Three new tortes this week. Nothing very new or interesting, seems like the class is going to be more of the same for the rest of the quarter.
Our first cake was a white chocolate mousse cake with raspberry. It came out pretty well. A decorated jaconde filled with white chocolate mousse, a raspberry insert, and raspberry glaze on top. These tortes are all becoming rather similar.
Next was an eros torte. Again, decorated jaconde filled with caramel mousse and caramelized walnuts and pecans.
The third cake was the one that I worked on, a chocolate mint mousse cake. It's a chocolate genoise base, filled with chocolate mousse and a mint creme brulee insert. It was then sprayed with chocolate to finish. I'm actually pretty proud of it. It came out really well and my cakes are usually average at best.
