Today I did not bake anything sorry to say. Last night I went to Light Up Night in Oakmont, and I woke up sick. I am all stuffy, my throat is sore, and I feel like my head is swimming. So, I did not make anything plus even if I did it would be completely unsanitary.
I was planning on making these cookies with my new Copper Cookie Cutter that is in the shape of a Chefs hat and freeze them for Christmas. I was also going to make Brioche bread this weekend, so that my mom could use it for stuffing for Thanksgiving this Thursday. If anyone has ever had Brioche Bread, there is 9 oz of butter, and it just makes the absolute bread stuffing!
On Friday, in my Breakfast Pastry class we made Pithivier. In definition Pithivier means: A classical French Pastry believed to have been created in 1506 by a French patissere named Provenchere. This pastry was probably one of my favorite things I have made here at LCB. It's really really pretty, and definitely fun to make. Then entire process took 2 days to make. This pastry is usually found in the South of France. But when I open up my own bakery in a few years I would definitely love to bring it to my bakery.
Here is the French cake fully done!! I had a lot of fun making this, and I just think it is absolutely beautiful!!!!
Here is what the cake looks like cut in half. The center is filled with Almond Paste. Which if you like Almonds you will love this cake!! I didn't eat any, the first day I brought it home, because once you are around it long enough, you just can't do it. I however I did have a bit of it the next day. It's very good, not too sweet! It's perfect!
This is what it looked like before I put it in the oven to bake! It's still very pretty!!!
I hope everyone liked my French cake I make in class on Friday!! I would love to make it again soon!!!!!
As for tomorrow my mom and I are going to go see CAKE BOSS!! If I am able to take pictures, there will be pictures up this week!!
Until then have a safe and Happy Thanksgiving!!!!!!
