    Sounds good, I would like to try this! What ratios are you using? Ounce and half of gin, 1 ounce each of St germain and campari. Thanks Kerry!

    When you are in DC, I highly recommend that you check out ACE Beverage. They have an amazing selection and if you don't see something there, just ask, its probably in their storage room.

    Kim, thank you very much! Yes, that was the technique, dip and twirl the cupcakes. Some were prettier than others but they were all tasty.

    deensiebat, gorgeous popsicle! I decided to go with a classic, vanilla cupcakes with chocolate frosting.

    Nathan Myhrvold was on the Kojo Nnamdi show yesterday. Here is the link to hear the radio interview. Kojo Nnamdi has a show on WAMU.org, American University Radio.

    Chocolate cards

    curls replied to a topic in Pastry & Baking

    Can you get parve white chocolate? Then you can use the white chocolate to decorate the dark chocolate card.

    Your version of an almond joy looks delicious. Might have to make that recipe myself.

    I have one and it works well. We use it for the carbonated water and do no not use their syrups (even their regular syrups use artificial sweeteners, at least when we first purchased the unit). It easier than constantly bringing cases of bottled water into the house. Williams-Sonoma carries some soda syrups from the Sonoma Syrup Company that work well with the carbonated water.

    Sorry, didn't realize the complications involved. My original thought was that we might get a day at Albert Uster, like we had in 2009 and that they could show us how to do pulled sugar work. Little did I know that Lisa Shock (love her avatar picture) might be attending and that she could do a demo . That would be fabulous!

    Perhaps we could learn how to do some pulled sugar work?

    Picked some lovely Red Haven peaches this weekend and made a batch of peach jam from one of Christine Ferber's recipes. Have enough extra peaches that I may make some peach ice cream too.

    I am curious, since this is the best non-box cake recipe you have found so far, have you tried the "FINALLY!!!!!! That perfect homemade yellow cake" at Chef Talk? If so how do the two compare? Oli, I have been planning to bake the perfect homemade yellow cake from Chef Talk but have not baked it yet. Will definitely compare the two when I do. I have baked yellow cakes from the Cake Bible, Whimsical Bakehouse, Shirley Corriher, and Alton Brown. While they all have their merits, my current favorite is Sherry Yard's yellow cake.

    Kim, the cake and frosting recipe are from "Desserts by the Yard: From Brooklyn to Beverly Hills: Recipes from the Sweetest Life Ever" by Sherry Yard and Wolfgang Puck. Recipes for both start on page seven and you can see them using Amazon's "Look Inside" feature. The texture on the cake was great (best non-box yellow cake recipe I have found so far).

    Yellow cake, chocolate frosting and pistachio paste ganache filling. Cake and frosting recipe are from Sherry Yard. Pistachio paste ganache by Derrick (leftover from the eGullet Chocolate Conference). Delicious!
