Hot Chocolate with Homemade Marshmallows

Today we made hot chocolate with homemade marshmallows. Although the hot chocolate was nothing special, I liked being able to choose the size and shape of my marshmallows (although I ended up having only a single giant one).

Banana Splits

We spent the past two classes working on banana splits. We made them with bruléed bananas and cooked sugar swirls. Using the blowtorch to melt sugar onto the bananas was cool, but I didn't really liked the taste. The splits looked great, though!

Peanut Brittle

Today we made peanut brittle. It was more difficult than I expected to keep the sugar from burning, but I think that the brittle turned out great and it was delicious.

Cupcake Mosaic

Today, we made a mosaic out of cupcakes. I was a little skeptical about the idea at first, but it turned out to be lots of fun! We made the mosaics in groups of two, and, I have to admit, Kelsey did most of the artistic work on ours. I can't complain, though, because it looked really good at the end!
