Class final in progress

So today I started working on my final for my emerging media class. I built a business page on Facebook for my cakes which was a little strange for me to see. I never planned on making my baking into a business, I still don't really, but it is fun to entertain the idea.

Today is also the anniversary of this cake, this is probably my favorite cake that I've ever made, partly because there is a cheesecake in the middle 😀

If you have watched a show such as MasterChef it is the same basic premise. GBBO, moved from BBC to Channel 4 for selective reasons. While these reasons are being guarded, it has been rumored that money was one of the leading reasons for the switch. While BBC offered a good amount of money, it simply was not enough and Channel 4 swooped in and purchased GBBO for 75 million. When GBBO was on BBC there were no commercials.
