Semester 2, week 6, class 20

Today, we made petit fours.
They were pretty time consuming, these are what made us late the past two days.
So instead of making 48, we made only 20-24, to save time, and so other classes behind us could continue on with their day.

We started off with the slab cake
Which we cut up into strips.
Slab cake with lemon filling, covered with a thin layer of butter cream and marzipan.

Then, we took those strips, and cut them into various shapes.
Various shapes, diamonds, squares, triangles, rectangles.

Theeeeennn, we covered these things in fondant.
My group chose, orange, pink, green, and yellow.
But there wasn't enough food colouring in this shit, so it didn't turn out quite..bright.
Anyways...
This was pretty annoying.
Trying to get it even along the sides... which it wasn't quite yet here.

Yah. I'm a pretty big fucking slob.

So, colour them bad boys up with the fondant, and then we get again, shitty piping gel.
This time, chocolate... This is when it got really fun!!! (not)

The rectangle. Colour- Orange!!!!!


Diamond. Colour- Pink!!!
(and yet again, my photo gets flipped..wtf?)

Triangle. Colour-green!!!

Square. Colour-Yellow!!!

Them in the box.
I was pretty bummed about the colours. They all looked white.
Too runny, not enough colouring in it.
Also, pissed about spending all the time on it, and then using a shitty piping gel.
It piped on nice, and then 2 minutes later, splooged out, like you can see in this picture.

Petit fours. I hate you.
