Baking Bootcamp

In early November, I took a three day baking course at the Chopping Block. There were six of us in the class and in three days we all progressed from being baking novices to baking pros!

Each day we prepared lots of sweet goodies - from brioche to apple pie, croissants to chocolate tarts, the list was nearly endless!

Here are some pics of some of the more interesting & intricate projects!
