I interviewed for a job at a bakery this morning. Up to now, cake decorating was just a hobby, but I'm now on a career track to start my own wedding & celebration cakes business, so this job would be a really excellent opportunity to increase my skill level.
The talking portion went great, so they put me on the spot and had me decorate a cake. It was a lot of pressure, but I decided that it didn't have to be perfect. I had fun with it and took some risks. I've never piped roses before today, and I think they came out decent, considering. I failed twice to transfer a rose onto the side, so I improvised piping a peony directly onto the side.
So what do you think? Should they hire me?
