On Friday, October 15th, we made cupcakes to sell, rather than staff lunches. Due to homecoming being on Friday, the class periods were way shorter. So we wouldn't have had enough time to make the lunches.
We made chocolate cupcakes with chocolate buttercream frosting and vanilla cupcakes with caramel buttercream frosting. We made fondant disks in our school colors (blue and white) piped black icing pawprints on them. We put the fondant disks on top of the buttercream icing.
We sold them for $1.50 each or 3 for $4.00.
We made around 80 cupcakes, and sold between 60 and 70.
We did pretty well, our cupcakes looked cute and showed alot of school spirit, and they tasted good. (:

Staff lunches; 10/8/10
Last week, for our staff lunches, we made chicken and tofo skewers with couscous, and honey-walnut cupcakes with honey buttercream frosting, a disk of baklava, and a fondant honeybee on top.
Me and Bri made the chicken skewers, and I think it went pretty well.
Amy made the tofu skewers, and I'm sure they turned out good, too.
Taylor and McKenna made the cupcakes, and they did a very good job. We all helped with the bees, and the cupcakes came out looking very good, and I'm sure they tasted just as good.
Kelsie, Lindsay Sammy made the couscous, and it turned out good, and very tasty.
Sammy made the baklava, and it turned out amazing. (:
Last weeks preparation went pretty well.
We all got done soon enough to help McKenna and Taylor with the fondant bees, which turned out super cute.
Overall, I'd say last week turned out to be pretty calm and not as stressful as some of the others. (:
