On 13th September 2012, the Leo Club of SMK
Assunta held a ‘Bake My Heart Out’ fund raising project. This project is to
help raise funds for upcoming events such as Christmas Caroling and the Leo
Orientation Camp.
There were 20 Leos who participated in this project. It was
lead by Lion Malcolm and our teacher advisor, Pn. Betty. We met at the ‘Bilik
Masakan’ at 8 o’clock. We made blueberry turnovers. We started by filling the
pastries with blueberry jam and then folded it. After that, it was glazed on
top with egg. It was then placed on buttered trays and was ready to be baked.
After about 45 minutes, we were done and there were no
pastries left. We rested and waited for the pastries to cool down. When it was
cooled, we packed all of it into individual plastic bags to be sold. Shortly
after that, a few Leos went to sell them at the canteen. Surprisingly, we sold
all of our pastries within an hour.
After that, we all left and had our recess. 20 minutes
later, we met up again at the ‘Bilik Masakan’ for our second batch. This time
we made apple-flavoured turnovers and more blueberry turnovers. We had a system
this time. It consisted of 8 people to do the filling, 6 people to glaze the
pastries with egg, 2 people in charge of the oven and 4 people in charge of
sales. When the next batch was done, it was cooled and packed. It was sold out
within the next hour and a half.
In addition, it was very profitable day. We made about RM200
in profit that day. After that we cleaned up and placed everything back in
their places. It was also a really a fun day. Lion Malcolm also allowed us to
eat some of the pastries. All in all, it was a day I did not regret spending.
