a little baking memoir: la vieille patisserie francaise buffet

god im so happy to say: FINALLY IT WAS OVER! =D it had been 3weeks of stressful hard work for our school buffet. i had so much to do! took me a while to think of what design would best suit for our buffet - french theme; decorations, labels, posters and invitations etc

we needed a showpiece .. so this is what i came up with: it is suspose to represent the eiffel tower in a way~ observe it closely .. (if it does look like it somehow) =P hahahhaha i was so shattered bec on the buffet day, i was driving, and the showpiece tumbled over =( so it wasnt as good as this for the buffet. luckily i could patch it all up in time!!

little chocolate logos for all guests

im pretty happy with the logo design, i might consider using it for sutsa :]

name tags for everyone!

pasta frame for menu (which gave me the biggest backpain everrrrrrrrrr) but was so worth it in the end :]

little b&w frames

table cards

donation jar

my little cupboard! surprisingly i found my candles i had purchased from qld ages ago! came in handy! =D

took me the whole morning just to decorate the ugly classroom into our buffet ahahaha this was one side! for some reason i didnt take the other side -___-

some of the food prepared by my fellow classmates for the buffet day:

baked blueberry cheesecake

carrot cupcakes & vanilla cupcakes

creme horns & palmiers

croquembouche

"violets" are the traditional flowers placed on the croquembouche. so i thought 'ok, i'll try make em!' but they turned out .. to be some sort of flower?? hahahhah!! -_________- whoopsi! thanks for atsuko & liz giving me a hand with the flowers, u guys did an awesome job ;] and congrats to eri & grace for the amazing croquembouche!
