peanut brittle when I have market. I received good compliments for my peanut
brittle and I really appreciate that.

of sugar syrup, peanut, baking soda to the cookie sheet don’t stir leave it
alone, let the brittle mixture crawl itself. That is the secret of airy and crunchy peanut brittle.

I just tried a Chicken egg rolls partner for my noodles and I'm really happy with the combination. Usually Noodles is partnered with meat egg rolls but now I have different partner menu and I'm happy with it.
I baked Potato Onion Bread. I
think potato and onion is a great combination of flavor for my bread. It’s my
first time to bake this bread but it came out soft, airy and crusty in the
outside and smells good. Usually when baked bread or cupcakes I taste it first.
Sometimes one of my friends ordered 24 pieces cupcakes and I delivered 23 pcs and told her I ate 1 pc and you pay dollar less. I want to make sure my
baked goods are delicious and taste good. If it don’t taste good I will re-do that baked
goods. You noticed, I have potato onion breads and the other bread was half eaten by me for taste test. Funny, my taste test required a lot of tasting and consumed too much
that’s why I gained weight.

I just joined Jim Wells Farmers Market year 2015, as I remembered. Joining Jim Wells Farmers Market was my first time to sell my baked goods the manager at Jim Wells Farmers Market, Ms. Elaine was really nice to me even I only have small table full of baked goods she always took picture of my baked goods for sale, maybe Ms. Elain really know I worked hard for my baked goods.
On my part joining farmers market selling my baked goods was a gamble sometimes, a HIT or a MISS when it’s hit, it’s worth the effort to be busy Friday all day just to prepare all my baking stuff, go to bed at 12 midnight then set an alarm at 3:00am to bake and package all the stuff. It’s my routine when I’m preparing for farmers market.
I don’t advertise much coz I only have enough baked goods just to fill up my 5 ft. table. When I sell at Jim Wells Farmers Market, I just depend on Ms. Elaine’s advertisement, taking picture of my baked goods.
I still participate Farmers Market, I know next time I will participate market I will have more SALES, be optimistic. yey!!!
I would like to share my
experience in baking of my delicious baked goods. I will start from all ingredients
needed for one recipe, it’s easy. Next, will be the mixing all the ingredients and
create a perfect batter for your perfect baked goods and then you bake.
The most important part of baking
that you really need to be patient is the waiting time of cooling your baked goods.
These banana breads it took awhile before it’s totally cool so that the bread
will not be stale.
It took a lot of practice to
baked a perfect banana cake and that’s what I’m doing always. Practice,
practice and more practice so that I can create good food, quality baked goods.
