Description

Introduce the Class of 2016 to ATS with some delicious shaved ice!


Materials

Budget: $80

Spent: CMart (??), Costco (??)


Food

  • 9 cans of fruit (probably should get larger cans) (bought 6 30oz, used all)
  • 6 cans lychee (used all)
  • 9 cans condensed milk (5 left)
  • 7 cans red bean paste (3 left)
  • 5 cans grass jelly [ไป™่‰ (xian1 cao3)] (2 left)
  • 5 cans aiyu jelly (made from the jell extruded from agitating aiyu fruit seeds) (1 left)
  • 5 cans coconut jelly (none left)


Other Stuff

  • 250-300 bowls
  • spoons
  • 2 shaved ice machines
  • extension cords, tape, paper towels, scissors
  • signup sheets + pen, yearbook, banner, shaved ice sign
  • 2 trash bags (1 for trash, 1 for recycling)


Notes

Logistical Improvements

  • poured condensed milk into squeeze bottle
  • cut jellies in pink bowl with plastic knives
  • double layer bowls and taped the down to the table
  • topping labels (got wet and scattered, but helped people name the toppings)
  • large metal bowl for extra juice
  • used scissors to cut lychees


Other Notes

  • gloves?
  • smaller ice scoop might be easier for adding ice to machines
  • only able to get about half a cooler of ice (and thus ran out) since McCormick East penthouse ice maker is smaller and downstairs one didn't have any, couldn't get ice from Johnson because no one is a varsity athlete...
  • maybe trash-bag or line the table for less mess
  • shaved ice sign got in the way (did it help to attract people?)
