.:what's ambition:.

Well something triggered me and I got so excited and had the urge to post what I had in mind, in my blog. It may be nothing special to some of you but it is really something to me.

I have no idea why lately I am so into pastry and baking even though I am a Culinary student. Ha! Perhaps I love baking & cooking at the same time. The very first time I started baking was at my so called Godparents' house. They are Americans and bake a lot! And I love going to their house to watch and learn from them. That was my first time I baked Chocolate Chip Cookies. Until now, my sister and I still do bake Chocolate Chip Cookies at least once a year. Other than cookies, I got to bake Banana Pie, Christmas Cookies (with colourful sugar icing decorations), and some other desserts. It was fun!

I had browsed through numbers of recipe books and I have always wanted to bake Gingerbread Cookies. Until now, I am still searching for this particular taste which my taste buds have been longing for. I could not find any words to describe it but somethings tells me that I could find the taste in Gingerbread Cookies. Besides Gingerbread Cookies, I have always wanted to bake a proper cake. The cakes I had baked were alright but not up to my expectation.

Now talking about cakes, this is something that got me all excited! I have this desire to bake my own wedding cake! But of course I have to come up with a design for my wedding cake. However, first thing first, I need to know how to bake a nice proper cake with cream, icing and decoration.

I had seen extremely beautiful pictures of very nicely done, wedding cakes in books, internet and magazines. There were all absolutely stunning! Some images are shown below.

They are so gorgeous!

Since I have my 1 year internship or perhaps 2, I will find my ways to gain opportunities to learn how to bake a cake. Or even how to make the cake decoration. Or perhaps get to know one of the pastry chef or trainees, and probably in future I could make my own wedding cake under their supervision or with them assisting me. Haha! But of course, I really hope I will be able to make my own wedding cake myself!

From there, I could teach my kids or even make one for their wedding too!
