Some quick mini sugar showpieces that Chef Angnardo and I whipped up for an open house. Displays casting, pulling, stretching, and blowing sugar. The base is clear with a rose poured in. Then I stretched the logs by making longs tubes of sugar by stretching it to have holes in it. I also pulled some flowers, leaves and abstract branches. I also poured some sugar into cold water to get the crazy design and blew a sugar ball
This is the team that put together this showpiece. It is made completely out off live dough, which means it is made out of yeast and thus have low control over how much and where is expands, and natural colors (lavander petals for the center of the flower, cheyenne pepper for the petals, and corn meal for the wheat stalks) We also used different techniques and types of bread to put it together, like baguettes, flatbreads, and carving. My group wanted the showpiece to look abstract and beautiful, and also look like on that could compete. This is completely edible.
