1. Sweet Problem Based Learning Reverse engineering Custom Cupcakes

2. What is Reverse Engineering to disassemble and examine or analyze in detail (as a product or device) to discover the concepts involved in manufacture usually in order to produce something similar. http://www.merriam-webster.com

3. Why Reverse Engineer Products To understand it better To see inside to satisfy your curiosity: How does it work? To examine the structure, function, operation To duplicate or improve it: Reduce the cost, improve the materials, reduce environmental impact, etc. Increase its efficiency and reliability, add features and usefulness, etc.
