Scope of the Contest:
The contest is defined by industry standards as identified by SkillsUSA National technical committee. Please
see technical standards for COMMERCIAL BAKING.

Knowledge Performance:
The contest will include a resume and a live, skilled competition, Zoom session with industry judges;
demonstrating the decorating of a pre-baked cake and preparation of chocolate chip cookies and apple
galettes. Contestants will be evaluated on their resume, final products, and general skills. See attached
formulas/information for more specifics.

Contest Information:
PDF Resume
   • Resumes must be submitted to the SkillsUSA Platform. Failure to do so will result in a deduction of
      points. State resume scoring guide can be found here. Students will also need to take the SkillsUSA
      Knowledge test using the SkillsUSA Platform.

Live Zoom Session with Judges
    • Each participant/instructor will receive 2 Zoom invites for the competition for the specified date/time.
    • Join the two sessions, each on a different device with quality cameras and audio ability.
           o One camera should be tight on the contestant (able to zoom in as needed) and the second
              camera should be distanced from contestant to include the entire work area.
    • Students will need to log into Zoom and change their name to their contestant number.
    • A third-party person must act as a liaison/proctor for the judges during the contest. This may be a
       person from the school, such as a counselor or administrator, or an industry professional
       (preferred). Another student or the instructor are not acceptable.
    • Record the entire session in case of technical issues during the session- this will be submitted to the
       contest coordinator via the SkillsUSA platform upon completion of the competition.
    • Make sure that captured audio is high quality for judge’s review. Quality of technology will not affect
       the contestant’s score.

      a specified platform.
   • Specified photos of each completed product must also be uploaded to the platform, labeled with your

                                               Tip Sheet

BEFORE YOU BEGIN…

READ all your formulas through. Points are deducted for not following directions

ORGANIZE your workstation. Keep your table neat and safe

ORGANIZE your time; you will need the entire time allowed to complete this competition

PLAN - this has several steps:

     •   Don’t assume or necessarily work in the same order as the formulas presented in the workbook
     •   For each product, estimate the time needed to scale, mix, rest, bake, cook and finish
     •   Put it all together, Plan what your day will look like – what will you work on, in what order, at what
         time

Pay attention at Orientation. Ask questions…that’s the time to get your questions answered.

ONCE YOU START….

WRITE a note - use your timers - do whatever it takes to avoid these common mistakes –
      Leaving products in the oven too long
      Forgetting to display products

Watch your oven temperatures…make sure you are baking at the right temperature.

Check and double check your ingredients……Is it sugar OR is it salt?

CAKES are easier to decorate when they are frozen

Always CHECK and start mixers at what level? - #1

Please contact me with questions and I will respond as soon as possible.
