Selina Poppy and I worked as a group to create an ampersand '&' series in the form of our favourite baked cakes and buns. Poppy made Banoffee, Selina made Chocolate Orange Cake and I made Chocolate Krispies. The series worked well to demonstrate our teamwork as well as creating a great overall aesthetic. To our surprise we came second overall and were complimented on the great taste not just the aesthetics. It was an interesting and different way of creating and thinking about type which we thoroughly enjoyed.
