Objectives
Students will leave with basic cooking skills and knowledge about the importance of preheating the oven, accurately following a recipe, and measuring ingredients as well as basic decorating techniques. Students will show their progress by on average missing no more than one question each on the “Concepts Test” and by producing their own batch of moist and delicious cupcakes that are carefully and professionally decorated.
