I am currently doing a course in hospitality and catering and in one part of it we are doing contemporary food. How to cook that has inspired me so much when choosing a dish to make. I especially liked the Valentine box she made and am hoping to make it next Friday (my teachers a bit picky so I’ll have to let her know in advance haha). Generally I just look watching the videos when I get a notification on YouTube. Can’t wait for next weeks video. I also would really like the mixer so I could do some more baking at home. Thanks!
