Finally.
[let's take this moment to do a little dance of joy, pretend you're doing a rain dance, if you like]
However, there were two things that I was not very content with.
1. The skull did not appear on the top of my creme brulee. Damn. Caramelisation under the grill caused the sugar to just melt evenly all around.
2. My Mexican chocolate sauce [which has cinnamon, cream, melted dark chocolate and melted semisweet chocolate] looks very similar to poo:(
Anyway, without further adieu...<-[thanks to Shaun Hume, the red squiggle is gone!] I present to you the makings of my skull Cajeta Creme Brulee with Mexican chocolate.
I'll start with the uncooked creme brulee. Apologies for the funny looking template. I'm not much of an artist:P
Now this is after I sifted icing sugar on it. Surprisingly, it turned out quite well. though for some reason I thought of ninja turtles when I saw it.
Anyway, caramelising it was a failure and I completely forgot to take a photo of the failure. But I decided to ice the plate instead and make it more skull like. you can kinda see where my fingers were because the smudges around the eyes are pretty clear. I'm quite happy with the final result. Besides the chocolate looking like poo:(
So there you go.
Until then.

Oh, it really does look like "it", doesn't it? But the rest is cool. I even think the icing sugar scull is a better idea, looks cool against the black plate.

All in a day's work :D
ReplyDeleteAnd I hope they do too. Mind you, it will be an interesting test of how juvenile their minds are, though.
This is true. But My point is that the assumptions and resulting perceptions are only a guess, and while they may indeed give you a fair idea, they can never be entirely accurate.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes. You can have 50 sparkly points just for being awesome :D So now you're 50 points more cooler than everyone else =)
LOL. MY BAD MY BAD. AHAHAHHAHAH(:
