I have recently begun working for one of my French Pastry School classmates at her new bakery, le Flour: Bake Shop and Market, in Edison Park, Chicago. I adore working for her because of the relaxed and creative environment, colorful decor, and emphasis on quality ingredients and classy presentation. Above is a picture of the pastry case with chalkboards designed by myself and a mural/sign that I painted on one wall of the bakery. The faux finish was done by the owner, Nicole, and the centerpiece is a spruced up iron grate that she found in an antique shop.
The picture above is a carrot cake with cream cheese frosting that I made at le Flour. It's nothing unusually special in presentation (everything we make is rustic but delicious looking), but I like the monochromatics of the photo.
The above photos are of some gumpaste disks that I painted with our logo in food coloring for the grand opening on Saturday. The cupcakes are yellow cake with vanilla buttercream. Nicole makes her buttercream with vanilla paste so you can see little flecks of vanilla bean.
