As part of our Maths reasoning, we used a £20 budget to make mars bar cake for our class. We went shopping for the ingredients and worked out which shop was providing us with best value for money. We saved £6:80 by shopping at Herons! We then used weighing scales to make and follow a delicious cake recipe.
