Last Friday I managed to visit the above exhibition at Mid Valley. I guess I came too early as the judges were still there, and we were not allowed to go near the cakes exhibition until the judges had done their rounds giving the scores. All in all, I was a bit disappointed as I expected more suppliers booth, and to get the chance to buy all kinds of bakery ingredients and equipment. Probably the booth were still not open, I’m not sure.

Here are some pictures of the show piece.. all of which are really amazing and must have taken many days to complete.

Borders – Royal icing lace and extension work :

How can you possibly eat this dragon ? (or is it edible in the first place)

This has a Cinderella theme, I’m not sure what it’s made of, looks like sugar to me.

Pastry Pro’s display – so cute ! The Simpson’s family.

More sugarcraft display, amazing how the witch can just hang like that, there must be some wire or hook inside..

Some sugar work – pull sugar

Well, all the displays were very pretty.. these are the work of professional chef, from international hotels. Made me realise that there are so much more to learn in this cake decorating line. I should have chosen some Pastry course for my Degree, instead I took Urban Land Economics.. no where close to what I’m doing now. Funny how life turns out for me :) .

p/s : You can see a few more pics at Shifting Sand blog.

    I wished I had gone. But looking at all the participant’s work…it scares me actually, of the knowledge I am lacking.

    Thanks for sharing the pics.

    Salam min….i kalau kek mcm kat gambar tu for sure tak makan punya, bukan sebab tak selera, tapi i takut..pulak2 yg dragon tu….nanti tidur malam pun boleh mimpi. Kek yg ada kerja “extension” mmg makan masa, tenaga dan tahap kesabaran pun kena tinggi.
