HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY EVERYONE!

Team Sugar Philly actually was able to offer a dessert making class at the wonderful COOK kitchen started by Audrey Claire. The kitchen (and obviously the people) were amazing not to mention the beautiful windows to see people passing by, great collection of cooking books on the shelves, and the best little pantry of kitchen essentials (we miss you glass milk carton!). But what is a perfect setting without the perfect star. Chef Tang was like a celebrity chef blazing through 3 of our recipes and a few of our secrets while sharing a few stories. Most importantly though we hope everyone had a good time, learned something new, and got a little taste of heaven.

Check out a little bit of the fun:

We aren’t the only ones that teach at COOK though! They have amazing classes and some sell out quick. Their January schedule just got released so check out more classes from COOK here.

We forgot to post the event on our blog, but the 2nd Annual Sugar High Showdown with Penn Gastronomy went down last weekend before the Thanksgiving break.  This time all three of us were there to help out with the judging.  It’s a hard job, but someone has to taste all the desserts and figure out how they taste! It was a great event and we had a great time. Everyone did a great job again this year.  We can already tell that it’s going to get harder and harder each year to choose the winners.  This year it went to: Judge’s Choice: Indian Spiced Sticky Toffee Pudding, Kimberly Schreiber Audience Favorite: Chai Tres Leches Cake with Almond Brittle; Crystal Lu For those that missed the event, check out the food porn here!

Pumpkin Custard with Candied Pecan and Oats with Torched Marshmallow (YUM!)

Well we are going to the Vendy’s again!!! But this time we aren’t competing but just spectating. It’s September and the New York City Vendy’s has finally “rolled” in. It’s this weekend on Governor’s Island! All three of us will be attending to see what the Big Apple trucks can cook up and see some of our other food truck friends. Of course, if anyone wants to join us, definitely feel free to! We’d love to meet up and try some food and desserts with you! We’ll be the Philly team and represent our city of brotherly love! See you there!

Well folks, the show is finally going to air the Philly episode!  If you can, tune in on Friday to the Food Network’s Sugar High at 10:30 PM.  If you can’t (I know Friday nights you all can be out and about), then don’t worry.  You can catch it at 1:30 AM or wait until Sunday at 6 PM.  Some of us are camera shy, but you’ll see our dear Chef Tang front and center.  Let us know what you think of the episode!

BUT we don’t want to celebrate alone! For people who don’t have plans yet on Friday, come watch the episode with us!  We’ll be joining our other amazing Philly dessert folks Brown Betty and Rim Cafe to watch the episode live.  We would love to see any of our good friends there and I know we’ll have a good time.  Just come on down to Rim Cafe at 1172 South 9th Street (at the corner of 9th & Federal) around 10:00 PM.  We’ll get situated and even try to give ya’ll some desserts! And for those with bigger appetites, I’m totally up for walking a block to Pat’s cheesesteaks. See you there! =)

Everybody ready for school, work, and the chaos of life?

We certainly aren’t!  Haha

Ohh well, we will live and move on.  Enjoy this picture of our milk and honey macaron!

Time to sleep for me!  Until tomorrow, laters!
