Wednesday-Baking Day!!



Bonjour!! Its me again. Well, continuing from the story again, we decided to make the cake on Wednesday. Around 2.30pm, I went to fetch Sheiffa at the MRT station. Then, we went to shop to open the shop before buying the ingredients for our cake. After that, Imet my mum at Ghim Lee to buy the ingredients for our chosen cake, which is called Rich Chocolate Cake. My mum, Alia, Sheiffa and I went to buy the ingredients and went home. Saffwan came around 5pm, after playing tennis with his cousin. Suddenly, we realised that we were short of certain things and that Abidah, Ameerah and the boys have not come back from the Library yet. We started really, really late. It was later than what we planned.

After what seemed like forever, the gang finally came around 6.30pm. Then, the fun starts. Saffwan and I measured the ingredients while the rest will start prepaing the cake. We divided the team into two, boys-Saffwan, Anis and Aadil and the girls -Me, Ameerah, Sheiffa, Abidah, Akidah and Alia. The oldest girls- Ameerah, Sheiffa and Abidah, made the dough for the cake. Alia and Akidah stirred the chocolate for the flavorings. The boys were to make the chocolate glaze as a topping. I was to bake the cake and made sure everything went smoothly. Then, Sheiffa and Saffwan had to go home becoz the mother were to fetch them. But how to go home when we have not even started baking? Anyways, they went home and we continued baking. After about 40 minutes, the cake was ready. I'm not saying anything, but the cake turned out great!! It was really nice. Not bad for first timers. Our only setback was that the cake turned out to be small. But it was enough to divide between four different families. All those who baked were proud of themselves as the cake turned out good. We called it our mini factory. I took pictures of us working together to produce the cake. Its is being developed. This is what our finished product look like.We had a blast!!
