 SUMMER FOREVER
Valentina was excited as she headed down to the kitchens along with her classmates - feeling a little impatient too. So, were they going to be able to eat cake?? She pulled her hair back in a ponytail as she entered - didn't want it getting in the way of cake decorating - before washing her hands, listening to the instructions. She placed the cake board on the turntable first before setting down the cake layer carefully. OOOH. She applied the frosting to the top of the cake with the offset spatula - it looked so yummy and she wanted to try it but later, maybe. She added the second layer of cake on top of the frosting.. so far so good. It didn't look very neat somehow.. um.. but she was going to keep going. Now for the crumb coat. She applied it slowly around the sides and on top of the cake.. and it looked better ish. Maybe. She picked it up and set it inside the ice box.. now to wait for ten minutes.
Once the time was up, she removed the cake from the ice box and walked back to her table, making sure she didn't drop it. Setting it on the turntable once again, she added a lot more frosting this time around using her spatula, trying to spread it as evenly as possible. Now, to decorate. Ummm. She wasn't good at this stuff.
