Happy Valentines Day 2013

Sometimes It's Food For Fun #5 by -G.umi-

Note: Until the year before last, I used to make stuff for my friends for Valentine's Day. These days, I usually let the younger members pick up the slack. In terms of how much work I have put into desserts, I think that the one from Valentines Day 2013 was the most effort-intensive.

First let me introduce my assistant for this project... Anemone :3

Wait that's not right XD. I meant Anne-chan :D

What Does the Anemone Flower Mean?

The beautiful Anemone flower symbolizes:

  • Protection against evil and ill wishes
  • The approach of a rain storm when the petals close up
  • Forsaken or forgotten love and affection
  • Anticipation and excitement for something in the future
  • Fairies and their magical world of twilight
  • The death of a loved one or the loss of them to someone else
  • Protection against disease and illness
  • The arrival of the first spring winds
  • Bad luck or ill omens

Despite its delicate beauty, the Anemone has developed a mixed set of meanings depending on the culture viewing the flower. Some see it as protection against disease, while others feel the opposite way and warn against it as an omen of impending illness.

Where to begin... Ah yes. Making angel wings out of white chocolate without planning, practice, or patience. Getting frustrated and doodling around. Okay!!! lets call it, "stop what you are doing and brain storm." XD

Most of the first night involved freehand chocolate designs. Then, the next day was spent designing a way to make better wings. All the past nights' disasters were also melted into my big white chocolate heart... which was then smashed into pieces again to begin the forging process once more.

No Mercy.. :Overwatch: x :Left 4 Dead:

Here is what I came up with to remedy our inability to freehand the chocolate wings .T_T. &nbsp;It was used to mass produce wings. I also made hearts to go with the theme of Valentine's Day :D!!

Day 3

 . . . . . .T.T. . . . . .  

Note: I Think This Final Stretch Was All Nighter D:

Finally. All the preparations have been made and we can make the final product! Let the Chocolate Heart Angel Winged Strawberries rain from the sky!!!

And so an army of Heart Angel Winged Strawberries was born. The difficulty level at the time was Unknown. Still it was fun and someday I may want to revisit this creation. &lt;3 &lt;3 &lt;3 .

And so an army of Heart Angel Winged Strawberries was born. The difficulty level at the time was Unknown. Still it was fun and someday I may want to revisit this creation. <3 <3 <3 .

First, we put wave stripped chocolate on one side of all of the strawberries. Eventually the strawberry would be wrapped in lines of chocolate, buffering the details in the piece. Let the first side of chocolate cool and harden. Then, flip the strawberry over and get ready for the difficult part. 

The Final Side is a five step process that needs to be done all at once.

  1. Make lines in a criss-crossed pattern with milk chocolate.
  2. Fill in a heart on the middle of the strawberry with milk chocolate.
  3. Attach 4 white chocolate wings onto the milk chocolate heart on 4 corners.
  4. Attach the white chocolate heart onto the bottom of the heart.
  5. Hold all the 5 white chocolate pieces in place until the milk chocolate hardens enough to hold the wings and heart into place.

~After that you should end with something like this~

I thought one was hard to make... but then I made four..

Every one of them is unique. No two creations are the same.

After you stress out over four... Making the rest is easy :D

After finishing up with all the strawberries, I ended up having a lot of extra milk chocolate. So I made a big crunch chocolate circle platform - basically a chocolate intensive cookie. AND THEN I DECORATED IT!!!

This was Food For Fun :3

The End

.Wait One More Thing.

I realized that my true creative nature comes out when what I am doing is intended for another person. With that I have to say, thank you to everyone who knows me personally and sticks around long enough to get some kind of creation from me. Without you people, life might be bland.

Honestly This Might Be Too Much Chocolate For One Person.

For the year of 2013, Valentines Day.

This creation was inspired for you Anne.

Until the day I can no longer recognize you as my imouto.

Please continue to watch over me.

Mistakes Can Be Fixed Through Improvisation

Sometimes It's Food For Fun #4 by -G.umi-

It happens to all of us and most of the time, you would just straight up start over. But.. Not this time :3 One day I was experimenting with brownies. I wanted to see what would happen if I added some white chocolate chips to the batter. What ended up happening was a very bad unevenly cooked looking brownie. I was kind of distressed with the result because even though it was an experiment, I was eventually going to bring it to a family party. Seeing that I didn't have enough time or materials to start over, I began to contemplate my options. . . .

Look at those SAD SAD SAD SAD SAD cracks in my finished brownie....

Eventually I thought, "What if I just crush this entire brownie into bits and serve it like that?" This is my attempt to mask the fact that I made a mistake. XD. But then it got me thinking, just crushed brownies is kind of boring. I needed to do something more to make this dish seem presentable and desirable. With that, my background in works with strawberries hit me. I'll make this into a triple layer chocolate x strawberries x chocolate dessert. So I got right to work.

Then more crumbles of brownies layered on top and on the tray the dish sits on as decoration. Success!!!

In the end, it turned out just fine and my family loved it.

This is me.. Barely making it in time before we left the house to go to the party... I have such a big chromium..

Lazy Cat...Blue on the inside, Pusheen on the outside

Sometimes It's Food For Fun #3 by -G.umi-

So one of our friends is coming back from a trip to her hometown. She likes Pusheen the cat, so we decided to make a Pusheen cake for her return party. Unfortunately, a lot of the pictures of the cake-making process were lost. So here is the start and the finish.

For some reason I wanted to add a twist to the cake, so I chose blue cake batter.&nbsp;

It was perfect :3

One of the biggest difficulties we found was making the grey frosting with food dye. The amount of food coloring mixed in was scary. Later on we would learn that you can actually buy black frosting from specialty shops... That would have saved us like 2 hours...
