Last Saturday I was able to heed a six hour class on Baking 101 with Chef Patti Loanzon of Heny Sison Culinary School.
Based on the lecture, the objective of the class is to introduce basic approach and vocabulary to make each to follow simple recipes and will enable to outstrip a more complicated and complex recipes.

Yes I knew a little on baking and yes I can follow recipe instructions but sometimes, there are question that pops my mind. I am desirous to find answers. The internet is of great help but of course, having a first hand knowledge from real experts will always be the best way of learning. I am more confident now after I attended the class because somehow, I not only knew how to bake goodies but also I now knew some technical aspects on baking.
I know I have a long long way to go but at least I have begun a percentage of it.

Glad I enrolled myself.

Oh you might asked what did we baked, we prepared Lola’s Yellow Cake, Chocolate Banana Cake, Snickerdoodles, Chocochip cookies, After Eight Brownies and Caramel bar.

So last night, I wanted to try the recipe myself so I made two of my personal favorites

Tada!!!!

Yellow Cake

It’s been a long time that I wanted to bake a great tasting Yellow Cake and this recipe is just plain perfect and I bake this too for my sister’s birthday. She just loved it. (Happy Birthday lil sister. love yah)

Caramel Bar

And these caramel bars are simply yummy. Hubs also favored this :)

So after the basic 101 class I wanted to try different lecture. Attending baking classes is so addictive. lolz!!! Hopefully my work sched will cooperate.

So that’s it for now….have a great week everyone!

*Drools*. Grabe, kakagutom! I want to bite that picture of caramel bar. Heehee. I’m curious how the After Eight brownie tasted. I’m occasionally munching After Eight chocos. Mint effect in the brownies? =)

Actually I really don’t know why it is called after eight brownies until Chef patti nga explain na it has a slight mint flavor. When I tasted it, it was good. :)
