Lately I keep hearing about this darling new baking show on BBC2. Its not just any baking show - its baking made easy... To add to my intrigue, I was informed that she is an ex-fashion model turned baking queen. YES another skinny b****/baker on the scene! I figure the more people making cake the better... especially models, who need a bit of buttercream anyway.
So I did some research and found her website, along with her baking show online on BBC2.... I introduce to you: Lorraine Pascale, and she's officially my new baking/pastry mentor (after Chef Jacques Torres of course). From the first few seconds of watching her show, her spirit and charisma lulled me into the wonders of her easy short crust pastry and "I can't believe you made that" chocolate cake. She's genuine, delightful, encouraging, and makes any baking feat look like such fun that you forget you're baking and instead think you're creating a real chef d'oeuvre (which luckily happens to be edible and delicious).
Now to the big question... Where do I get some of her cake? Well she has two bakeries in London, and I took a visit to her location in Covent Garden. The cupcakes were almost as delightful as she... definite top ratings, with buttercream and sparkles on top.
