My very first Daring Bakers Challenge! Although I’m really thrill about this month’s challenge, Chocolate Éclairs, I’m a little disappointed at myself. As you can tell by my disappointing picture taking skills and arrangement of the eclairs, these were not made with 100% love and devotion =( I really wanted to take the time to perfect my eclairs, but this month and especially this week has been crazy. I was up for 20 hours on Friday! I’m hoping I’ll be able to focus more on next month’s challenge.
