Students worked in partnerships to design a cake according to their client's request. "Clients" ranged from a cake for a 5 year old's birthday who likes animals and outdoors, a cake to celebrate Father's Day and a graduation cake. Guess which cake won?
Congrats to Nate and Lucas-- Dinosaur Cake!

Students in Mrs. Morse's Food for Life class participated in a Burger Contest as part of their nutrient unit on Proteins. Students worked cooperatively to create a recipe, prepare it, construct a poster, and present their new idea to a group of judges. The "Messed Up Burger" earned top honors created by Tucker, Julee, Nick, and with the help of Mrs. C. Their recipe was a well-seasoned patty, topped with bacon, lettuce, relish, and mayo/Thousand Island dressing on a toasted bun. Congratulations to all!
