Description

With tiny culinary tools—including silicone finger mitts!—and recipes for teensy portions, kids will make petite versions of cupcakes, layer cakes, corn muffins, cinnamon rolls, deep dish pizza, and more as they explore the science and history behind chemical and thermal reactions, nutrition, states of matter in cooking and baking, and discover what turns gooey batter into melt-in-your-mouth cake. Science concepts include the Maillard reaction, pH, the importance of egg proteins in baking, and when to use different types of leavenings. Tiny Baking! gets an “A” for adorable!
