Forget what they say about not playing with food - or knives. Certified Executive Chef Ray Duey does both, and the results are unexpected. A turnip turns into a daisy, an eggplant into a leaf, a cantaloupe into a star and a tomato into a rose. This Far Eastern culinary art is spreading from cruise ships to hotels, country clubs, restaurants and homes.

"Why should you pay for a florist when your food can speak for itself?" Ray Duey, the high-profile, in-demand culinary artist is always on the move. Despite never having artistic inclinations as a child, Duey has risen to become one of the premier culinary artists in the US.  He has been featured on the Food Network, invited to create a piece for the White House and is a certified chef through the American Culinary Federation.

Duey, a certified executive chef and member of ACF California Capital Chefs Association, has spent the last two decades developing his skill and creating fruit-and-vegetable carvings for weddings, events, classes and seminars. In 2004, he opened Chef Ray Presents, where he teaches the specialized art form to a wide variety of professionals across the United States. Duey has received numerous awards in national and international competitions. In addition, he is also corporate executive chef at Buffet Euro, San Francisco, CA.

Chef Ray Duey picks up where "The Basics" left off with teaching more advanced carving techniques. He gives in depth instruction on how to create:
  • Apple Turtles
  • Turkeys
  • Swans and Butterflies
  • Garnishes made of Mushrooms
  • Zucchini and Tomatos
  • Fennel Cala Lilies
  • Potato Roses
  • Thai Honeydew Techniques
  • Japanese Watermelon Lantern
  • Honeydew Roses
  • Thai Praline Leaves

...all resulting in an impressive centerpiece using most of the items carved in this program. 

REVIEW: The Midwest Book Review
The Dare to Cook: Food Carving Artistry series is a hands-on, how-to guide to adding an exceptional level of visual beauty to one's culinary creations. Chef Ray Duey hosts all three of these informative volumes packed with tips, tricks, and techniques that food artists of all backgrounds will find invaluable, whether creating a simple, symmetrical layout or an elaborate carving.

All three programs are simply beautiful to watch, and highly recommended for the enjoyment of gourmets and connoisseurs as well as amateur and professional food stylists.

The series consists of "The Basics" covering standard tools and how to handle them as well as vegetable and fruit creations like Banana Dolphin or Pear Porcupine; "Advanced Techniques" with more in-depth instructions and sample creations such as Potato Roses and Japanese Watermelon Lantern; and "Ultimate Creations" packed with nimble-fingered expertise in crafting beautiful items such as Papya Vase, Layered Turnip, and Reversed Watermelon. All three programs of this exceptional series are also available in Blu-Ray and a downloaded version!

Very nice!
I purchased this clutch purse for date nights with my husband. I think it is very chic. I was surprised by the room it had. It will hold my cell phone, lipstick and my slim wallet. I may order another one.

Great Bag
Color: Obsidian Black
This is by far one of the best handbags/purses I have bought off Amazon. it is practical, elegant, fun and bonus that you can easily have the shoulder strap attached to the bag if you want to use it, or you can easily put it inside and still have room for a wallet and phone. Sometime you want a strap, sometimes you don't and something you just don't know.....with this purse, you can have it anyway, anytime. Thanks Midwest Money Saving Mommas for recommending this cute purse. Bring on girls weekend!

Fits everything!
Color: Gilded Gold, Color: Gilded Gold
Beautiful clutch, good size. It fit my phone, make up, keys without a problem. It did smell very bad in the inside though. I didn’t realize it before hand since I opened it on my way to my event. Every time I’d open it and the smell could linger.
