As Captain Hook said, "We'll cook a cake quite large and fill each layer in between with icing mixed with poison until it turns a tempting green."

I cook the way I paint. I want all of my baking to be rich and decadent, brightly colored and glittering so that you sparkle after you eat it. I like to make things that people find delicious and watch them enjoy it.

Mayans thought that cacao held magical powers. Obviously I am completely obsessed with Joanne Harris’ Chocolat and the movie adaptation that was made after.
