Middle school students learned how to assemble and create eye-catching strawberry shortcakes during their November 6 cooking class with chef instructor Dan Carney. The students made whipping cream from scratch and then iced the shortcakes with the whipping cream. They also learned how to cut and slice fresh strawberries in a variety of shapes and used the strawberries and fresh mint to decorate the cakes. “This class is a great way for students to get excited about cooking and to learn how to prepare healthy food that can taste good and look good too,” said Mr. Carney, who is in his second year teaching both middle school and high school cooking classes.
