Thinking about math in relation to delicious baking is an ongoing project for Eugenia Cheng; Cheng is the scientist-in-residence at the Art Institute of Chicago where she teaches artists how math and creativity are constant companions. She has also written a book about this topic called How to Bake Pi.
Using creative techniques will make math easier to learn for most.
Cheng developed the connection between math and baking after teaching math to undergraduates who were not connecting to the subject. She sees associating math and cake as a good way to promote a warmer feeling about math, but she also delights in exploring how math and baking are similar as activities where we can learn principles and then apply them in fun experiments.
