During their Food Technology elective last term, our Year 9 and 10 students were given the task of designing and preparing a cake for a particular cultural event or celebration. Students learnt various cake and dessert recipes, as well as icing and decorating techniques. But none as fun and scientific as the artistic mirror glaze demonstrated by our Science teacher (and baker extraordinaire) Marie Perry.
The mirror glaze uses carefully calibrated temperatures and a precise method, requiring organisation to achieve the uniquely beautiful result. A big thank you to Marie for sharing your passion for kitchen chemistry!
