Inspirations: Chocolates and Raspberries

I have a little confession to make...I am a SUCKER for chocolates! :-D

That's why I can't help myself but to watch these Julia Child's videos that I found at PBS.com. 

There are two things that I love about these videos. First, Chefs Alice Medrich and Marcel Desaulniers, used chocolates (of course!) in their sweet creations. And, second, they shared a couple of unique cake decorating/presentation ideas.

Here are the links to the videos and some photos of the cakes that these wonderful chefs have baked:

Rasberry Ruffle Genoise Cake by Alice Medrich





White Chocolate Pattycake by Marcel Desaulniers





Aren't they all lovely?!?! I hope I can bake either of these someday. Or, at the very least, be inspired by the cake design/presentation in one of my spooning sweets sessions. :-D

Til our next sweet spooning! :-)
