ARISTA'S ARTISANAL BAKES

Clearly one of the eggs is off, and it is always easy to find that one. But now you are in doubt about the others. Are the rest about to go bad too? Are some of them safe to use, or even bake with? Yes. Sometimes if eggs have been on a supermarket shelf/ in your fridge too long, it can go bad. What you can do to test them, is fill a bowl with water. Place the eggs in the water one at a time. If it floats, it is off, and it can be thrown away. If it sinks to the bottom, it is good to use. Happy Baking!

Let me introduce myself. My name is Chrizaan. I am responsible for the marketing, and administration for ARISTA’S ARTISANAL Bakes. Also, I’m Arista’s younger sister. I do not have a hospitality/ culinary background. Instead, I have a degree in Animal Production. However, a large part of my degree program included managing/ running a business. So, believe me when I say, working in a cooking/ baking business is quite tough. Sometimes, when we have a really big order, I’ll jump in and help prepare the ingredients for Arista. I never knew how much really goes into the food/ baking preparation. And the working hours? It’s brutal. I’ve learnt a new respect for everyone working in the hospitality industry. So, from now on I’ll be a contributor on the blog as well. Do you have any experience in the hospitality industry, and if so, what is your honest opinion about what goes on behind the scenes?
