Problem
PROBLEM
The celebration of Thanksgiving is approaching and a client hires us to serve desserts for 200 pax;
our capacity in the bakery is for 100 pax. The customer does not like desserts with margarine, is
allergic to cinnamon and lactose intolerant and wants traditional desserts of the celebration,
pumpkin pie, apple pie, cheesecake and walnut cake. Our recipes of the celebration have margarine
due to the weather and costs, in addition to the traditional recipes of this celebration, all have
cinnamon and dairy. What ingredient would you use to replace margarine while remaining costly?
What will you do to make desserts retain their traditional flavor without the use of cinnamon? What
ingredients would you use to replace dairy? How much extra staff and equipment do you need for
proper processing and storage?

How to make American cheesecake:


1
Prepare all the ingredients and turn on the oven to preheat it to 180 ºC.
Having this ready, we start by making the basis for the cheesecake. To do this, take the
cookies and crush them with the mixer until they are very thin, almost powdered. Add the
soft butter and mix well until you get a homogeneous and uniform dough.

Then add the dough to a special removable baking pan and press with your fingers on the
bottom and walls until an even layer is left. Bake the dough for about 15 minutes.
Remove the base of the cheesecake from the oven and raise the temperature to about 200
ºC.

2
Then it's time to make the cream cheese. Then, beat the cheese for about 30 seconds, add
and beat the sugar, flour, zest, vanilla, eggs, yolks and finally cream.
When you have a completely integrated and homogeneous mixture, pour it into the mold and
place it in the oven.

3
After the first 15 minutes of cooking the cheesecake, the oven temperature is lowered to 100
ºC and continue cooking for 1 hour.
Then, turn off the oven and leave the cake inside for another hour with the oven door ajar.

Finally, remove the American cheesecake from the oven and let cool to room temperature.
Unmold and cover to taste with blueberry jam or red fruit jam.
Book in the fridge for a couple of hours and it is ready to taste.

Recipes
Justify the decision to change the ingredients:

The original recipes ask us to elaborate the preparations with butter, cinnamon and dairy products, however given the indications we have decided
to substitute the ingredients as follows in the preparation of the pumpkin pie, butter will be replaced by vegetable shortening and cinnamon by star
anise; vegetable shortening does not contain dairy products in its preparation, it is solid at room temperature, smooth, pure and soft, in the same
way vegetable shortening gives strength to the dough (base of the pie) and also provides a feeling of high quality, safety and purity. On the other
hand, the flavor of cinnamon will be replaced by star anise because, like cinnamon, it can provide a sweetness, and thus add a sweet flavor to the
preparation, likewise adding ginger in the preparation provides the spicy flavor of cinnamon.
In the apple pie, cinnamon is replaced by nutmeg as it has an earthy but sweet flavor which is similar to cinnamon. In the case of the cheesecake, we
have decided to replace the cream cheese with 15% fat coconut milk because it is a vegetable product, light, sweet and contains fewer calories but
provides a great flavor, so we can maintain the quality of our product without seriously affecting the price.
The heavy cream will be replaced by a mixture of tofu and soy milk because by adding soy milk to tofu we obtain a mixture of thick cream, tofu has
a neutral flavor and a high nutritional value, soy milk although it has a lower caloric content is a good choice for various preparations. Finally we have
the walnut cake where the filling is substituted, that is, butter for hummus, which in addition to being dairy-free and vegan, is an excellent source of
protein, fiber and micronutrients such as manganese, copper and folate.
Justification for extra staff
Apart from the established service of attention for 100 psx. It is necessary to have 12 extra people, to be able to place the order cheaply and quickly,
these 12 people will be in the kitchen to be able to place the order.
3 people will be divided by preparation: pumpkin pie, apple pie, cheese cake and walnut pie, this in order to better manage the times, since each
team will be exclusively in charge of the recipe that was assigned to them. , so as not to hinder any other procedure.
At the end, the verification or missing recipes will be carried out, in order to complete them on time.

CONCLUTION
Greece
For me this practical case was something difficult to realize, since before I had never organized or planned the full cost of an event, of course I had
paid for recipes in the third quarter but this time I complicated something else, since the requests of the clients were somewhat complicated to
change, I was glad to be able to work in such an activity, since I could take my imagination to flight with the creation of the emplatados of the
desserts, in addition to using some knowledge I gained in the field of cymbal standardization. In my team there were several changes that we made
regarding cheese, since we could not find something that could replace it with something like this and the price would not change, since the budget
would have to remain the same. I would say that the important thing of this activity was to investigate all kinds of ingredients and mixtures that
could be created to replace a product, at least to me made known several types of ingredients that can be used to replace others.
Rose
What I learned from this work is that you have to know how we can substitute one ingredient for another but without affecting the original recipe.
We all take care of carrying out the work, each change was considered, modified to the case to give priority to what that the client requested. The
justification of the extra equipment to be used was given. According to our perception, the spices that we used were very well combined, both the
original and the modified recipes were paid for. This task leaves a lot of teaching since one must learn to substitute ingredients in case it is required
because there are people who are special with some condiment or ingredient, the fact of paying for recipes also has its degree of difficulty because
when replacing an ingredient you have to check that it does not exceed your original budget.
Nayeli
Doing this work was tedious and a little complicated in some aspects but I consider it important because it helps us to obtain skills and knowledge
about how to plan an event focused more than anything in the gastronomic area such as desserts, We were able to understand more by investigating
the different ingredients or combinations of ingredients that could replace some others in the elaborations as were in this case the various cakes and
above all we learned to taste the proper guidelines for when we have a customer with a special request such as having some kind of allergy to any
ingredient or something else, we are prepared and thus we can have a solution quickly and effectively.

Eddy
In this work we try to find substitutes for the specifications that our client asks us for, in which we replace the cinnamon with different spices to
obtain a similar flavor with its spiciness and sweetness, just like the lactes, since our client is not from their liking as well as margarine and we
replace them with a lacto-free product. These types of cases serve us to have an example of the types of clients that await us and we are capable of
fulfilling our work despite the buts or changes in the ingredients for our production
