I'm working on a few new desserts that I have been experimenting with... Nothing like R&D (lol)!
February 22
Catching up and networking with some of my peers. With the new year comes fresh ideas and creative influences.
I've been a senior culinarian for more than twenty years. I became facinated with pastry design and fabrication about ten years ago. I have since implemented the craft into my offering as a chef and I continue to grow and learn.
I enter competitions :

I consider my specialty to be:
Individual small cakes (patisserie), boulanger, recipe formulation, chocolatier,
Judging by your communiques you appear to be so full of life and energy about the craft (smiling). Having been in this industry for so long it's endearing to meet someone who genuinely exudes that kind of sincerity.

The laws across the nation are changing so quickly I can barely keep up, but a dear contact with the Dept. of Agriculture tries to email every time there is legislative action. Here is the link for Washington state http://cookingwithdenay.com/washington/

Darel - thank you for the note. I've never seen vanilla from Honduras - very interesting. They must produce a very small amount. Tahitian vanilla is characterized as being very fruity and floral, but is also very expensive as it is in such demand. Feel free to call me to discuss further, 800-525-7873.
