In Food Studies 7 and 8 students already have the basic background so I really like Food Studies 9 to be all about creating – providing them with the end result and having them think through the process to create that desired result. So long as they are able to explain their process and meet the criteria there are few limitations put on them. Students view videos on cake decorating, we discuss varieties of cakes, purposes for learning to cake decorate and do some searches of different designs and ideas to get a feel for what they would like to learn. We then get a cake decorator in (locally we have 2!) and they do a demo of simple basics and they get time to practice. We then have a Cake Boss day where they decorate their cake in a time limit and are judged by volunteer teachers.
