Well, I have enjoyed a great rest and taken care of things that needed taking care of and now we are about to kick start 2013 in a real hurry.
Despite all the turmoil in the world at the moment, there seems to be an amazing need for great pastries, cakes and anything sweet and along with it pastry chefs to produce it all.
With multiple projects on the event horizon this is going to be amazing year.
I promise despite the lack of recent posts, the posting will get better and a new camera will be bought to shoot everything to make it look delicious and as attractive as it should.
Check back with us regularly folks and despite the start of 2013 for me being mid February, I'll make up for it in the coming weeks and months..
First stop on the itinerary was a return to Bahrain cooking for a VIP client wishing to see how to change things up a little. In 5 days from start to finish with one assistant to weigh my recipes, I was able to produce 20 varieties of cakes, 5 types of cookies and a selection of molded and hand dipped chocolates. Over two days the food was sampled and savored and the results without a doubt where thoroughly enjoyed...

Today is the final day in Bahrain, but not without a stop at the famed Trader Vic's to wash down a Rum Cosmo and a Samoan Fogcutter, in celebration of an old and long enduring friendship with a friend who now resides elsewhere. This week will see me head to Dubai, then onto Kuwait and if all quietens down a stop in Cairo.
If one thing has come from this past week back in the land where I have spent the past 7 years, it is that I adore baking in this country to a clientele who truly know their international cuisine and I adore the expressions of gratitude when I can see their faces light up with pleasure having tried and tasted my efforts.
Good food tastes great, and great food is a good to share.
