Foreword BY MEG RAY Owner of Miette

The cake I remember the most belonged to my brother Ross on his eighth birthday. My mother made all of our birthday cakes from scratch, and this one was glorious. It was angel food, baked in the traditional tube pan, so it was tall and grand and covered in fluffy, white, boiled icing. You could smell its sweetness. Parading around the top of the cake

13


were plastic safari animals and candles. It was displayed majestically on the birthday table, and all the children crowded around in awe. But as we were singing “Happy Birthday,” the candles started to melt the animals, and a toxic smoke tainted the air. Hurriedly, Ross blew out the candles, and we all ate our cake in hushed appreciation. In later years, whenever we played with the animals, the giraffe, with its flopped-over neck, would remind me of that splendid cake. Our mother made us other wonderful cakes, too. Buche de Noel at Christmas, croquenbouche 14

for New Year’s Eve, German chocolate cake, black forest cake, brownies, and cookies. I fell under the spell of baking at an early age and grew up to open a cake shop. It’s the best job in the world, and we make the most delicious desserts I can dream up: chocolate cake with whipped cream, apricot charlottes with fresh raspberries, coconut


sponge cakes, princess cakes with homemade jam and pastry cream. And yet, even though my days are filled with endless pastries, my favorite cakes are those in my memory. It seems that the most delicious tastes and smells reside somewhere in our nostalgia. This book is a collection of cake memories from the student writers in the after-school program at 826 Valencia, an organization dedicated to improving the writing skills of young people and getting teachers excited about the literary arts. The stories recount birthdays, recipes, happy times, and topsyturvy imaginary cakes. I was introduced to 826 Valencia several years ago through my friend Mary Schaefer. I was delighted by the creativity and enthusiasm that radiates from the organization, which is tucked away behind a pirate store no less. During the after-school program, the students arrive with their

15


homework and imaginations and are tutored with the guidance of dedicated volunteers. 826 Valencia prevails with joy and wit and the unshakable belief that we all have a story to tell and a unique voice with which to tell it. I support this belief, as someone who loves to read and who finds great companionship in novels. Without writers, my life would certainly be bleak. And thus, it’s my hope that we continue to produce writers and poets and a society that values their art. The proceeds of this book go to support 826 Valencia and their mission to cultivate a community of literary enthusiasts. 16

Miette has been making artisanal cakes and sweets in San Francisco since 2001. miette.com




Ode to Cake BY JOREL MATAMOROS age 13

Oh cake, where would the world be without you? Slice of cake, if I look at you from the side, you look like a bunch of

19


books stacked on top of each other. Cake, you smell like flowers, lemons, and maybe even expensive 20

perfume.


My Brother’s Birthday BY SOFIA MARQUEZ age 8

The best cake I ever ate was on my brother’s birthday. I liked it because I got a cookie on my piece. I was seven years old. The frosting was white, and it had strawberries covered with chocolate and mango. It was three feet tall, and my mom made it. This was a year ago. The cake had a “one” candle and an “eight” candle. I was happy because my brother was leaving for college, and I would have the house to myself. And also he wouldn’t bother me and ask me if I could go get him stuff.

21


Dear Delicious Candy Cake BY BRIANNA GALVEZ age 9

You are delicious. You are three feet tall and shaped like a cone with lollipops on each side that are colored like a round rainbow. The bottom of you is red. The next color above that is orange. The next color above that is blue. The next color above that is 22

purple. You are filled with chocolate caramel, Jolly Ranchers, milk chocolate, Airheads, Nerds, gummy Life Savers, peppermints, and doughnuts. The outside of you is white candy bread.


Fancy BY BIRIDIANA SANCHEZ age 7

When it was my sister Yovana’s birthday, my parents and I celebrated with her. We got a cake with Oreos on top. It was so good that I wanted to eat it all. I got three slices. They were as white as snow and as fancy as a lady. At the party, there was a jumping room, and all the kids went inside and had fun. The party was over at dusk, and I felt sleepy!

23


I Will Share This Cake BY YOVANA SANCHEZ age 9

My imaginary cake is chocolate with Oreos and four layers, and between the layers are chocolate frosting and strawberries. The top of the cake is blue with flowers. I will share this cake with my family. 24


My Cousin’s Cake BY AARON BARAHONA age 12

One day when I was seven years old, I was playing video games. Then my cousin showed up with this cake. It was a small cake, and I said, “Whose cake is that?” He said, “It’s for us. Here’s a piece.” So I tasted it, and it was sour, smelly, and tasted gross, like it had too many limes. He tricked me! The next day I brought him a cupcake that I made with dirt, cat litter, baking soda, vinegar, and a moth. It tasted worse than the cake he brought me.

25


Angelicake BY ANGELICA GUZMAN age 11

My imaginary cake is a cake that looks like me. This cake is called Angelicake. It is made out of strawberry ice cream. It looks exactly like me, and it is my size. My imaginary cake can talk and walk. It is also made by me. This cake is really special. 26


You’re Beautiful BY FERNANDO CAMPOS age 13

You’re beautiful like me, cake. You’re really divine. I wish you were mine. You’re sweet like cotton candy. I love you, beautiful like the sky, tasty as chocolate, smart like BART. You’re fluffy like the clouds. You’re cute like a Bluetooth.

27


Four Stars BY SUDHA REYNOLDS age 13

During the second week of summer, I went to a cooking camp. I think it was Wednesday that my group and I made a cake, and I’m not sure how we made it or the ingredients we used, but it was a red velvet cake. We made two layers, stacking them on 28

top of each other. The end result was fine. We neatly slid the icing on all sides, all over. We put icing in the middle of the layers so they’d stick, and we put it on the top. I designed the top design, trying to do a valley at sunrise with hills. The average rating that other groups gave our cake was four stars.


Nine Layers BY PETRA CARDOSO age 10

Chocolate cake is delicious and nutritious. It has vitamins for my body, and it makes me hearty! Sometimes the frosting gets on my face, but I don’t mind. My ultimate imaginary chocolate cake would have nine layers. The first would be chocolate, the second would be vanilla, the third mint, the fourth strawberry, the fifth milk chocolate, the sixth dark chocolate, the seventh banana, the eighth peach, and the ninth pear. The layers all would have sprinkles, M&Ms, and Gummi Bears.

29


It would be big like the sky. Everybody would like it, and no one would want to eat anything else, only cake!

30


As Light As Flour BY MELODY RUELAS age 9

The best cake I have ever had was at my friend Lesther’s birthday. I think he was turning nine, and the party was in the classroom. The cake was covered in white frosting and had red and blue balloons. We sang “Happy Birthday,” and then he blew out the candles. When I got my piece and took my first bite, I thought it was delicious. I liked the taste—as red as cherries or strawberries, as light as flour—it was the flavor red velvet. And it was the first time I had that flavor. But my slice of cake didn’t have a balloon, only white frosting.

31


CAKE BY AMY RAMIREZ age 10

C ake is delicious. There are so many types. A pples shouldn’t be in cakes. That’s not good. K illing a cake is like eating a cake. E veryone sometimes likes cake. 32


The Tuxedo Cake BY VALERIA VARELA-ROMO age 14

When I turned thirteen, my uncle took me to eat at the San Francisco Cheesecake Factory. It was so elegant! I ordered dinner, and it was alfredo pasta. Afterward, I got to choose what cake I wanted, and I couldn’t decide. I just skimmed through, and then I saw a cake called Chocolate Mousse Tuxedo Cake. Yum! I decided to order it. The waiter gave it to me, and it made me feel like I was in heaven when I ate it. It made me feel so sophisticated and complete, like I was truly becoming a teenager. The part I remember the most was when the staff came and sang “Happy Birthday” to me.

33


Creamy the Cupcake BY ARKANGEL MAGANA age 13

Once upon a time, a cupcake named Creamy lived in a box. Her greatest wish was to become a cake. But the evil cookie put special sprinkles on her that she couldn’t do anything about forever unless she was eaten by somebody’s stomach. So one day 34

I came into the shop without knowing there was a cupcake with a spell on it. I picked that one, and I ended up eating it, and it was the best cupcake I ever ate.


Happy Birthday, Camila BY CAMILA GOMEZ age 8

One birthday, my dad bought the best cake ever. It was vanilla and had vanilla frosting. I tasted a little piece, and it tasted like vanilla ice cream on a hot day in Vacaville. It had little flowers, and it said “Happy Birthday, Camila.� I was surprised and hugged my mom and dad. It was my seventh birthday. I remember this cake so well because my dad knows what my favorite flavor is. He bought it at my favorite bakery, called Bakery Flower. Another time there I saw an ice cream cake. I asked my dad if I could have it if I did well on my test, and he said yes.

35


When I Was Going to Take a Bite BY ALEXANDER MUテ前Z age 12

When I was small, I had a cake for my birthday. I stared at the cake. When I was going to take a bite, they pushed my face into the cake. It was really good. Afterward, I opened presents and ate more cake. 36


Divine Cake Is All Mine BY CITLALLI AGUILAR age 11

When I opened my eyes and took my breath, I saw light about the colorful cake. When I took my spoon and ate a piece, that piece was sweet! When I looked at it, I stared, and when I saw it, ice cream was mine. Blue and red icing was mine, with vanilla ice cream in my mouth, I swallowed, and I chewed it. When it was in my tummy, divine cake was all mine.

37


One Gulp BY RONALDO RODRIGUEZ age 7

When it was my birthday, I ate the best cake I have ever eaten. I could have eaten all of it in one gulp, but I didn’t. My cake had candles and vanilla frosting. The cake was not old. My dad brought it home while I was at school. I felt good when I saw my dad 38

holding the cake.


One of My Favorite Days BY ALEJANDRA SANCHEZ age 11

Once my mom bought cake, and it was great. It had chocolate ice cream and vanilla ice cream. I had it with milk. It had to be one of my favorite days. I was at the park. That was fun. 39


Two Cakes BY ANDREA RAMOS age 9

One time my grandma made me a birthday cake. It was chocolate with white frosting. It was the best cake ever. The next day, my mom ate the last piece of my birthday cake, and I did not talk to my mom for one hour. At 3:00 PM, my grandma said, “Let’s 40

make a new little cake for you.” I said, “Okay.” Then we made the new cake. When we were done, I ate it. The second cake was chocolate. It had white frosting, and it had blue, red, yellow, purple, and pink sprinkles.


Tinkerbell BY KAROLINA OCHOA age 8

I remember having a Tinkerbell marshmallow cake when I turned six. I liked the marshmallows because they were sweet, soft, and squishy. I liked the fruits, like strawberries and melons, because they were so healthy and sour. The whole thing was so yummy, and it tasted sweet like candy. The recipe for my cake is marshmallows, melons, strawberries, mango, bread, sugar, and flour. And that’s how you make my delicious cake! You bake it for fifteen minutes.

41


Because It Is Soft and Chewy BY DIANA PEREZ age 13

My favorite cake is chocolate because it is soft and chewy. On my last birthday, I had a huge chocolate cake and celebrated with my family. It was the best cake ever, and it was very different than others. It was definitely very memorable. 42


The Heart Cake BY ROCĂ?O CARDOSO age 8

My ultimate imaginary cake would be banana- and chocolate-flavored. The cake would be pink and yellow. The top would have sparkles, M&Ms, icing, Gummi Worms, and little pieces of chocolate. My cake would be in the shape of a heart, and it would be as tall as a house.

43


Ten Years BY ALEXIS MIRANDA age 10

My favorite type of cake is chocolate crunch. I like it because it has a good texture and flavor. I had it for my birthday this month. It had red icing, and it was small but satisfying. I accomplished ten years! The cake said, “Happy Birthday!� 44


Rainforest Cake BY VANESSA PEREZ age 7

If I had an imaginary cake, it would have a cherry on top, and the color would be pink, with little candies and blueberries. My imaginary cake would live in the rainforest. My imaginary cake would like to eat candy. 45


A Cupcake Named Tee BY MILDRED DZIB age 11

The cupcake named Tee is well behaved because she learns in schools and plays at recess time. Tee is pink like a pink rose and has frosting 46

with blue sprinkles. Her school is all pink and blue, so she will never be eaten because she blends in.


We Also Had a Piñata BY ALEX GOMEZ age 8

My best cake was when I was six. It tasted like strawberries and chocolate. It was as good as a water fight, and we had it on my dad’s birthday. We also had a piñata. 47


I Remember BY JOSH RAMIREZ age 13

I remember when it was my sister Amy’s birthday, and it was cake time. I ate almost all the cake and then covered it up. So instead we got cupcakes for everyone. I remember the first cake I had was tres leches. 48

It smelled like ice cream and looked soft and good. It was the best cake I ever had.


Different Shapes and Pictures BY SAMANTHA MATAMOROS age 9

Cakes are made with bread and dough. My favorite cake is vanilla ice cream cake. Cakes have different types of designs and flavors. When I was seven, I got two cakes. They were tasty. They were filled with different colors. Cakes can be in different shapes and have different pictures on them.

49


Frostimus Prime BY KENNY DZIB age 12

It was Monday afternoon and very cloudy in San Francisco. In Mr. Tuomey’s garage, he was designing a cupcake with organic ingredients that would be the best cupcake in San Francisco. But then he mistook plutonium for flour and mixed it in. The 50

cupcake transformed into a cybernetic cupcake that had chocolate Rice Krispies sharp enough to cut the hardest cookie and frosting cannons that could fix any cake-frosting problems. He was assigned to secure all cakes that were delicious. This cupcake was called Frostimus Prime.


Tres Leches BY MARIANNA RAMOS age 7

Cakes make me happy. I eat them when I am hungry. One day I helped my cousin make a cake. It was tres leches. That’s my cake. We buy it for birthdays. It’s made with three milks, and they are regular milk, evaporated milk, and condensed milk. This cake also has bread, sugar, eggs, and flour. It’s good. It tastes like milk. It smells like caramel. I had it at my birthday, and I blew out my candles. It was decorated with strawberries and whipped cream.

51


How to Love BY DAVID MUÑOZ age 12

There once was a cake that learned how to love. The cake’s name was Max. Max was a purple cake, and he liked this girl named Jenny. She was a green cake. She didn’t like Max. She liked a cupcake named Mike. Mike was a small cupcake, but 52

he was mean to people.


Filled With Happiness BY EMILY MORALES age 12

Once I was going to a party, and when I got there I was filled with happiness. It was a great party. My friends were there, and we were as happy as can be. I never thought I could be so happy until they brought the cake, and I was so amazed. It was vanilla, and it was great. Best cake ever!

53


Chocolate Cake BY RACHELLE MEDINA age 8

On Saturday it was my cousin’s birthday, and we had chocolate cake. It tasted good. He turned eight.

54


The Worst Time to Get Cake BY MARCO PONCE age 13

I like cake. My favorite cake is tres leches. The worst time to get a cake is when you die. I like to go to Safeway to buy my cake. Tres leches cake is special to me because it has a lot of flavor. I also like it because of the three different milks. 55


A Time to Eat Cake BY TERRY OSCO age 15

When it’s someone’s birthday, when someone has recently died, when you’re celebrating something, like a graduation or a holiday, two weeks ago at the neighbor’s party, 56

when the cake says, “Eat me!”


How to Bake BY OSCAR TICAS age 10

One day I taught my family to bake a cake. It was hard, but it turned out to be pretty good. It was a chocolate cake, but it took a week! We got the recipe from a number-one chef. 57


Hyper BY ALEJANDRA MEDINA age 11

Today I feel like eating a cupcake. I really want to eat something sweet! But it’s going to make me hyper.

58


One of My Best Memories BY LIZETTE OCHOA age 10

On my birthday I got a cake that was tres leches. This cake was really sweet like candy. It had fruit, like strawberries, melons, and kiwis, and my dad brought it home. My sister Karolina put my face into the cake, and the visitors started laughing. My mom took a picture of me. This is one of my best memories so far.

59


Joseph and Laser Pop BY GUISEPPE PACHECO age 10

Part 1 Once upon a time, there was a cupcake named Joseph who lived in Bakery Land. His greatest wish was to be a cartoon character, but evil Laser Pop had other plans. 60

Part 2 Joseph, the cupcake, was fighting with Laser Pop, and a guy was recording the whole fight. Joseph defeated Laser Pop. Everybody was surprised. And the guy from Hollywood, who was recording, said that he could be a cartoon character. Joseph was happy.


Look for Joseph the cupcake in “The Return of Laser Pop,” coming soon!

61


Why We Don’t Bake BY FATIMA SANTOS age 10

My family doesn’t bake at all. I never found out why we don’t bake, but I would like to know the reason why we don’t. Once I had a dream that I made a cake shaped like a dog, and all my friends ate it and left me nothing. So I made one big huge cup62

cake just for my family, but this was in my dream.




About 826 Valencia

Our Mission 826 Valencia is a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting students ages six to eighteen with their creative and expository writing skills and to helping teachers inspire their students to write. Our work is based on the understanding that strong writing

65


skills are fundamental to future success and that great leaps in learning can be made when skilled tutors work one-on-one with students. How We Do It 826 Valencia consists of a writing lab in the Mission District of San Francisco (our name is our address), a student-friendly pirate supply store that partially funds our programs, and two satellite classrooms in nearby middle schools. More than 1,600 volunteers—including published authors, retired teachers, magazine founders, advertising copywriters, SAT66

course instructors, and every other occupation under the sun—donate their time to work with more than 6,000 Bay Area students each year. These incredible volunteers allow 826 Valencia to offer all its services for free. Students thrive when they receive one-on-one attention from trained and caring tutors, and they


work hard when they know that the community will read their writing. Our project-based approach allows students ownership over the learning process and empowers them to express themselves clearly, confidently, and in their own voices. Programs 826 Valencia offers a full schedule of free programs that reach students at every possible opportunity— in school, after school, in the evenings, and on the weekends. Here are a few of our most popular offerings: 67

IN-SCHOOL SUPPORT

We dispatch teams of volunteers into local highneeds schools to support teachers and provide oneon-one assistance to students as they tackle school newspapers or magazines, research papers, oral histories, college-entrance essays, and more. Our


in-school visits are a great way for us to support students who wouldn’t reach out for help on their own. FIELD TRIPS

Up to four times a week, 826 Valencia welcomes an entire class into its writing lab for a morning of high-energy learning. Students might participate in a roundtable discussion with a local author, enjoy an active workshop focused on journalism, or, in our most popular field trip, write an original story collectively and leave with their own bound books—all in two hours. 68

TUTORING

Five days a week, 826 Valencia buzzes with neighborhood students who come in after school and on Sundays for one-on-one tutoring in myriad subject areas. We serve students of all skill levels and interests.


WRITING WORKSHOPS

826 Valencia offers free workshops designed to foster creativity and strengthen writing skills. They focus on everything from cartooning to starting a ’zine. All our workshops—from the playful to the practical—are project-based and taught by experienced professionals. SUMMER PROGRAMS

During the summer, our tutoring program caters to elementary school students who are reading and writing below grade level. Our project-based curriculum focuses on boosting literacy skills and confidence over six weeks of activities. We also host a week-long writing workshop for high school students, in which participants write all day, every day, and work with celebrated authors and artists such as Michael Chabon, ZZ Packer, and Spike Jonze.

69


WRITERS’ ROOMS

Our Writers’ Rooms at Everett and James Lick Middle Schools are beautiful, in-school satellites where our volunteers serve every student in the school over the course of the year. These spaces allow teachers to reduce their class sizes and students to receive the one-on-one attention that leads to success. Student Publications From our various programs, 826 Valencia produces a variety of publications, each of which is filled 70

with student writing. These projects represent some of the most exciting work done at 826 Valencia, as they expose Bay Area students to publishing experiences otherwise largely unavailable to them. Each year we publish scores of chapbooks from workshops, field trips, and special projects with teachers and classrooms. We also collect this work into our student-edited 826 Quarterly at least twice a year.


The book you are holding is the first of its kind— a collaboration with our longtime and generous friend Meg Ray, who has made many an 826 event sweeter with her delightful treats from Miette. The Store at 826 Valencia In addition to being the home of our bustling tutoring center, 826 Valencia is also home to a bustling pirate supply store. In the store you can find peglegs, eyepatches, puffy shirts, striped shirts, lemons and limes, and possibly a monkey leash. You might also find Pensive Peter’s treasure buried under the floor. Or his bones. Or maybe his bones are his treasure? What is treasure? Is lard treasure? Where is my monkey? Do you have questions like these? Come to the pirate store and we can ask these questions together. Open 12–6 every day. 826valencia.org/store
