Our Year 9 Food Technology students recently enjoyed a deliciously creative experience during the \u2018Baked by Sof\u2019 Cupcake & Cookie School Workshop. Led by ex-student and baking talent Sofia Sgroi, the workshop offered a hands-on look into the world of baking and cake decorating.<\/span><\/p>\n

The session began with a live demonstration on how to make light and fluffy vanilla buttercream from scratch. They were then introduced to the art of colouring buttercream using gel-based dyes and experimented with a variety of piping techniques to create swirls, stars, and rosettes. A few lucky students even had the chance to try piping a cupcake themselves!<\/span><\/p>\n

In the second half of the session, the focus shifted to fondant decorating. Students were guided through rolling, cutting, and embossing fondant to design two pre-baked cookies. Each student was provided with tools, fondant, and packaging to bring their creations to life and take them home.<\/span><\/p>\n

This workshop not only gave students a fun and memorable experience, but also equipped them with real-world decorating skills they will apply in their upcoming assessment task, where they will be designing and creating a custom cake for a special event.<\/span><\/p>\n

A huge thank you to Sofia for her time, energy and generosity in sharing her skills \u2014 and inspiring the next generation of creative bakers!<\/span><\/p>\n
