Field Trip #15

The above picture, in case you were wondering is a piece of white fondant getting ready to be dyed. To dye fondant you add a certain type of food coloring on a tool pick to the fondant, a lot goes a very long way, trust me learn from experience. From there, you knead the fondant in your hands and mix all the coloring into it until you get the color of your dreams! Well, today was probably if not one of the final times I went to visit my sponsor. My main purpose for going today was to take pictures. I am doing a power point presentation along with my final and I wanted to get pictures of the bakery and some of the stuff they make. I also wanted to get pictures of all of the employees and explain their roles in the bakery but of course, everyone hates pictures so I did not get them. In the end, I got some very good pictures that will add the finishing touches to my power point. Before going to my sponsor, I have my mentor fifth period in class and I practiced working with my fondant. I rolled it out and colored it to see what colors I liked best and wanted to use and just messed around and had a good time with it. All the pieces to the puzzle are finally coming together and I getting excited to do my final presentation for everyone but I am still very nervous that something will go wrong. Today was a very successful day! :)
