This week we baked with Kieran’s mum (Cheryl). We were split into groups of 5. 6 people and Mrs Ferguson went to the Co-op in Hurlford to buy the ingredients to bake with. The Manager gave us marshmallows, smarties and chocolate for free.
With Cheryl we made cup cakes. It was tricky measuring out all the ingredients and softening the butter by hand. When had fun working out how to half and quarter the ingredients. We used scales and had to work out how to read them carefully. For the truffles we crushed up biscuits by hand and some of us liked using it as a ‘stress buster’. We melted chocolate, spooned out condensed milk and added coco powder and coconut.
We had a brilliant time with her teaching us and we can’t wait for her to come back. We wish for her to come in every week – it was soooo great!
