Sweet Science Project – Baked Alaska
Here’s a really fun way to learn about science! We made baked Alaska and found out that the ice cream did not melt when we baked our treat in the oven. Here’s why: when you whisk eggs, air mixes in and creates tiny trapped bubbles. Heat does not easily pass through these trapped air bubbles. Both meringue and sponge cake have these bubbles, and they are known as insulators because they keep the ice cream from melting.
