As frosting was being spread and cakes were taking shape, students rolled up their sleeves and learned about Alicia&#8217;s journey in starting her own cake business, <em>Demi Taste Good Treats.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cake decorating has many fundamentals, and while students planned their own cake designs and learned how to make and dye buttercream frosting, a PS Facilitator, Nora, helped students generate questions for Alicia about her career path. Under Alicia&#8217;s guidance, students brought their ideas to life. Her cheerful energy inspired students to build both practical cake decorating skills, as well as their confidence through this new art medium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The sweet day of learning wrapped up with students admiring each other&#8217;s finished creations, enjoying some cupcakes, and celebrating a fun and memorable learning experience. Daylong workshops like this are just one of the many ways that Project Success offers engaging, hands-on programming for students on non-school days. Creating opportunities for them to learn new skills, connect with a PS alum, and discover new possibilities for their futures.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.kb-gallery-type-thumbslider.kb-gallery-id-34278_0625a3-33 .kt-blocks-carousel-init {margin-bottom:10px;}.kb-gallery-id-34278_0625a3-33 .kadence-blocks-gallery-item
