B. Background of the Study
In Western culture, dessert is a course that typically comes at the end of a meal, usually consisting of sweet food. The word comes from the French language as “dessert” and this from Old French “desservir” which means “to clear the table” and “to serve”. Common desserts include cakes, cookies, ice-cream, and candies. Fruit may also be eaten with the dessert. The word dessert is most commonly used for this course in U.S., Canada, Australia, and Ireland, while sweet, pudding or afters may be alternative terms used in the UK and some other countries. In Russia, breakfast foods such as Bliny, Oladi, and Syrniki served with honey and jam are also popular as desserts. In England, the term pudding might be used among the Upper and Upper-middle classes, with dessert only used if the course consists of fruit. A buffet is a system of serving meals in which food is placed in a public area where the diners generally serve themselves.
In Zamboanga City, food establishment is one of the great contributions in helping with the development of the city. ”Eat All You Can” restaurants are in line with these food establishments that are now trending everywhere in town.

Analysis of the Competitors
There is always a competition in every business. The proponents of the business should know who their competitors are. This competition is the reason why establishments strive hard to do their best in their every works, and giving their best to achieve positive results in the business industry. This competition helps to empower every person involved in the business to strive hard in work. The major competitors of Desserts Buffet Restaurant are the famous local food establishments that cater desserts as part of their menu, namely: Chinito’s Bar and Resto, Myrna’s Bakeshop, Lantaka Restaurant, and many more. These competitors offer delicious desserts that the local residents of Zamboanga City are buying. These competitors also offer different kinds of main course food, and that is our proposed business differs from these competitors. The Desserts Buffet Restaurant does not cater rice and viands, and only desserts. In this case, the Desserts Buffet Restaurant would be the first in the city.
Competitive Strengths The Desserts Buffet Restaurant will have six (6) varieties of Cold/Frozen desserts and four (4) varieties of Baked Desserts. Cold/Frozen desserts would include fruit flavored Ice Cream, vegetable and fruit flavored refrigerated Cakes, the usual Fruit Salad, Sylvanna, Chocolate Mousse and Knicker Bucker with Vegetable Flavored Ice Cream on top. Baked Desserts will be Vegetable Battered Cakes, Fruit Flavored Cream Puffs, Cup Cakes with the varieties of popular flavors. The restaurant’s kitchen staffs will be the one to prepare all the desserts to serve to the guests. The ambiance of the restaurant would look exciting because of the bright color paintings and sketches of desserts on the wall In addition to these, Desserts Buffet Restaurant will serve Fruit Flavored Soda Waters. This would also benefit the health - conscious customers.
Distinctive Features Desserts Buffet Restaurant offers different varieties of desserts that some of its competitors have offered. Since the main menu of the business is desserts, the proponents made an idea of adding twist to the desserts’ flavorings and lessen the unnecessary tastes to suit to the taste of the guests. Also, different promos will be given to attract the customers and to revisit the restaurant. With its flavorful desserts and ambiance, it will truly allure people’s tastes.

Sylvannas

Cooking Procedure: * Preheat oven to 300F. Grease and flour cookie sheet or use a good quality wax paper. Grind cashew nuts finely in a food processor with all-purpose flour. But if you don’t have you can do it manually with mortar and pestle as what I did. Sieve crushed cashew nuts and set aside. Sift all-purpose flour in a separate bowl and set aside as well. Combine egg whites and cream of tartar in a mixing bowl with wire whip attachment. Mix at medium speed for 1 minute while gradually adding the caster sugar. Switch the speed and add the almond extract, continue beating the egg whites until stiff peaks are formed and glossy

* Fold in flour and cashew nuts together over a sieve and gradually cut and fold until well blended. Put mixture into piping bag and snip the end with a scissor. Pipe meringue onto the prepared cookie sheet lined with wax paper. To yield the same size of meringue wafer make a circle pattern using any size of round shape you got and trace it on the wax paper for an even outline. In this procedure I used a 2 inch cookie cutter, the size is just perfect for me.

* Pipe meringue evenly onto the sheet, this recipe makes 24 wafers; yields a dozen of decadent sylvana. Bake the meringue in the center of the oven for 25 minutes or until lightly brown. Let it cool completely before transferring to a wire rack to prevent the wafers from cracking. Meringue wafers are fragile when it’s hot and very easy to peel off when it’s completely cooled.

* Prepare icing while waiting for the meringue wafer to cool down. Dissolve sugar in milk, then cream butter until pale in color. Add sugar-milk solution slowly while beating continuously until smooth. Chill the butter mixture while preparing for the coating mixture. In a bowl crumble leftover slice of sponge cake, mamon or any plain yellow cake. In this recipe I’m using one of my Torta Mamon Cebuano that I made earlier. Crumble the cake finely and add the finely ground cashew nuts and mix well, then set aside.

* To prepare the other coating mixture mix finely ground cashew nuts and add the bread crumbs in a separate bowl and mix well, then set aside. If you don’t have bread crumbs that would be fine ‘coz it’s just an extender (cashews are expensive why not add a cheaper extender, that doesn’t compromise the taste anyway).

To assemble the Sylvanas : Stir chilled butter lightly to soften and using a brush, brush icing on a meringue wafer and sandwich with another meringue wafer. Hence, that most of Sylvanas recipe procedures I’ve seen are sandwiched in reverse “flat-side-out”. I don’t really know why it has to be done like that but I guess to have a crunchy Sylvanas exterior and a soft and gooey interior. But I find it too buttery ‘coz I have to fill the center with lots of butter to make a flat and even sides, and I don’t like it, i want a woopie sandwich look.

Chocolate Mousse

Directions:

* Place the chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pan of gently simmering water (don't let the bowl touch the water). Stir until melted. Remove bowl from heat and set aside to cool slightly. * Place eggs and sugar in a large bowl and beat with electric beaters for 5 minutes, or until mixture is pale, thick and doubled in volume. Fold in cooled chocolate and cocoa powder until combined. * In a separate bowl, whip cream until thickened (be careful not to over-beat). Use a large metal spoon to carefully fold the cream into the chocolate mixture, trying to keep the mixture as light as possible. Spoon into 6 serving glasses and chill in fridge for at least 1 hour. Remove from fridge 15 minutes before serving, then top with extra whipped cream and grated chocolate to serve.

Add your favourite spirit. To keep it French, go for Cognac (or another quality brandy) or Grand Marnier, adding 1 tablespoon to the melting chocolate. For a flavour twist, add a tablespoon of vanilla extract to the chocolate as it melts. Chocolate and coffee make a great pairing, so try adding two tablespoons of prepared strong black coffee to the chocolate when melting. For a cool treat, serve the mousse as a semifreddo - freeze for about 3 hours (but don't freeze solid).

Cream Puffs

Directions: * Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Fit 1 large pastry bag (or a plastic freezer bag with 1/2-inch cut from one bottom corner) with plain 1/2-inch tip. * Bring milk, butter, 1 tsp. sugar, salt, and 1/2 cup water to a boil in a medium sauce- pan over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Add flour all at once; reduce heat to medium-low. Stir vigorously with a wooden spoon until a dough forms and pulls away from sides of pan, 1–2 minutes. Continue beating vigorously until a thin dry film forms on bottom and sides of pot, about 1 minute. Transfer to a bowl. * Add 1 egg and stir vigorously with wooden spoon until egg is incorporated and dough looks dry again, about 2 minutes. Repeat with 4 more eggs, adding one at a time and stirring vigorously to incorporate before adding the next. Dough should be smooth, shiny, and thickened. * Spoon dough into prepared pastry bag; pipe out 2 1/2-inch-diameter rounds on pre- pared sheets, leaving 2 inches between rounds. DO AHEAD: Freeze the piped dough rounds on the baking sheets, then transfer to resealable plastic bags and freeze for up to 1 month. Place on parchment paper-lined baking sheets, spacing apart (do not defrost) before continuing with recipe. * Arrange racks in upper and middle thirds of oven and preheat to 450°. Whisk remaining egg with 2 tsp. water and brush dough rounds all over with egg wash. * Transfer baking sheets to oven; turn oven off. After 10 minutes, heat oven to 350° and bake for 10 minutes. Rotate pans front to back and top to bottom; continue baking until deep golden brown all over, about 10 minutes longer (puffs will deflate if removed from oven before fully baked). Transfer puffs to a wire rack and let cool completely. * Using a serrated knife, gently slice the top quarter off each puff; transfer tops to a plate. With your finger, gently push down the soft film of cooked dough inside each puff. * Prepare a second pastry bag (or freezer bag) with 1/2-inch open-star tip. Beat heavy cream and remaining 2 Tbsp. sugar in a large bowl until soft peaks form. Spoon whipped cream into prepared pastry bag. Fill each puff with cream, finishing with a generous ring of cream on top. Dust tops of cream puffs with powdered sugar; place atop puffs.

Oreo Cupcakes and Cream Frosting

Directions: 1. Pre-heat your oven to 350 degrees.

2. Line two cupcake pans with 18 paper liners. In a large bowl, combine chopped bittersweet chocolate, cocoa powder, and 3/4 cup hot water. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and all of the chocolate has melted.Place this mixture in the refrigerator to chill for about 20 minutes.

3. In a large bowl combine flour, sugar, salt, and baking soda. When the chocolate mixture has cooled, whisk in 6 tablespoons vegetable oil, 2 large eggs, 2 teaspoons vinegar, and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract.

4. Combine the dry ingredients with the wet and whisk until all of the ingredients are incorporated together.

5. Place an Oreo cookie on the bottom of each cupcake liner. Pour batter over each cookie and fill each cupcake liner about 3/4 of the way full. You should get about 18 cupcakes.

6. Bake for 17-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack.

7. While the cupcakes are baking, prepare the frosting. In a small sauce pan combine 5 tablespoons flour with 1 cup cold milk. I used 1%. Stir and whisk the mixture constantly over medium low heat until it becomes really thick.

8. Place this mixture in the refrigerator or freezer for about 10 minutes so that it cools completely.

9. When the flour/milk mixture has cooled completely, cream together butter and sugar with your mixer. When the sugar is well incorporated into the butter, add in vanilla and mix for 30 seconds longer.

10. Add in the thickened milk/flour mixture and mix on low for about 30 seconds. Then turn the mixer to high and mix for about 3 minutes, or until the frosting is light and fluffy, much like whipped cream.

11. If the consistency isn’t like whipped cream, keep mixing! Add in 1 cup crushed Oreos and mix for about 30 seconds.

12. To frost the cupcakes, place the frosting in a ziplock bag, snip the corner, and pipe frosting onto each cooled cupcake. Top with an additional Oreo for garnish.

Banana Cupcakes with Vanilla Pastry Cream

Directions:
To Make the Banana Cupcakes:
1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line two 12-cup cupcake pans with paper liners.

2. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together into a large bowl and set aside.

3. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and shortening together on medium speed until creamy, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the sugar and vanilla and beat on medium speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Scrape down the bowl, add the eggs, and beat until just combined. Scrape down the bowl again and add the bananas. Beat until just combined. Turn the mixer to low. Add the flour mixture, alternating with the buttermilk, in three additions, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Scrape down the bowl, then mix on low speed for a few more seconds.

4. Fill the cupcake liners about three-quarters full. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, rotating the pans halfway through the baking time, until a toothpick inserted in the center of a cupcake comes out clean. Transfer the pans to a wire rack and let cool for 20 minutes. Remove the cupcakes from the pans and place them on the rack to cool completely.

To Make the Vanilla Pastry Cream:
1. Set a fine-mesh sieve over a medium bowl.

2. In a medium saucepan, bring the half-and-half to a simmer and keep warm.

3. In a medium bowl, whisk the egg yolks, sugar, cornstarch, and salt together until the mixture is pale, about 1 minute. Whisk half of the warm half-and-half into the egg yolk mixture, then pour that mixture into the remaining half-and-half in the saucepan and cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until thickened, about 6 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the vanilla. Strain the pastry cream through the sieve and press a piece of plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the cream to prevent a skin from forming. Put in the refrigerator for about 1 hour, or until chilled.

To Assemble the Cupcakes:
If you have a pastry bag, fit the bag with a large tip, fill the bag with the pastry cream, and pipe out enough pastry cream to cover each cupcake.

If you do not have a pastry bag, use an ice cream scoop with a release mechanism to scoop the pastry cream and dispense it onto the top of the cupcake.

You can also use an offset spatula to frost the cupcakes. Top with a single slice of fresh banana or a dried banana chip.

Marketing Plan

...My Marketing Plan Proposal BUSN319 Devry University Company Description I have chosen to startup a company where people can come eat breakfast, as much as they desire, and at any time of the day. My future plans involve owning and running my own self-sufficient buffet style restaurant that is like no other. This is really going to make breakfast the most important part of everyone’s day at any time of the day they can make it. Some ideas within my range of restaurant expertise for the breakfast buffet I have would start with the latest and greatest in restaurant technology from the POS system on the wall that is large and a touch screen where customers can input their own order into. For customers to pay their bill I would use bolt-to-the table iPads for bill paying quickness and without the worry of someone stealing their identity while taking up a credit card. Another ideal I would have is within the buffet equipment. People are always worried about germs and bacteria these days therefore instead of the old fashioned way of spooning sauces on to a plate I would use technologically savvy equipment that leaves out the bacteria, all you would have to do is put your plate under it and it would come out by motion sense. I would use electronic waffle and pancake cookers so that people can have those on demand and as fresh as they can be. One last quick idea I have is an open kitchen where customers can see how clean and tidy it is also they can have the interaction...

Ovation Brands Analysis Part 1

...freshly made macaroni and cheese from grandma’s pot, or a masterfully crafted risotto from a world famous chef, it cannot be denied that food is an important part of our culture. Companies such as Ovations Brands (known as Buffets Inc. until recently) have seen this truth and have seized the opportunity to make a living from this fact. Buffets Inc. was established in 1983 as Old Country Buffet according to their website. However due to several oversights in their business plans they have had trouble in years of late. In order to fully explain what the problem is, first one must be shown the specifics of the company in question. So this essay aims to set the groundwork by fully describing the internal environment of the company and then the external environment. In this situation we will be only referring to the components involved in the base level of the company rather than the management and corporate levels. Firstly, the most basic of internal components; the inputs. Some of the key inputs of Ovation Brands include uneducated labor, building space, and of course large amounts of food. There are of course other things that could be included in this list such as the grills and coolers and all the technical things needed to actually run a restaurant. Next in line are the Products the company produces. Ovations brands provide a dining experience for guests of all ages.

Restaurant Review

...Review of China Buffet Restaurant I am a food lover, and I enjoyed eating in a Chinese restaurant. I tried different restaurants in our place, but what interests me most is the China Buffet Restaurant. China Buffet is located at Madison Avenue at the heart of Mankato, one of the biggest cities in Minnesota. The restaurant has a seating capacity of approximately 100 people. They have several food stations. Although the name China Buffet speaks for itself, their food stations consist of American, Italian, and Japanese food. The owner purposely includes a variety of food because of competition. I enjoyed eating at China Buffet because of its affordability, delicious food, and the beautiful setting. The price of their buffet is $10 per person, and it includes beverages. There are a variety of salads in their salad station: fruit, vegetable, and seafood. Their main meal is composed of chicken, pork, beef, and fish. For dessert, they serve ice cream, cookies, and different kinds of cakes. For their beverages, they serve soda, milk, juice, and chocolate milk, but tea is my favorite. The food is excellent so it’s well worth the price. China Buffet’s food is excellent and healthy. They have food stations for meat lovers and vegetarians. Their newly-opened sushi and hibachi bar is the restaurant’s crowning glory. Sushi and California maki is my starter with matching wasabi sauce. I tried their hibachi too, but it fills me up right away. The seafood station is...
