Experiment Conditions

So the people might be asking what are the conditions of the experiment I’m planning to do because of course there must be a limit. Last week I had to bake cookies because of the high demand from the children that they want cookies and couldn’t whip out the new brownies I wanted to experiment with.

I mean the original brownies I baked was for a lesson on how to use the oven for a baking fundamentals class. Now I guess I could bake whatever I want or call myself a business I mean its not really a side hustle when you want to because fullfilling this business is tiring but that’s what you get for running one anyways its just exhausting. But I mean its just another way to make money for me. I don’t have plans to ever work for it fulltime after I’m college maybe I’ll take a break for a year and work on it I’m unsure whether I’ll take a break before college.

Anyways the children wanted cookies because I barely sold any cookies and I used to always bake them when the baking teacher was out or there was nothing to bake for the week. Since baking class is over I could focus on this business of mine set up a better Facebook page and then use it as backup for my portfolio if ever the admission team ask about me starting a business or a passion project at least that’s something decent I could put not a 100% garentee that I’ll get into college. But this website is just there to prove that this business exists, other than social media. I guess people are still impressed of children and teens starting entrepreneurship at a very young age I mean universities are still impressed by those scenarios just look at people say that the number 1 way to get into an ivy league in the US is to start a passion project.

So here’s how the experiment is going to go and I’ll start making a runthrough of the results by next week if the children would stop demanding for cookies since I need to get a life outside of baking. The first thing I’ll experiment with and I keep writing it this way is to bake brownies and to bake brownies from scratch so that it’ll be more like a bakery than what it is now. After baking a new brownie recipe I might end up baking some kinds of bread like pandesal then I might bake some other things that are probably worth baking and could be sold easily. Demographic wise I have to make sure that I don’t bake anything too expensive or anything too difficult because the ingredients will eventually be too expensive and be out of reach to buy for most of the customers so I’ll need to make sure that I could stick to limitations and not try anything too expensive and maybe out of the realm.

If anything majority of college is mostly going to be self studying so I must try hard and a lot of things will be my choice I need to overcome my weakness in math immediately since I’ll be eventually taking a business course. At least getting this baking startup was a wise choice I suppose and if I want another proof the business exists I’ll just get a city permit to proove that it’s a business.

After I try baking a couple of things and remaking the brownie recipe from scratch. I’ll try to eventually develop a focus on baking cakes once I try to experiment with the other half of business by July. I’ll sort of just bake a cake every other week and try to figure out how to make a decent cake and start up cake decorating services and make it customized so that I could also earn a more decent scrap of money from there. Well I‘m not going to start making cake decorating services by the end of the experiments on summer but I’ll pratice and maybe hone it a little. I’ll also try to learn on cake layering so I could know what kind of height cakes have and the kinds of icing so I could know how to make them decently I suppose.

I already tried baking cupcakes for someone’s birthday party but that’s just about it not so much experiences with baking cakes but I need to expand my skillset in order to improve my business, I also need to expand my skillset in other areas but its more on math and probably a bunch of other things like asking my parents less for money because its childish of me.

I’ll try to write as much as I could in this blog post at least once a week whatever the results of this experiment and take pictures of the process even if they’re poor whatsoever when it comes to results. I used to do this for every baking class homework I did but now I need to keep accountability somewhere else and this blog would be a perfect place to do it as well. I’ll try to use stock photos less whenever I write my blog posts and show the process of how I actually bake instead of hiding behind stock photos. I’ll also try to take better quality photos of the products I’m baking businesswise so that there’s at least better quality pictures for marketing reasons.

When one is making a business, trying to sell a good quality product one must improve on what they’re doing well at least college is mostly self studying for a degree anyways so I must improve and must try harder especially that its a more math oriented course. At least it’ll do me some good once I get this degree I could use this to the advantage of the hiring process in the Philippines since most people will only hire here if one has a college degree unless I decide to do entrepreneurship full time which is unlikely to happen.

Then that’s all I plan for said experiments.
