Grocery Store Visit and First Day of Presentation Trials-Bradlie and Arianna

     Today we began the day by making a list of ingredients that we needed to buy at Acme to complete our final presentation dish. Each group decided to make very unique dishes: Arianna and I are making a chocolate sponge cake with a coffee foam on top, Sky and Sean are making pop rocks, Julia, Angela and Matt are making a caramel whipped cream, Elodie and Sam are making fruit gel, and Amanda, Eloise, and Bella are making vanilla dry ice ice cream with Nutella powder. We arrived at Acme and each group ventured off to collect their ingredients, and later met up by the registers. We quickly arrived back to EA and began to experiment with our different foods.
       Arianna and I could only make our chocolate sponge cake as we were waiting for our gelatin sheets to arrive in order to make our coffee foam. We attempted to make our chocolate batter, then refrigerated our batter in an ISI Whipper. Unfortunately, our batter did not spray out of the Whipper, and we knew that we had to make changes to our recipe the following week. In the mean time we started to make our coffee for our foam. Other groups faced similar issues, but we all looked forward to the following week of trials in order to perfect our dishes!
