From the TAS Faculty – Kim Tregoning

As part of the ‘Food for Special Occasions’ unit of work this term, Year 9 Food Technology students worked on designing and planning a celebration cake of their choice. The appeal of the cake in terms of the design elements used and decorations added, was a major consideration.

Skills learnt included making buttercream, crumb coating a cake and using different colouring and piping methods. Fondant was also used to create some of the cake features. 

The students were commended on their final results.
