last summer.
Love,
