Cooking or Baking With Imagination

Imagination basically is the ability of forming mental images, sensations or concepts within our mind. To turn that imagination into a reality you simply take the necessary actions to transform what you have imagined into something you can feel, smell, see, or taste.

When using your imagination to bake or cook it often requires you to step out of the norm to accomplish something new or just a little different.

• You use a different approach.
• You may have to improvise.
• You must be brave
• If at first you do not succeed you try again.

It will help if you have a reference point to draw from such as something similar you have baked or cooked before.

So why am I even bring this up?

Recipes are a dime a dozen, they are everywhere. I have even seen them on a poster board in a store bakery section.

We all have different taste so why would you want to use someone else’s recipe exactly the way they write it down to create something based on their taste?

When you bake or cook something; especially for someone else, do you say …

"Look what I made something unique and special for you."

or do you say …

"Look I copied so and so’s recipe for you."

Anyone can follow a recipe so be brave and use your own imagination to create something unique and special.

An associate of ours sent the following picture in. They used their imagination, their own recipe idea, and our Better Baker bowl makers.

Brownie bowls were created using the Cook’s Choice
3 and 5 inch Better Baker bowl makers

This is an excellent example of what we had in mind
in the creation of the Better Bakers

Use your imagination and create something special and unique.
