Bake King Open House Demo Classes

Bake King had celebrated their 60th anniversary over the last weekend and I attended 2 of their open house demo classes.

I signed up 2 classes that interest me very much. One is the Chocolate Hokkaido Cupcakes, where we learnt how to bake the chiffon cake and make the pastry cream from instructor Gina Tan. You know I'm very much a chiffon cake fan and it's great to learn more about it. The cake is delicious!

The other is the Ribbon Fondant Cake. I have always wanted to learn more about making fondant cakes but very hesitant to try out. Really learnt a lot from the experienced instructor Tricia Tjhin. See how beautiful the cake is!

I also received their 60th anniversary recipe book and an apron. Plus I got to enjoy a few desserts. It was a very fun day! Thank you Bake King!

Bake King Chocolate Desserts Demo Class

I attended a Chocolate Desserts Demo Class at Bake King last Sunday (18 March). The baking instructor is Mr Louis Tanuhadi who is an Ambassador for Tulip Chocolate from Indonesia, which is one of the largest chocolate manufacturers in Asia. He has several years experience as a pastry chef in Germany and Indonesia and has won several chocolate competitions in the region.

A candid shot before the class starts

Mr Louis Tanuhadi is a very humourous person and very generous in sharing his knowledge about baking. My friend and I are very glad to attend his class and I definitely learn a lot more about baking with chocolates. The class lasted for more than 3 hours from 10am to 1pm plus and desserts were served throughout the class, one after another. :)

These were the 4 chocolate desserts that we learnt in this demo class.

Steamed Brownies

Chocolate Lychee Mousse
My favourite dessert of the day

Chocolate Lava Cake

American brownies

The American brownies that we brought back, with a piece of steamed brownie.

We also received a door gift of one 250g of Tulip chocolate compound and a chocolate mould.

Thank you Bake King for inviting me to this demo class. :)
