Another successful cupcake wars this quarter! We had many wonderful creations; each group chose unique themes to showcase their cupcake creations. Students in Bakery class learned all about cupcake decor and technique. They are all winners.




These students created busts of Malala Yousafzai and a WWI soldier for a class project. Great work!

Bakery students are working to decorate their cupcakes for cupcake wars competition tomorrow. Students chose their own recipe to make their cupcakes and frosting from scratch. Wish them luck with the judges tomorrow!
