Reflection #6

Yesterday, April 14th, I started my job at J.W Desserts. When I first got there John showed me around the kitchen, showed me where he kept all of his things, showed me the ovens and the walk in freezers. He got out about 50 bake boards for me to wrap in colored paper to put his cakes on. After I finished that, we made his specialty cupcakes. They are HUGE cupcakes that you dip the first two layers in white chocolate, then when they have cooled down and hardened a little bit, you do half of the cupcake in dark or milk chocolate. All of the chocolate is melted of course. So it is easy to get onto the cupcake. John has a wine banquet he is catering on April 17th and the 18th. There are going to be about two thousand people there. Before I came to work, he had made the crumb bars and the flowerless cake pans. Then he cut them up and I helped transfer them into little cupcake holders. I worked for about three hours. It was a lot of fun for my first day.
