Pulla - Finnish Coffee Bread

Pulla is a very traditional, delicious finnish coffee bread that is fun to make and is delicious. Working and braiding the dough was especially fun. I was nostalgically reminded of my childhood, making similar creations out of play-doh. However, I must admit that pulla is much tastier!

Cherry Pie Cake Stacks

This was a fun project! The cakes were a bit challenging to make as we had to do them in several steps. However, they were very fun to make! The cherry filling was definitely a big hit, and t

he large amount of whip cream helped too!

Black and White Cheescake with Strawberry Coulis

This project was a little bit harder to accomplish, as there were so many steps we had to do for both the crust and the filling. However, it was definitely worth the effort, as it was absolutely delicious! The strawberry coulis just pulled all the flavours together in a wonderful mix of cheesecake, oreo crumble, and strawberries!

Watermelon Bowl

Our watermelon bowl was much more successful than my previous animals..very quick and easy to use, as well as handy!

Cucumber Shark and Apple Bird

After many tedious episodes of garnishing using vegetables and fruits, we decided to try it out for real. It is a lot harder than it looks! My cucumber shark and apple bird look much more dead than alive.





(Failed) Chocolate Truffles

We attempted to make chocolate truffles, but for some weird reason they didn't thicken well and stayed soft and too liquid-y, which made them almost impossible to roll into balls! We only managed to make one before giving up and deciding the rename it as chocolate pudding!

Ginger Chicken Udon Stir Fry

Time to go from sweet to savory! Our next meal was a delicious Ginger Chicken Udon Stir-fry that was delicious, quick to make, and made our breaths smell lovely all day!
