Plated Desserts Workshop

Today we had our plated desserts workshop. It was a bit of a change, as there was no demo preceeding it and we got to work in pairs. Chef H gave us a general run-down at the beginning of class on how to make each recipe and away we went. It wasn't too difficult a workshop. I just find that I am completely hopeless with plated desserts. The pressure builds up and I freeze; no ideas come to mind when it's time to plate everything.

We made two types of creme brulee:
Pistachio creme brulee filled with griotte cherries

Caramel creme brulee
Next came the actual plated desserts:
Craquelin with raspberry coulis and kirsch light cream

Macaron with anis cream and raspberries
