artistic and delicate shapes can be made in creative design teaching on site,
standard sizes should be specified for some necessary types of objects, in
order to provide guidance for students and teach them techniques. It can be found
that many technical tutors fail to teach students the quantitative characteristics
of mathematics in making a jelly flower. As a result, it is difficult for
novices to select accurate types of flower needles, and to know that different
flower buds and petals should be created by injecting liquid concoctions with
different and precise angles, depths, and sizes. Petals in different lengths
should also be designed for tutors to teach students techniques with precise information. As no flower needles or concoction
ratios similar to those mentioned above are provided in films, teaching
files, or books, it is necessary to teach
the flower piping with different angles, lengths, depths. This study aims
to provide students with accurate numbers and angles that follow the technical
steps and methods to design and make delicate floral jelly cakes, as well as the use of various quantitative characteristics
with explanations through graphs and text. The results of this study
provide novices with the required techniques to make these cakes. This study
can help tutors learn from examples and engage in teaching suitable and
scientific techniques, and its result can be
taken as the basis for the development of a professional teaching course
in making floral jelly cakes.
