Alexandra Holt did a senior project where she learned cupcake and cake decorating. She made various cupcakes and cakes, starting with cupcakes and moving on to cakes. She chose this project because she loves baking and wanted to learn decorative techniques. During the project, she researched the history of cakes and cupcakes. She faced challenges like mixing up ingredients and cutting herself while decorating. Her project facilitator helped with ideas and feedback. Through this project, she learned that cakes require more effort than she prefers and now plans to study meteorology instead of pursuing a bakery career.
