Chocolate Modelling



After such a long long time, i finally took up chocolate modeling...since there hasn't been any orders for the past few month. it's during these "dry" months that I would use the time to acquire new knowledge. So, chocolate modeling class came at the right time. Closed my eyes and paid for the class.

It was fairly simple but as all cakes...it does take work. Which some people couldn't phantom why fondant cakes costs a bomb! We learned how to make the chocolate fondant and how to shape roses out of it. And since roses, beside ribbon roses, aren't my forte, I have long decided to make calla lillies instead. I already had a design in mind for the class and went straight into it after 2 practice tries making the roses. Sorry, no pics. It was so mediocre! And it would jeapordize my reputation as a decorator. So anyway, lillies besides being my fav flower to model, it was simple...much simpler than any methods of modeling roses.

Here's a close up of what i made, which was eaten up by my kids and nephews.

If you look closely, can u spot a flaw?
