Thursday,
Dec. 9
Tania
Angstadt of Bon Appetit knows the way to a student’s
heart runs directly through his sweet tooth.
Angstadt
spent three days assembling a gingerbread train, which highlighted
the Winter in Candy Land event last Thursday at the Terrace
Dining Room. The confection connoisseur made the dough from
scratch and pieced together the sugary sweet locomotive using
lots of icing and candy. No detail was overlooked—including
the snow, fashioned from coconut.
During
the holiday feast, students munched on gingerbread cookies,
cupcakes, ginger shrimp, eggnog, and apple cider glazed ham,
served up by Bon Appetit employees dressed as characters from
Candy Land, like Mr. Mint and Gramma Nutt. Students also enjoyed
raffles and a screening of Willy Wonka & the Chocolate
Factory during dinner.
As
for the gingerbread train, Angstadt said it will be on display
during Wednesday’s holiday reception for faculty and
staff—“if it lasts that long!” —AF
