On Wednesday Cookery Club were lucky enough to be joined by
Mrs Wade and Mrs Maurice from Vanilla Cake Design (www.vanillacakedesign.com). They
brought a huge array of cakes, chocolate, sweets and materials to decorate
cupcakes and cake pops in festive designs.
The children were taught how to make reindeer, snowmen and
polar bears using the sweets in ingenious ways, for example to create hats and
eyes before having a go at each of the designs themselves. The children
experienced piping with chocolate and buttercream icing and got to take at
least four different creations home.
We want to give our huge thanks to Mrs Wade and Mrs Maurice
for their time and generosity providing all the ingredients and materials. They
were fabulous teachers and we all learnt a lot (including the teachers who came
to see the excitement).
