ICE Students Compete in Martha Stewart Pie Show

Eight students from ICE鈥檚 Pastry & Baking Career Program took their culinary skills to the small screen today when they put their homemade pies on display for Martha Stewart鈥檚 Pie Show.

The students joined fellow audience members of the show in presenting their pies to a panel of judges for tasting, with the winner鈥檚 pie being featured in an upcoming segment of The Martha Stewart Show. I had the chance to catch up with ICE's Ana Borrero as she prepared her Chocolate Praline Pie (pictured above) yesterday at ICE. Ana鈥檚 pie consisted of a hazelnut shortbread crust filled with a creamy mixture of praline paste, cream cheese and whipped cream. She topped off her sweet confection with chocolate ganache and a garnish of toasted hazelnuts.
