#like pineapple upside down cake and kugel

(Otaku Anon) Woah, you’re an award winning baker? That’s so epic piggy! :D What kind of things do you bake and do you have pictures of the things you’ve made that you’re comfortable with showing us?

Nothing like national contests or anything, but I do have dozens of A-ribbons, some best in shows, judges awards, and a 4-H trophy for my efforts. I also won a red ribbon award- that's how I was pre-entered into the Michigan State Fair for free (normally like a $10 entry fee for 10 entries) I'm also the reason my county's state fair has updated since it hadn't been since the 90s. I was a temp on the committee and was the youngest member, after Onyx, one of the committee's assistant dog. I've also won awards for non-baking cooking and cake decorating. Yum.

Obvious food warning under the cut

During 2019 I rewatched [some of] Sagwa and as soon as I watched the mooncake ep I immediately texted my mom saying I had ideas for fair. I did not have a press so they're not elegant, but they have just the same amount of delicious taste to em. I had to actually make the golden syrup from scratch since the lady at the place we went to gave us the wrong thing. Th filling is adzuki bean! It's soooo yummy.

I'm a huge bitch when it comes to plating. I always make sure the plate has something in theme with the food and looks heavenly. This is dark chocolate and strawberry 5-ingredient fudge. Seriously it's only 5 ingredients. I actually made these a DAY before judging since my gummy bears didn't congeal right due to the humidity and I went to bed dejected. My mom literally came in my room with her tablet with a small list of ideas she thought of because she couldn't sleep knowing I didn't have something. I need to make this again.

What I'm known best for- macarons! I've made at least 10 different flavours, but I'm best known for my watermelon ones- these are the ones I got the trophy and Red Ribbon Award for actually. The top shell is pink, and the bottom shell is lime green (so I had to make two batches) topped with flavourless non-intruding black candy gel for the seeds. I always bring extra "scrappy" versions of the food to offer the clerks since they don't get to taste it and even he was enamored.

[Not pictured: the shaved chocolate that topped it before judging]

This is a vanilla roll cake with strawberry preserve and whipped topping filling. The strawberries on the sides are dipped in apple jelly! I loooove apple jelly strawberries. Sorry the quality of this pic is so low, it was really dark in the room.

I have a lot more pics at home of my foods, but I've made vegan fruit curry, vegan bean-based Indian curry, beet salad, apricot ricotta cookies, apple dumpling donuts, non-fried doughnuts, a strawberry chocolate mousse cake that weighed like 5 pounds (ABSOLUTELY SNUBBED BTW), strawberry rhubarb crisp, apple cranberry pie, pirogi, vegetarian chili, listen I don't have my recipe book with me but there's a lot.
