It is important to follow the directions on sanitisers carefully. Sanitisers always use heat and water,
chemicals or combination of both methods. The temperature of water used to rinse them to kill bacteria
and remove any chemical residue is 75 to 77degree C or hoter to soak the item for two or more minutes.

Feedback: recheck the temperature to kill bacteria.

7. Explain five things you should keep in mind to safely use hot trays and pots.
o Keep your work area clean. This prevents hot baking trays, pot and saucepans from tipping or
falling over and gives you space to set hot equipment’s down 
o Switch off hot equipment when not in use 
o Use a ladle to remove sauces from the pot rather than pouring directly from it. 
o Use tongs or spatulas to remove hot baked goods from trays. Also use them to add ingredients to
saucepans so you avoid burns from splashes or steam. 
o Use cloth gloves/mitts or dry tea towels to touch hot tools and equipment 

8. State three ways you can update your technological skills and knowledge so you can use
equipment safely and hygienically.

Multiple – Choice Questions.

Question 1:
The following factors can be used toestimate the number of serves to be prepared for service.
Match each factor to the relevant example:
Historical data e.g. if there are more or fewer diners than normal 

Number of bookings e.g. set menu events may mean fewer dishes prepared but more of
each dish 

Page 32 of 49
Special functions e.g. on a Friday night you average 30 serves of a particular dish 

Climate and weather e.g. a storm may affect the usual number of customers in a
waterfront restaurant with a large terrace 

Question 2:
Common methods used to calculate the required ingredients for menu preparation
include:(Answer true or false in space provided)
True or
False
All planning and preparation of dishes starts with the menu. F
To help you prepare the dish correctly, businesses generally provide standard T
recipe cards (SRCs) for each dish which shows you exactly what is needed for
the dish and how to prepare it.
The various menu items are broken up into key preparation tasks and an T
overall preparation list or workflow is prepared.
By adding up the recipes you can figure out how many orders you need to F
place for each ingredient.
The recipe requirements then have to be calculated, e.g. if the standard recipe T
card is for 10 serves and 40 serves are needed, then the ingredient quantities
on the recipe card would need to be multiplied by 4.
The types and amounts of ingredients are selected and requisitioned from F
stores or collected from the dry store or coolroom depending on organisational
procedures.

Question 3:
The following factors may affect the selection of ingredients when
preparing desserts. Match each factor to the relevant example:
Seasonality e.g. specialised cooking equipment like ice cream makers and
commercial mixers may be needed 

Price e.g. it may be cheaper to buy certain fruit at specific times of the
year, e.g. raspberries can be very expensive out of season. 

Infrastructure e.g. differences in menus and expectations between an aged


hostel, café, restaurant and 5 star hotel or cruise ship 

Equipment e.g. self-service, set menu, à la carte buffet style. 


available
Quality standards such as FIFO (first-in-first-out) are important to ensure that the
oldest product is used up first

Service as some fruit may only be available for a limited time, e.g.
requirements tropical fruit in winter or wild strawberries in Europe. 

Whichever equipment is used, it is important to check it first for cleanliness T
to prevent cross-contamination.
Any equipment that has to be assembled must be put together correctly. T
Incorrect assembly could damage the equipment or cause injury.
If you are unsure about any aspect of how to use equipment you must T
refuse to do the task and report your supervisor to management.
Equipment malfunctions and faults must be reported to asupervisor and T
any faulty equipment must be tagged and removed from operations.
Hygiene is a key factor during any job and regular cleaning and sanitation T
of equipment during usage or when changing a food item, isessential.
Correct storage conditions must be used to ensure that equipment can T

Question 8:
What is the role of sauces used for desserts? Which
aspects should be considered for preparation and presentation?
(Answer true or false in space provided)
True or
False
Sauces often lift a dish byeither enhancing the underlying flavour or by T
providing a contrast.
Sweet sauces can be based on fruit, syrups, custard varieties, chocolate base or T
sabayon.
Sauces can be used toaccompany dishes, e.g. an apricot sauce with a savarin. T


Often they are used in combinations like a chocolate sauce and raspberry T
coulis to add different flavours andcolours to a dish or as garnish, like
feathering two sauces on a plate.
Sauces should not influence contrast and textureof a dish. F
The thickening agents used in sweet sauces should be based on pure starches T
or gels that set once cooled as these interfere the least with the base flavours.

Question 9:
Connect the process for making fruit-based sauces to the
correctproduction method:
Jam process 2  For instant fresh sauces you can also blendany fruit with stock
syrup. This sauce will last longer than a sauce based on icing sugar.
This process can also be adapted similar to the jam process, where
the syrup is boiled with the fruit, citrus juice and cinnamon to
105°C, then strained and poured into sterilised containers. Stock

Page 35 of 49
syrup will provide a sweeter flavour and should be used for frozen
or less ripe fruit
Fresh A simple process in which you cover the fresh or frozen fruit with
blending 3 sugar, add any desired spices like cinnamon or star anise and let
process the fruit soak. Bring the mixture to the boil and cook until the fruit
is tender. Push through a sieve and pour into a sterilised container
to prevent the development of unwanted moulds or bacteria.
This sauce has excellent shelf life
Stock syrup 1 Mix the fruit and simply crush it for a rougher, chunkier, salsa
process style texture, or blend it with icing sugar and strain for a smooth
finish. Citrus juice, alcohol and spices can be added for variation
and to highlight or support flavours. This type of sauce will have
a fresh flavour, but will lose its fresh taste quicklyand should only
be produced in small quantities

Question 10:
Connect the custard-based sauce to the appropriate production method:
Anglaise 1 A fresh mixture is produced, strained and then served on the side of
base desserts. If it is to be used warm it might be stabilised with cornflour or a
small amount of custard powder as the starch will prevent the
mixture from splitting. If keeping it in a bain-marie make sure it is
suspended above the heat and keep the temperature at ~80°C otherwise
the protein will solidify, appearing as specks in the sauce
Custard Boil the milk and sugar, add the diluted custard powder (1012% starch
2
base to liquid) and bring the mixture to the boil. Take care not to burn it
on the bottom. Strain the sauce and store with a cartouche or coating
of icing sugar on the top to prevent the forming of skin. This sauce will
also keep in the bain-marie and is cheaper to produce.

Question 11:
Connect the foam sauces to the relevant production principles:
Sabayon applies the principles of whipping the yolks or eggs with the sugar
1 and liquid over a water bath until a firm froth is achieved. This is
referred to as the “ribbon stage” when the egg yolk starts to
coagulate and the incorporated air is kept suspended.
American Is made with sugar and egg yolk whipped over a bain-marie and
Syllabub 3 then whipped cold. Lightly whipped cream is folded through and for
other varieties fruit purees,liqueuror chocolate can be added.
Sauce Is a variation of a foam that can be used as a sauce, a dessert by
Mousseline 2 itself or even as a drink depending on the proportions of the
 ingredients. It uses cream instead of egg yolk to hold the air bubbles.

Question 12:
Match the crème to the appropriate description:
Crème A “reversed cream” containing liquid (milk, stock, cream)and egg
Chantilly which sets after cooking and is then turned out, such as Crème
Caramel. Royale is another term used for this type of cream
Crème à Pastry or confectioner’s cream that can be set with flour. Modern

l’Anglaise recipessubstitute pure starch as it does not interfere with the
flavour
Crème This is a mixture of Anglaise and butter. Variations such as Italian
Renversée butter cream or icing can be substituted
Crème Whipped dairy cream with sugar and vanilla
Pâtissière
Crème Also referred to as Bavarian Cream. It uses English custard,
Bavarois gelatine and whipped cream. For a cheaper or lighter version
replace half of the cream with whipped egg white
Crème A mixture of egg yolks, sugar and milk thickened by the egg. Also
DiplomaT referred to as English custard
Butter A mixture of crème pâtissière and whipped cream used for
Cream flavoursome fillings as in profiteroles or bee sting cake

Question 13:
Connect the filling to the relevant production method:
Ganache 4 special filling for chocolate pralines made from nuts, icing sugar
and chocolate or cocoa butter
Curds 6 Used for chocolate hollows, a mixture of stock syrup and liqueur
or spirit
Gianduja A mixture of nut paste and sugar boiled with glucose and then
1 cooled and milled. It is hardly ever produced fresh. It is made
using different nut types such as almond, hazelnut and
pistachio and also, as a substitute, using cheaper kernels such
as apricot or peach.
Liqueur 2  A mixture of hot cream and chopped chocolate forming a paste.
Fillings This is explained in detail in the chocolate section
Marzipan A mixture of caramel and roasted nuts. The mixture is poured
3
onto an oiled baking paper and once cooled, broken up or finely
ground, depending on use. It can also be added to chocolate or
gianduja
Praline 5 A mixture of citrus juice, egg and sugar. It may be set baked in the
oven or thickened with pure starches

Question 14:
What are the procedures for using leaf and powdered gelatine – how do these differ?
(Tick the correctbox indicating true or false)
True False
Gelatine is a setting agent made from animal bones and skins. It can be T
bought in sheets or powder form.
The powder is easier to work with but is more expensive. F

Gelatine comes in different sheet weights (gold, silver, bronze, etc.), with F
varying setting strengths, indicating how much liquid can be set by a
certainamount of the gelatine.
Setting strengths anddescriptions vary between products so it essential to T
test each product yourself before using it.
Gelatine leaves should be soaked in hot water, removed from the liquid F
and immediately transferredto the desired product.
If you add dissolved gelatine to a cold mixture it can form rubbery strands T

Page 37 of 49
or lumps rather than a smooth mixture so it is advisable to “temper” the
gelatine first by adding a small amount of the final product, e.g. cheese
cream, to it and then mixing it through.

Question 15:
Match the thickeningagents tothe correctproperties and descriptions for use:
Agar-agar 3 Can be boiled with fruit juice or liquids and will set once cooled
down, however they will not dissolve completely.
Acacia or Gum 6 Is a setting agent extracted from citrus fruit and apple pomace (fruit
Arabica cell walls). It is used in the production of jams and jellie
Sago and 1 Is a gum that can be used as a vegetarian alternative to gelatine. It
Tapioca is produced from seaweed and will set without refrigeration.
Cornflour, 7 Is a cooked mixture of flour and butter usually in a ratio of 1:1. It is
arrowrootand the thickeningagent for some sauces.
other starches 2 
Pectin Set twice theirown weight and form the thickeningagent in Anglaise
4 sauce.
Roux Is an exudation (sap) of the African acaciatree used as a stabiliser,
5 thickener, surface finishing agent and humectant (attracts moisture)
Egg yolks Are diluted and added to a hot liquid for thickening. Consider the
temperature requirements for the different types of starches.

Question 16:
Desserts featured on modern menus often feature a combination of classifications and
techniques. What does this trend entail? (Tick the correctanswers)
The chef creates dishes that have severalcomponents on two or more plates to F
highlight the texture and flavourcontrasts.
It is important to consider the balance of final dish and emphasis should be placed T
on either harmony or contrasts of textures and flavours.
In fine dining a dessert is an elaborate individual item but in a simpler restaurant F
it could be a piece of homemade cake with some cream or ice cream on the side.
The complexity and presentation of a dessert depends on the clientele and T
market, your price structures and seasonal produce.

Question 17:
Match the dessert made from choux paste to the key features:
Éclairs 2 These can be served individually as desserts or be used to create a
croquem bouche; Ensure they are baked through before removing from
the oven; fill and dust liberally with icing sugar or coat with chocolate.
Profiteroles This classical French dessertis used during all service periods; Ensure
that these are baked through before removing from the oven; Glaze
1 and fill with Crème Diplomat and/or Chantilly and plate with a
suitable sauce
GâteauSt. 3 This cake is named for the patron saint of bakers and pastry chefs.
Honoré Dock the puff paste base and place the profiteroles so that there is 1
profiterole per slice; fill with crème chibouste and garnish with spun
sugar

Question 18:
Match the dessertto the typical features:

Page 38 of 49
Japonaise 3 This elaboratedessertcan be used to showcase your skills temper
with Berry the gelatine with part of the raspberry pulp mixture to ensure even
Mousse setting; serve with Chantilly cream, mint leaves and fresh
raspberries on the side
Flourless This cake is suitable for gluten freediets; it is important to
Chocolate aerate both the egg yolk andegg white mixtures, then fold in the
Cake 2 other ingredients; coat with ganache and serve with Anglaise and
fresh berries for colour
Raspberry This meringue mixture is enriched with ground nuts; pipe the
Mousse mixture in a circle; fix the base layer on a plate with cream. Pipe the
Gâteau 1 berry mousse on, add some blueberries, then top with another
Japonaise disc and sprinkle with nougat or dustwith icing sugar

Question 19:
Match the batter or egg based desserts to the correct descriptions:
Palats 2 This dish is a traditional harvest dish using seasonal fruit; due to the
chinken high moisture content of the fruit you must ensure that the batter is
baked through; dust with icing sugar and serve in the baking dish
Crêpes This Austro-Hungarian speciality is similarto crêpes and must be
Suzette 4  rolled in the pan to create a thin product and is cooked with low
heat toavoid colouring; They are traditionally filled with powidl,
a strong plum jam.
Apple Fritters can be made by covering any fruit with batter and deep-
3
Fritters frying it; for a lighter batter, separate the eggs and whip the
whites before foldingthrough the rest of the batter; serve with
apricot or Anglaise sauce and ice cream
Clafoutis 1 Traditionally a guéridon dessert flambéed in front of the guest; Mise
Limousin en place is very important for a smooth workflow; serve with
vanilla ice cream and cream on the side

Question 20:
Match the desserts to their key features:
Panna Cotta 2 This is a classical French dessert, despite its name; to avoid
separation, the milk mixture must be just starting to set before you
fold under the cream; it can be set in a dariole mould and turned
out or served in a cocktail glass
Bavarian The name means “cooked cream” in Italian and is set using gelatine;
Cream 1 it is easy to prepare but to prevent the mixture from separating it
(Crème should be set quicklywith ice; serve with pineapple compote
Bavarois)

Crème 3 This deceptively simple dessert requires some skill to make well; do
Caramel not burn the toffee; The heat must be controlled so that the custard
does not soufflé and create air bubbles; turn out and garnish with
cream, filigreeand fruit.

Question 21:
Uses of fruit for various dessert applications could include:
True False

Page 39 of 49
Leftover or small amounts of fruit can be cut into a macédoine of fruit and F
served in coupes with ice cream such as a Coupe Jacques in which the fruit
is topped with lemon and strawberry ice.
Leftover fruit can be puréedand used it in sorbet. T

Stewing is used for harder fruit such as rhubarb, quinces and apples. The T
stewed fruit can be made into compotes or puréedand used for the
traditional English fools.
Fruit compote and preserved fruit enable us to use fruit in its prime and T
preserve it for menu choices all year around. Fruit purée is also used in
coulis, as partof ices or bavarois.
Poaching fresh fruit such as tamarillo and pear allows us to highlight F
some of the flavours with the careful use of spices. The poaching liquor
used provides flavouror colour such as in a pear in red wine sauce.
Slow poaching is popular with guéridon cooking whereas flambéed fruit is T
popular with back-of-house cooking.
Bananas, raspberries, figs or apple slices are given extra menu appeal T
once the flambéed fruit is served with ice cream and double cream.

Question 22:
Risk factors which must be considered when producing and storing frozen desserts
include:(Tick the correctanswers)
The main concern with frozen sweets is the danger of contamination. F

Dairy products are susceptible to contamination and that is why milk is pasteurised, T
i.e. heated above 70°C to kill all bacteria.
Make sure that the ice cream machine is cleaned properly, particularly any T
components that have openings where leftovers can accumulate.
The eggs used in an Anglaise base also need to be safe and returned to the heat for T
hygiene reasons as well as thickened for consistency, also.
Once the Anglaise mixture has been chilled, add it to the ice cream machine and F
churn it until it sets. Any contamination that occurs afterwards cannot becontrolled.
Fingers must not be used to taste items or remove ice creams from the machine. T

Always use the same spoon each time when testing the final product to prevent F
cross-contamination.
Store delicate frozen desserts at -12°C. F

Question 23:
Match the category of ices to the correct description:
Ice Cream 3 This is a mixture of a dairy base with fruit purees. It is important to
add the fruit puree once the Anglaise has cooled. This has two
advantages: firstly it retains the
Freshness of flavourwithout “cooking it” and secondly it retains
the colour. For yoghurt fruit varieties add 250g of fruit pulp to the
basic recipe.
Fruit Ice This is refreshing and adds lightness and clear flavours to adish. If
Cream 1 you have too much sugar the ice will be soft, whilst hard ice requires

Page 40 of 49
more sugar. Egg white can be added as a stabiliser, gelatine or
glucose to prevent the formation of large ice crystals and to make the
ice slightly sticky as you will notice in Italian Gelato.
Fruit-Based These mostly use an Anglaise base with milk. For a richer ice cream
Ice including 2 part of the milk is replaced with cream, usually between 30-50%.
Gelato, Sorbet Use lower fat cream otherwise it can form a fatty layer at the roof
and Granita of your mouth. Other varieties within this category use buttermilk,
yoghurt or fresh cheeses, such as Mascarpone or for a different
flavour, even Brie or a light blue vein cheese.

Question 24:
Match the frozen Dessert with the correct features:
Iced Orange 2 This is a perfect refreshing dessertthat highlights seasonalproduce.
Parfait Grand The ratio of fruit to stock syrup is normally 5:4 but can be altered
Marnie depending on the sweetness of the fruit. Dust with icing sugar
Iced Orange Parfaits are ice creams that do not require churning as the eggs and
Soufflé whipped cream provide a smooth consistency. They are usually set
3 in terrine moulds or ramekins. Take care not to coagulate the egg
yolks when mixing. Maintain the aeration of the meringue and
whipped cream when foldingtogether. Garnish with fresh berries,
orangesegments and strawberry coulis.
Tropical This parfait mixture is set in a collared ramekin to provide the
Fruit Salad appearance of a risen soufflé. The moulds must be filled to a
with Melon consistent height and must be completely frozen before removing
Sorbet 1 the collar. Dust with cocoa and serve.

Question 25:
What is the basic method for preparing Conde rice? Which ratio is used as a guideline?
True or
False
Rice for sweets needs to be glutinous and absorb the liquid used T

Long grain rice is mainly used as it swells and breaks up, providing excellent F
glutinous texture.
For short grain rice a ratio of 1 rice : 7 liquid applies. T

For conde rice, boil the milk with sugar and lemon zest, rain in the rice and T
bring to the boil. Stir, place a cartouche on top and put into a medium oven
until the liquid is absorbed.
Condé rice must be cooked very quickly at high heat to prevent the rice F
breaking down too much.
Once the rice is cooked, fold through some whipped cream to lighten the T
mixture, then portion.
Condé rice is traditionally topped with poached fruit and the dish is named T
after the fruit used e.g. Pear Condé or Apricots Condé.
The fruit is coated with apricot glaze. Condé can be served warm or cold. T

Page 41 of 49
Question 26:
Connect the type of dessertto the correctdescription:
Flummery Is used for semolina-based desserts. It can be served hot or set with
cream and gelatine. In general it is cooked similarly to a
2 pudding where the milk is boiled with sugar and lemon zest, then the
semolina is rained in. Bring to the boil and once the mixture
thickens remove and cool. Fold in egg yolks and egg whites and place
into moulds and cook au bain-marie.
3
Grütze Is cooked in fruit syrup and sugar until translucent, and then cooled
to room temperature.Set in a mould and serve with fruit.
Sago and 1 Is a German and Scandinavian speciality based on this principle that
Coconut uses tapioca or sago to thicken stewed fruit. The fruit used is usually a
Pudding concoction of berries or plums and cherries. Boil the fruit juice
with Spiced with sugar and the tapioca. Once it goes glassy and thickens, add the
Kumquats fruit. Portion the cooked mixture in glasses and serve chilled with
King Island cream or Anglaise sauce. These sweets are suitable for
strict vegetarian diets, as vegetarians would not eat gelatine
products. They are also useful for the coeliac diet.

Question 27:
What are the key processes for tempering chocolate?
True or
False
Tempering is a method of crystallising cocoa butter in a stable form in the F
fluid chocolate mass.
It achieves a smooth finish with a high gloss and even colouring with no bloom. T

The process of tempering consists of heating the chocolate evenly to 55°C to F


boil off processing impurities.
The “Tablier” or Tabling Method involves spreading ¾ of the chocolate onto T
a marble slab, scraping the chocolate until cooled to 28°C, then recombining
all the chocolate and warming to 32°C for use.
The vaccination method involves heating the chocolate then adding finely F
chopped, shaved or grated chocolate (seeding) until the temperature falls to
below 32°C and signs of thickening occur.

Question 28:
The following general rules must be considered when producing desserts for religious
diets: (Tick the correctanswers)
Gelatine derived from pork must not be used in any dishes for followers T
of Islam and Judaism
All dairy products are halal regardless of processing and can therefore be used F
for the preparation of desserts for followers of Islam.
Alternatives for dairy products used when producing desserts for followers of T
Judaism include parve whip and parve milk powder which are produced
from non-dairy ingredients
Buddhist and Seventh Day Adventists avoid alcohol and this should be T
considered when preparing desserts for these groups.
When preparing desserts for Hindus, no gelatine derived from beef must be used. T

Page 42 of 49
When preparing dishes for Muslims, no alcohol may be used, and all dishes T
which use alcohol in the production stagestherefore should be specified.

Question 29:
You have a recipe for Vanilla Bavarois with Cocoa Sauce and Raspberry Coulis. Match
the vegetarian diet to the relevant modification requirements for this recipe:
Vegan 3 Omit milk and cream in the Bavarois and cocoa sauce.
Replace with soy or rice milk.
Lacto vegetarian 1 Omit gelatine and use agar agar.
Ovo vegetarian Produce a set dessertusing soy or rice milk and agar, as
4 eggs, milk, cream andgelatine cannot be used. Substitute
milk in cocoa sauce.
Ovo-lacto 2 Omit eggs andgelatine. Use agar instead. This will make
vegetarian the product more like a panna cotta.

Question 30:
Match the dietary consideration to the relevant options for ingredient substitutions:
Gluten-free 4 Soy, almond, rice and coconut milk
Soy yogurt, coconut milk, non-dairy whipped topping
Egg allergy/ 2  Powdered egg substitute, tofu, thick fruit or
Lacto vegetable purées
vegetarian
Lactose-free 1 Fruit purées, stevia, sugar replacers, artificial sweeteners

Nut allergies 6 Flours: legume, brown rice, buckwheat, coconut, corn, potato,
tapioca, white rice, all-purpose gluten-free flour
Low-sugar 3 Plant oils: olive, safflower, canola Trans fat free margarines
Fruit purées
Low-fat 5 Dried fruit
Sesame, flax or sunflower seeds

Question 31:
Which nutritional aspects relatedto desserts should be considered
to provide healthy desserts?
True or
False
Yoghurt and buttermilk, skim milk and goats’ milk aren good low- T
fat alternatives that you may want to use.
Polyunsaturated fats can be used instead of butter but they will change T
the final taste.
It is preferable to use artificial sweeteners instead of honey or fresh fruit as a F
sweetener.
Stevia is a natural alternative for use a natural low energy sweetener. T

The use of various types of flour in baked goods contributes to the dietary T
fibre intake, particularly with wholegrain and other flours containing
bran or the husk of cereals.
The addition of bran or other dietaryfibre to white flour F

Page 43 of 49
helps with digestion and promotes a healthier diet.

Question 32:
The following guidelines need to be considered to assist with
portion sizes for desserts: (Tick the correctanswers)
Serving size depends on the enterprise and location. In the country you often serve T
larger portions and more hearty desserts.
For degustation menus you have small portions with interesting variations or T
flavours.
On average a finished dessert serving is 300-350g for the main item e.g. F
Bavarian cream.
Ice cream varies between 100-200g depending on the type of ice cream and its F
accompaniments.
Using a total serving size of 750-1000g fora 3-course meal or degustation is useful T
for judging the size of individual portions sizes.
Decorations such as a pastry tulip, chocolate curl, whipped cream F
and strawberry will add to the total weight and volume.
Providing a detailed guideline, e.g. cut a 20cm GateauPithiviers into 12 equal T
portions, use a 150mL ramekin; can assist other staff that may not
have the routine of the experienced dessertchef.

Question 33:
The following general guidelines should be considered foreffective and hygienic
presentation of desserts: (Tick the correctanswers)
All perishable commodities must be refrigerated at 1-4°C so that they T
appearat the best possible quality, on the plate
Cold food should be served at room temperature F
Hot food should be served hot, on room temperature plates T
Try not to use more than 60% of the plate’s surface. The rim of the T
plate is the frame of the dish – keep it spotless!
Use ladles and spoons for portion control T

Use a smallplate to catch drips and spills while plating, to T


prevent them landing on the service plate
Use utensils such as plastic rings, timbales, cups and ice T
cream scoops to help with presentation and portion control
Remove spills with a cleancloth or tissue – if the plate does not getclean T
then plate it again using better technique

Question 34:
Match the factors that impacton presentation to the examples of
how they can be considered in a plated dish:
Colour 2 Form chocolate curls to add to ice cream and desserts, bake
rum baba in a timbale and garnish the top with fresh fruit
for extra height
Texture 4 Use fresh fruit or coulis and sauces to add colour accents
contrasts

Page 44 of 49
Flavour 6 Passionfruit parfait served ona chilled plate, Berry and
combinations Mango tartlet on room temperature plate
Height 1 Use crumble on top of a fruit filling, wafers with ice
cream, sesame seed wafers with brûlée
Temperature 3 Use a variety, e.g. round blueberries, cone shaped raspberries
and half circles of pineapple
Shapes and 5 Chocolate Bavarois with raspberry coulis, hazelnut pudding
proportions with cocoa sauce

Question 35:
Economic and hygiene aspects which must be considered when
handling and storingdesserts and ingredients used for desserts include:
True or
False
Cakes can have a longer shelf life than yeast goods. With a cream T
gateau, you may want to cut it in half before dressing it and
freeze one half for later use.
Sweets often need to be stored in the fridge or cool room separated from T
other foods, particularly strong smelling items.
Hygienic handline is extremely important for preventingcross-contamination. T

In the production of sensitive items such as ice cream, absolute adherence to T


clean work practices is essential as dairy products canvery easily be cross
contaminated.
To reduce the risk of Salmonella poisoning from ice cream you should make F
all frozen products by hand.
Sauces should always be stored in sealed labelled containers or temperature T
controlled during service such as a bain-marie or chilled cabinet.
All items in storage must be appropriately covered and bear a label stating T
details of contents, the production date and name of the person responsible.
Consider correct handling of high risk items containing dairy during T
processing and storage.

Question 36:
It is essential to ensure the specific dietary requirements for customerswith special diets
are considered carefully to prevent potentially serious health implications and possible legal
consequences as a result. Match the intolerances to the likely implications:
Gluten 2 The proteins the whites cancause immune reactions, particularly
in children. Severe reactions can result in anaphylaxis
MSG 5 Intolerance of this and Coeliac disease are intestinal disorders in
which the body reacts badly to gluten, a protein component in
grains such as wheat, rye and barley.
Nuts 7 A compound found naturally in some foods, suchas tomatoes, as
well as processed items such as cheese and wine. Stomach reactions,
migraines and anaphylaxis can occur as a result of histamine
intolerance
Eggs 1 consumption by those with intolerance can create gas, which can
cause abdominal pains, cramps and other symptoms.
Lactose 4 monosodium glutamate is a flavour enhancer which can cause a

Page 45 of 49
sensitivity reaction.
Salicylates 6 Natural plant hormones, which are found especially in the skins of
vegetables and fruit, as well as spices can provoke a range of
reactions, including stomach problems
Histamine 3 Consumption of these can cause severe reactions which can result
in anaphylactic shock. If not treated quickly and correctly,
anaphylactic shock can result in death!

Question 37:
What are therequirements to ensure a clean workspace during preparation and service
of desserts, and at the end ofa shift? (Tick the correctanswers)
In addition to storingleftovers and off-cuts correctly, it isalso important to T
maintain your work area.
Throughout your shift you should do regular “tidy up” procedures as you T
move between tasks.
Hygiene is crucial, so make sure you keep the work areas very clean and tidy. T
Keep utensils separate from each other and makes sure you do not cross
contaminate your items.
You need to clean your work area when changing tasks .For example if you are T
working with raw eggs and then change to preparing a cream filling, you must
clean and sanitise surfaces and equipment in between!
At the end of your shift you will need to conduct a morethorough clean of all T
your work surfaces, such as benches and shelves.
When cleaning at the end of a shift you need to remove all food particles, apply F
a sanitiser, clean all surfaces with hot soapy water, thenrinse and wipe each
area with paper towel.
You will also need to clean stovetops, the oven, walls, floors, cupboards and T
other parts of the kitchen and service area.
