Advanced 1 Final!!

I am finally finished with my third quarter.. I'm quite excited that this class is done. I have loved every class but really this one just wasn't very stimulating. For our final project we had to make 10 items.. One of them being the bread showpiece we made last week. We had a lot of fun and made lots of yummy stuff. For my group..

For our plated dessert we made pineapple sorbet, fried pineapple rings with a mango sauce..
Our cake is a vanilla chiffon, chocolate mousse and a raspberry italian buttercream

Bread Showpiece

For part of our final we had to make bread showpieces and this is my groups showpiece. Since it is almost the 4th of July that was our theme. It actually turned out better than we expected.. I thought it was going to be a complete disaster when we started assembling the pieces because some of the parts baked funny and they didn't quite go together very good. As you can see it is kind of leaning well that was unavoidable because our base is a little lopsided but all and all it turned out ok.. It was lots of fun and I thought we were quite creative and everything on there is made of bread.
