Academy Awards 2017: Red Carpet Cuisine Themed Oscar Menu

For the 2017 Academy Awards, I was commissioned to cater an annual Oscar party. No, not the Governors Ball but the coveted invite-only Jewels & Jammies 2017. A themed Oscar menu was planned to represent all nine Best Picture nominees. As with an good themed menu, puns were involved. Following pastry school, I’ve been hired here and there to create dessert bars […]

Adventures in Pastry Pop-Ups

My friends at the King of Pops agreed to my pitch of a holiday pastry pop-up while I was home in December. It would take place at their King of Crops Farm Stand at Ponce City Market, which sells local Georgia produced goods. The #BakingWithBeth concept was born following recent trips to Reno and London. Planning for […]

Pastries of Paris

Pastries of Paris

My dad and stepmom rented an apartment in Paris for the month of June, and since I’m just a short train ride away in London, visiting my family seemed like the perfect reason for a long weekend in the City of Light. That, and eating all the pastries of Paris. You know, for research. One […]

Macaron Making

Macaron Making

One of the greatest things about being home for the holidays (aside from seeing my family and friends, of course) is being at home in the kitchen with a KitchenAid mixer. Baking is my happy place. Ever since taking a technical macaron course in Paris, I’ve wanted to make some more macarons and knew this […]
