International

International <3


          Starting the middle of March, I have been in International for Baking and Pastry arts. I could not be happier with all that I have learned. It honestly feels like I have traveled the world. But it makes sense right? This industry allows us to speak a language of food, you can literally communicate with anyone. It is its own world, food is a necessity, a way to sustain life. How lucky are we, that we can speak to anyone with a plate of love and passion? To wake up everyday, and do something we love? 

          The first week of International, we entered the world of Austria and prepared a traditional Sacher torte. It dates back all the way 1832. How crazy is that? The fact that we still prepare a torte that is almost 200 years old, just infinitely blows my mind. Franz Sacher, was only 16 years old and created this torte last minute for Prince Clemens Lothar Wensel Metternich. Talk about pressure?


International has expanded my horizon of the Baking and Pastry world, and I couldn't be happier <3


Love always,
Halie :]
