London Custom Cakery London Custom Cakery is a small home-based business producing a variety of pies and cakes for special occasions. Four Fanshawe Culinary and Hospitality graduates (Mary. Nancy, Sandra and Julie) have formed this business a couple of years ago and their business has gained considerable local success. Aside from other regular orders that are completed and ready for pick-up, this week they have five very special wedding orders from five well-known families in the order and details shown in the following table: Concerned about their cooling system not working properly, the four partners argue about how these orders should be handled. Mary insists that the orders should be handled in the same order they have been received. Nancy argues that they should handle the orders that can be done faster first and then move to ones that take longer to be completed. Sandra insists they should finish orders that are due earlier. Listening to her partners arguments, Julie who is mature and experienced with business operations invited them to calm down and said: \"since we have other finished orders in the kitchen, we have room for limited number of jobs on the go. Wedding cakes are delicate and we need to have the space to do the ordered details. So I suggest we look at the average number of wedding jobs in the kitchen to decide whose suggestion would generate the best flow in the kitchen.\" The other partners agreed because they believed Julie speaks with operation experience. Whose suggestion (Mary's. Nancy's or Sandra's) do you pick and why? [15 marks]
