Pro Pastry Class - Weekend 2

A few photos of this week's pastry creations (the ones I actually worked on)...

Chocolate Angel Food Cake with raspberries and creme brulee topping (and yes, I got to use a flame thrower to toast the top of the cake)

Chocolate peanut butter cups, which were so easy to make, it's not worth it to buy Reese's anymore.


Pecan pie, which I normally don't care for, but Mary's is so not sugary sweet that I actually like it a lot.

Salmon en croute, which is a large piece of salmon dressed up in (homemade - not store bought!)puff pastry and baked, and which is absolutely delicious.

Our final spread on Sunday afternoon. In addition to some of the items I made, there's also lemon meringue tarts, caramelized apple pie, three differerent chocolate cakes, a lemon chiffon cake, tiramisu, and a few other items.
