Day 6 - Cupcakes (intermediate)- Ariela
We started the day off by splitting into three groups for our three cupcakes: humming bird, strawberry, and chocolate. Since we only had one set of pans we had to take turns making the cake. while the first group was making the cake, the rest of us were working on the frosting. We had buttercream frosting and cream cheese frosting. We started off by collecting all of our ingrediants and then began to make the frosting in the mixers.

once the group was finished making their batter, they began scooping onto the pan and put them in the oven for 20 minutes. While their cakes where in the oven, the rest of us began to collect the ingrediants fro our batter. once we had our ingrediants, we began to mix the batter. we made sure to be cleaning our statioss as we were baking. Once our batter was done, the other groups cakes were finshed so we were able to wadh the pans and start scoopin our batter into the pan. while our cakes were in the oven, we all began to clean the kitchen and take a break. when they wer eout of the oven we took them out to cool off.

We all got to practice frosting and decorating our cupcakes. we gave cupcakes to some teachers who wanted to try and packed the rest up and brought it to the high school to give away.
