A Giant World of Tiny Food.

Well then!

2010-10-04T07:54:00.000-07:00

It's been awhile now hasn't it.With changes happening in the world of The Posh Panda I've decided to go back to the blogs. For a short while I'll be posting the most delicious and photogenic foods from the last year.

Today there is a selection from the last few months.

Chicken Parmesan with bacon and sourdough garlic bread.

Carrot soup with herbs.

Chicken nuggets with a spicy honey mayo dipping sauce

Chicken nuggets with onions, fresh herbs baked with garlic butter and drizzled with honey mustard.

Fried wontons filled with a nutella/PB/honey and strawberry flavoured marshmallow. Light powdered sugar sprinkle and a honey/cocao/cinnamon sauce.

Pan fried sourdough bread with fresh sage, garlic, butter.

Bread dough microwaved with egg white and yolk overtop just before serving

Beef heart fritter served with greek yogurt and frank's hot sauce.

Semi homemade pizza with deli olives, shallots, vino&formaggio sausage, sweet pepper, mozzerella, goat cheese, and the in the tube pizza dough. Tasted a bit like pizza on a croissant.

Marinara on penne with meat balls and lots of cheese. The end of birthday dinner that was filled with tastiness.

So tasty I might need to repeat some soon.

Never forget that food is a joy. Deliciousness is not an option. Eat fresh and local and you wont regret it.

Graduation cake

2009-05-25T17:04:00.000-07:00

This cake was delicious and looked so nice 3 hours before we got there. but then the insides fell out a bit and the top slide off. i managed to put most of it back, lucky it was a PB&J sammie so it still looked good. the cake is lemon and raspberry cream filling and the grapes are mint cake truffles. I learn a lot each time i do a cake and this time i learned that if i am traveling with a cake over a long distance i need to assemble there or i need to cover the lot in fondant. So the first pics are of the cake b4 the trip and the last are the "disaster"

and then ...

but i was so happy cause, despite the cake becoming "difficult" it was devoured. there were 1/2 the grapes left and a single corner of the cake, 3inches or so. there were 2 sheet cakes there (store bought by other people ) that were hardly touched. I was definitely happy with it.

Also, because of it, i am making a wedding cake next month for 100ish people, just need to work out how much it will cost me. For now I plan, Hooray for cakes!!

CAKE!

2009-04-13T19:40:00.000-07:00

These are the cakes I made inthe last month. I have improved substantially.

Birthday cake for roomie of BF's sister. covered in tiny icing lady bugs and each lady bug cake has a different face.
What I Learned: Dont try to take out a cake from the pan too soon. Super soft cake doesn't like to be frosted. If all else fails, Brighten up the colors.

Cake was white lady bugs and flower, and chocolate cake base with chocolate & peanutbutter filling.

Made this for BF's Sister's Best friend. Beach hut with ocean and big leaf door.

Things I Learned: 3am is no time to be decorating a cake. Pretzel sticks are a life saver. Put on the crumb beach 1st. Premaking leaves = so much easier.

I dont remember getting the plate back :-(, alas.

Easter cake was asked for 3 days before the delivery day. redonkulous! but is ok. First time working with fondant. Ill post my recipe later, I merged 2 popular recipes.

What I Learned:730 am is no time to STILL be decorating a cake. Fondant is sticky, but easy. Flowers are time consuming to make. Frosting must be thick and not runny and melty. Fondant is an easy fix for a lumpy cake. Dry cake+ spritz+steam= moist cake. Everybody loves lemon. Scratch cake isn't the devil. A cake covered in fondant takes smaller pieces per person.

my first every flower!

Everyone loved the cake and I got monies for it! My first monies cake!

Mission Statement

2008-05-28T13:01:00.001-07:00

WELCOME TO MY FIRST BLOG

I believe this world is an amazing place. A place full of variety and wonder, and of delicious food. I also believe in new imaginative things and making something old and wonderful into something new and wonderful.

There are millions of different ways to express oneself and ones culture, and I feel that none are as wonderfully unique and easy to share with others, as food. Everyone eats, drinks, loves, shares, and learns. Along with that, I believe, that Everyone can cook.

I hope to share, with anyone who cares, sometimes miniature, and sometimes not, sometimes food, and sometimes more, versions of many global and delicious dishes. I wish for them to share with me also and to learn from each other.

Please feel free to comment criticize, and critique my menus, meals and meanderings. I hope to be posting pictures and recipes soon as well as whatever strikes my fancy.

I am not a professional cook, nor one trained in the arts, aside from my family experiences, but I hope that I can touch one life for the better in a small, tasty, way. I hope you enjoy and jump in with you're own recipes, stories and advice.

Thank you for reading and have a wonderful day.
