Finally I recieved the DVD I ordered on Amazon. One dvd by James Parker, one from Chef Ray Duey and three dvd tutorials by Pam Maneeratana.
Of course the very first one I started watching was James Parker because he is my hero. Undoubtedly he is a perfect showman and good entreprenuer. I like his way of promoting the art of fruit and vegetable carving. "Basic Fruit & Vegetable Carving" is more than just a tutorial. This is a professional movie about the whole process of making edible arrangements from buying fruits to eating the centerpieces.
Recommended! Accurate centerpieces, skilled master, high quality movie at the good price. Makes impression "Every one can do that". |
Chef Ray teaches simple centerpieces as well as the advanced melon carving techniques. I have learned some new things from his tutorial "Fruit & Vegetable Sculpting". But one thing I don't like about the movie is that the author carves in hurry. Chef Ray cuts quickly and often ruines the pattern. This is the only 'minus'. In total the dvd tutorial is an INFORMATIVE course with a HUGE number of centerpices, GOOD VALUE, a must to watch!
Pam Maneeratana shows fruit carving techniques in details. Explains much, carves slowly to let us understand the idea and the trick. Good tutorials for EAGER fruit carvers. Pam is a perfect teacher!
These dvd sound really good.
