• Portfolio: Candidates must demonstrate their ability to produce clean lines, consistent colors, and intricate details.

Knowledge & Skills

• Fine Motor Precision: A steady hand for detailed piping and flooding.

• Logical Prioritization: The ability to manage multiple batches in different stages (baking vs. drying vs. icing).

• Positive Professionalism: The ability to maintain a productive and upbeat attitude with the rest of the decorating team.

• Methodical Approach: A focus on accuracy, ensuring that "Cookie #1" and "Cookie #100" look identical.

Physical Demands & Environment
