700 pieces and Helping Hands!!

Guess What! I just finished making my biggest order ever, 700 1.5"x 1.5"x 1.5" pieces of fruit cake. I got this order for Sri Sai Baba's Sarva Dharma Service Center inauguration in NJ, and they were planning to give the fruit cake as Prasad for the function. Initially, I was so scared to take this order because I thought I couldn't handle making all of it. Eventually I said yes, as I wanted to challenge myself and prove that I can do really big orders. A couple of weeks after I accepted the order, I held a taste test for them at my house. I made 3 different variations of cake for them, and they decided that they liked a recipe which had a power punch of spices and fruits.  

My parents and I assembled the 700 boxes during the week, assembling 100 or 200 a day.  I baked 22 cakes, which would be cut into the squares, over the course of 3 days with a lot of help from my mom. However, I knew I still needed help to finish the process and I enlisted the help of my friends and family to label the boxes, cut the cakes, wrap the pieces and stuff them into individual boxes. Look for the assembly line video below. Thanks a lot Radha Chithappa, Gayu Chithi, Sahana Radhakrishnan, Abina Nimalashanthan, Anika Nerella, Ishita Khanna, Roshni Dhanasekar,  Kavya Dhanasekar, Samyuktha Kumaran, Mukta Patwari!!! You guys are the best!

The fruit cake was awesome and every single person who came to the inauguration asked about it. The entire process of ordering was a delight with Sanjana - she had a tasting session with 4 types of fruit cakes - it was very difficult to choose as each was so good on it's own. Wishing Sanjana lot more success in the future.

    I am Sanjana Srinivasan and I started baking when I was 11 years old. Thanks to cupcake wars! A year later, June 2013,  I started an online bakery called Frosted World . I donate all the money I make to charity. Hopefully, I will learn to become a better baker, and a better person in general. It feels good to bake cupcakes for a cause.  Thanks for all your support!
