Walnut crescent ~ Pozsonyi kifli

Hi Dears, 

As I promised I brought this tasty walnut crescent recipe, that we learnt in school. 

The shining is not as beautiful as it was supposed to be. (It should be fragmented as the beiglis, you can reach it, if you lubricate the top of them with egg yolk a few times, and you should wait until it dries, then lubricate again. I didn't wait enough,because I baked them late in the evening, and I just couldn't wait. :D ) 

So, let's move on, I think they are still beauties. :)

Yogurt & Chocolate cake 2 in 1

Hi! :)

As I promised I brought the recipe of this yin-yang cake I baked last time! 

To be honest, I haven't decided yet, if I like the result or not. 

I wanted to make something different, than usual, something more interesting, and I think it worked. :)

Untill the yogurt solidified with the gelatin, I had placed a baking sheet in the middle to separate it from the chocolate part.

It needed a night to cool in the fridge.

I baked this for my father's, my brother's and for my birthdays, as we celebrated together. :)

Confectioner studies - 3rd week

Hello! :)

This week we really baked many many goodies.

This week was all about shortbread! 

I brought You great photos as well, so come and check. 

It was fun!

My Birthday Cakes...

Hi Dears,

In my family, September is the month of birthdays. 

We celebrate 3 birthdays together, my Father's, my Brother's, and mine... :)

That's why I have the occasion for baking a cake for myself as well, as we hold it together. :)

Guess which cake I baked myself? :D 

(As a little help, two of them came from confectioneries, my Mom made one, and me one) So?

Confectioner studies 2nd week

Hi Dears!

Last week was really fun in school, as we actually started to work in the kitchen. :)

Confectionery studies - 1. week

Hi Dears! :)

I am SO super excited, to announce that my Confectionery studies began this week! :D

I decided, that I would keep You updated in the blog as well, in a regular, weekly post, and if I manage, with photos as well. :)

For those, who don't know about me much, I already have a Bsc./BA degree certificate as an Economist specialized in Catering and Hotel management. 

But now I'm started a 1 year long course, which will give me a prof. confectioner degree as well, at the end. This certificate will allow me to start my own confectionery sometime if I will be able to do it ... :D

 And the most important part, with this school, I will develop my baking skills on a higher level! :)

So, let's start with the first week...

Cocoa CheeseCake

Hi Dears! :)

I brought You these beauties, a little cake with lots of goodies inside.

I'm sorry for not posting for a while, omg, two weeks without cakes...

But as I mentioned, besides my job, I finally started my Confectioner studies. 

It will be 1 year studying in school and I will have an internship as well in a Confectionery. So I figured that I will post here regularly about the real kitchen studies. :) 

So as a kind of compensation, from now on You will have at least one post per week from me on the learning project. :D I am super excited about it. 

The first day was yesterday, although it was just theoretical, and those I have already learned in the University, so for me it will be easy to pass.

The real practices will be on every Wednesdays. :)  

And next year around this time I will take the biggest exam to become a professional Confectioner. :) 

OK, let's get back to this sweet. We celebrated our 5th anniversary with my Honey. We met in a high school camp and soon we were starting dating. 

Now, we are engaged and a couple of month ago we started looking for our own flat. We are still on the project. :) 

I baked this cake for him, and I wanted it to be special, so I used quite a lot of kinds of ingredients, but the good part is, that I managed to do it really fast.

3 cakes with one sponge

Hello Dears! 

I hope You enjoyed the summer, to finish it nicely I brought not just one, but 3 cakes for You! :)

As for us, we had our late-summer vacation last week, for 4 days.

It was short but we filled it with very-many adventures. :) 

It rained for two days, but we still could go sight-seeing, and to bathhouses, and we even took a little fairy train ride in the forest, so it was super joyful.

When we arrived back home, a birthday party was ahead of us, with 3 birthdays to celebrate, so I jumped in a baking project again.

As we hold it as a pic-nic party in the Margaret-island, I tried to prepare them to be easily take-aways. 

I used one main mixture, and as a last touch I flavored them differently. :) 

Let's see how...

Home-made muesli bars

Hello! :)

As September is coming, oh it's so sad to even think about it...

So, school is coming again. Even for me, although I got my diploma in March.

But, I am starting a 1 year course to become a prof. pastry chef, hurray! :D

And for the school-/ or workdays we need some fast breakfast ideas.

 This muesli is like that.

 You can prepare it the previous evening in about 30 minutes, and the fast breakfast take-away is ready. :) 

I was inspired by this recipe, although I changed the elements for those I had at home. You can add honey, cinnamon, apple pieces, raisins, and so many options you have to flavor the basic recipe... 

I'm sure you can prepare your favorite.

Salty sticks and biscuits

Hey Guys! 

I am obsessed with my new cookie-cutter stampers that I ordered through ebay...

I have a collection now, like I have cat molds, Marie cat face from Disney, animal molds, Easter set, flower set, and now I tried my fruit and summer collection that just arrived. 

I made a super easy, comfort food, You can call them snacks as well. The main taste is salty, but they are enhanced with cumin, that I love in snacks. :)
