TY Bake Off - ingredients and supplies!


TY-Bake Off

This was a fantastic event which everyone seemed to be interested in and loved! Nearly everyone was looking forward to it and not only that but it turned out to be a great success. My group in my opinion did well, we had great fun and tried really hard to design a delicious muffin, my group consisted of 6 people, Me, Pheobe, Killian, Alienor, Lena and Ciara. We did not win but had a really good time together. The result of our cupcake was pleasing as ours tasted wonderful, but not as good as some of the other cupcakes produced by a couple of other groups. It was a fun event and surely everyone enjoyed it!

Work Experience

I did two weeks of work experience over the spring break, 1 working in the marketing sector of a food business and the other working in a restaurant. I really enjoyed both experiences and found that they were both very useful and experienced a lot from each one. I thoroughly enjoyed the restaurant work experience as It was great fun and hard working which I really like. The food business was also very interesting as it was completely different to working in a restaurant but I learnt a lot from it. In the restaurant I participated in many jobs for example, cleaning tables, washing up, doing some extra work in the kitchen and laying tables as well as serving food for some customers. In the food business I did some scanning, printing, spent a day doing work for the head of marketing which I hugely enjoyed, went out on a delivering shift on the final day and listened to two presentations in both the financial sector of the business and the marketing. Overall i believe it was a great success! I enjoyed every minute of it and learnt a lot which will hopefully contribute to my choice of job in the future!
