Making desserts on TV

Being interviewed on TV happened to me numerous times, primarily about digital media and social media stuff. But this is my first time to do a live demo making desserts on TV. It feels a bit scary. Bringing my brand on live television and making it myself. I made a local version of an Asian dessert called Cendol. Its a green bean based dessert which resembles halo-halo in our country. Its mostly composed of sweetened fruits in season on a bowl of crushed ice with milk and a little sugar. The interviewer was a friend, broadcaster Alfie Tulagan of GMA TV 10, and his ever- talented cameraman. The ingredients were : 1. Cendol 2. Sweet Potato 3. Langka/ Jackfruit 4. Red beans 5. Crushed ice 6. Fresh milk 7. Sugar (optional) Will upload the video on my Youtube Channel .
