Hi, I'm Chef Mercedes. I'm a graduate of the French Culinary Institute/International Culinary Center's classic pastry arts program. Currently I do not work in the food industry so I use this blog to share my love of eating and passion for baking with the world. I hope you’ll enjoy what I have to share about baking and that I’ll inspire you to bake as well.

Reine de Saba (a.k.a. part two of the Chocolate I exam)
Part of our exam was to make a Reine de Saba (or Queen of Sheba) cake and decorate with with tiles made from the chocolate we used for the box. My cake collapsed a bit more than I would have liked. But it tasted wonderful--like a dense, fudgy, chocolate brownie--and I think the glaze looked really pretty and the tiles looked nice (albeit a little too thick).
