was not in the bakery at the time
- a customer came to the door to pick up a cake they ordered, but noticed that it did not have the writing
they had requested
- I had never decorated on a cake before and had minimal training. I called the owner and she did not
pick up, so I had to make a decision of whether to write on the cake and risk it not coming out as nicely
as it should or give it to the customer without any writing and not fully satisfy their requests. I had
watched the head baker decorate the cakes before, so using that and the amount of training I had, I
practiced what I was supposed to write on the counter and when I felt confident, I wrote on cake in
frosting. The customer was pleased with what I was able to give her and the owner was happy that I
made the decision to try and please the customer.
