Art of Chocolate

Saturday, 14 August 2010


















Shira registered for Chef Judy Koh`s Chocolate Course organised by Masiling CC at Creative Culinaire. Interested too as I am new to Chocolate making.

Waited for her outside my estate & sent her daughter to Bukit Batok childcare centre en route. Reached Eng Hoon Mansion with no parking lot available. I went in to `chop' seats while she waited for a car to move off.

Attendance was good at the cooking & baking school, a media was there shooting photo & video. Chef Judy explained the different types of chocolates, tempering & demonstrated 3 recipes.

Chef Judy Koh gave up her career as a linguistic teacher to pursue her passion in food. She had worked in many countries learning from great chefs. Her class is very enjoyable as she is very passionate in sharing her knowledge.

The 3-hr session seemed too short but she had to prepare for her next hands-on cake baking class. I quickly bought her 2nd book `Pocket of Happiness' & got her autograph. Her 1st book is out of print.

We also had Brownie, Chocolate Pistacho & Pralet (signature cake) at her Caffe. I bought a 8-grain loaf, a slice of Passion Mango Cheesecake & Mirin Cake @ 10% off.
