BAKING is a food cooking method using prolonged dry heat acting by convection, rather than by thermal radiation, normally in an oven, but also in hot ashes, or on hot stones. The most common baked item is bread but many other types of foods are baked. Heat is gradually transferred "from the surface of cakes, cookies and breads to their center. As heat travels through, it transforms batters and doughs into baked goods with a firm dry crust and a softer center". BAKING has been traditionally done at home by

women for domestic consumption, by men in bakeries and restaurants for local consumption and when production was industrialized, by machines in large factories. The art and skill of baking remains a fundamental one and important for nutrition, as baked goods, especially breads, are a common food, economically and culturally important. A person who prepares baked goods as a profession is called a BAKER.

I PERSONALLY LIKE TO BAKE AND ALSO MATHEMATICS. SINCE BAKING NEEDS MEASUREMENT, I CAN USE MY MATHEMATICS JUST TO GET THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF INGREDIENT I SHOULD PUT. GETTING THE RIGHT MEASUREMENT IS ONE OF THE IMPORTANT THINGS YOU SHOULD DO WHEN BAKING. EVEN A SIMPLE MISCALCULATION TO THE INGREDIENTS CAN MAKE THE BAKED PRODUCTS NOT APPETIZING TO THE CUSTOMERS OR THE GUEST.

THE SECOND ONE IS THE PASSION OR LOVE OF BAKING. LOVING SOMETHING YOU DO IS ALSO A KEY OF HAVING A GREAT RESULTS IN BAKING. THEY SAY THAT THE COOK EXPRESSES HIS/HERSELF BY THE TASTE AND THE DELICIOUSNESS OF HIS/HER DISHES. I THINK IT CAN ALSO BE APPLIED IN BAKING SINCE IT'S ALSO A WAY OF COOKING.

ALTHOUGH I CAN'T SAY THAT I'M GOOD AT BAKING AS OF

TODAY, I CAN ASSURE MYSELF THAT I LOVE DOING IT. I CAN SEE MYSELF HAVING FUN WHILE DOING IT. IT MAY BE MY HOBBY, BUT I CAN'T DO IT FOR NOW SINCE IT ALSO NEEDS EQUIPMENTS WE DON’T HAVE FOR NOW. I REALLY WANT AN OVEN.

Here are some pictures of ME while making the muffins.

We were assigned to make the muffins 

since we didn't want to join the "Debut Party".

I wasn't able to take pictures while preparations of the ingredients 

and 

also the making the dough of our muffins.

We were too busy measuring the ingredients. 

O.O

It was very tiring at some point.

It was my first time baking, and i liked the result.

The muffins were delicious!! 

om-nom-nom-nom XD

Perfect!!
 It means the eggs we used were fresh since the yolks didn't break!!

This is the icing we used in our muffins. There you can see a pink icing...
at the upper right is another bowl of icing ... it's supposed to be blue .. but it became violet..
but still not bad.. :D

This is ME putting icing in the pastry bag. :D

This is me trying my hardest!!

I was having a hard time. I can't make the icing presentable.. :'(

This is my partner in making the muffins.
She is doing the furnishing which is sprinkling sprinkles. YAY!

My classmate! He was roaming around hoping for a bite. :D
Too bad, he can't have any.. 

There were left-overs in the icings. So made my self entertained ! XD

This was the cake we made during our "Wedding Party" in our Banquet Subject.
I wasn't able to take pictures during the making of this cake.
I was too preoccupied to get my camera and take pictures.
This picture is enough. :D
