This week I have been working on my research paper. It took me a little while to get started but I think I am going to be able to reach the dead line. This past weekend I talked with my mentor and completed the interview questions that i wrote. We have spoke several times on trying to decide which type wedding cake will be best for my project.
I am probably just going to do a basic wedding cake (maybe two layers) but the twist will be the designs of the decoration but you will just have to wait to see what they are going to be.

The past two days we have been working on forms and letters for the senoir project. I have completed my letter of intent for my mentor and am waiting on approval to turn it in . I also completed the "Graduation project proposal approval form" and am waiting to have it put on my web page!

I am very excited about learning how to bake a wedding and then doing all of the decorations. I know that this is a very time consuming project but I am willing to take the time to learn something new.

I have planned to meet with my mentor this sunday (January 18th, 2009) to discuss what we will be doing. I will post back once I have completed another step of this process!

The idea that I have for my senoir project is cake baking and decorating. I want to learn to bake cakes and how many different ways to decorate them. I do have a person that has said she would be my mentor, her name is Diane Kaylor (she goes to my church).
I know that it would be hard to write a paper on just caking backing, so I thought that maybe I could do it on the history of baking and how it has advanced.
