Starting on a Journey



Over some thought about my future I have decided to become a Pastry Chef and of course my mother is dead set against it. So to try to convince her of letting me follow this dream I have decided to make all of the Sweets that come out in the hit anime Yumeiro Patissiere. Now as you may or may not now there are quite a lot of Sweets in this show and my family is not to big on sweets so i'm thinking of taking it slow and planing to make the sweets over a year long period making only 1 or 2 per week. Now because some of the ingredients are hard to find and because I will have to order some special equipment to make certain sweets ie... Madeleine molds, couverture, rose water... ect; the order in witch I make the sweets may vary to the line up in anime but I will do what I can to complete all the sweets.

For those of you who do not of Yumeiro Patissiere here is a brief description of this amazing Anime:

One day Amano Ichigo a 14 year old girl with no redeeming qualities other than her appetite for sweets goes to see her young and talented sister perform in a contest which she wins. A bit jealous of the attention her parents give her younger sister and feeling bad because of her own lack of talent, Ichigo leaves the competition and stumbles onto a Sweets fest. After trying several of the cakes she finds that one of them is remarkably similar to one that her late grandmother used to make. Looking for the maker of the she comes across the cakes maker Henri Lucas a well renowned Chef and Teacher at the famous St.Marie Academy for Pastry Chefs. After having a small chat with him she finds out that the cake is similar to her grandmothers due to the fact that her grandmother and Henri-sensei were both thought at St. Marie. Henri-sensei then makes her his own new original cake for her and is impressed with Ichigo's outstanding palette when she is able to distinguish the theme with only one bite. Henri-sensei then asks Ichigo to consider attending the Japanese branch of St. Marie Academy; Ichigo agrees almost instantly.

After arriving at the school she faces nothing but trouble. Due to Henri-sensei's scouting she is placed in the top class in her grade and in the number one group which consists of 3 highly skilled and cute guys known to the whole school as the Sweets Princes; all despite her not knowing how to do anything. Needless to say she fails miserably and after getting scolded by one of the Sweets Princes, Kashino Makoto, she nearly quits then and there but deciding to give it another go; she goes back to the practice room and begins self training. it is then that a small fairy like creature known as a Sweet Spirit called Vanilla. With the help of Vanilla she manages to make the cake she originally messed up. With Vanilla along side her as well as the help of the Sweets Princes Ichigo improves by the day and eventually wins the Cake Grand Pre and wins the honor of studying in Paris at the main campus. 

The Anime continues in season two Yumeiro Patissiere Professional. Two years after the Cake Grand Pre Ichigo returns to Japan to face an all new challenge how to crate and run a pastry shop.
