The Technology Clinic Center at the Institute of Research and Development, Rajamangala University of Technology Phra Nakhon (RMUTP), organized the 4th Technology Consultation and Information Service Project. This event featured lectures and hands-on training on macaron and timber ring production techniques, with honored guest speakers Ms. Intheema Hiranyakorn and Ms. Sasithorn Pomchiangpin, both instructors from the Faculty of Home Economics Technology. The event took place at the Faculty of Home Economics Technology (Chotiwet Campus) on June 14, 2024, and was attended by 20 participants.
Asst. Prof. Dr. Chantana Papattha, Deputy Director of Academic Services and Deputy Director of of Institute of Research and Development, Rajamangala University of Technology Phra Nakhon, stated that the department aims to transfer knowledge and elevate communities, community enterprises, and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). This is achieved by disseminating research, inventions, innovations, and technologies in which the university has expertise through academic services. Each year, the university organizes vocational training for communities and interested members of the public, enabling them to earn supplementary income. Before each training session, the needs of the community and current trends are surveyed to ensure that participants gain new knowledge that can be applied to develop their careers.
Ms. Kittiya Wongkheung, currently the owner of Kittiya Bakery in Nakhon Pathom, shared that she has been running her bakery for over 8 years, offering a wide variety of products. The bakery’s highlight is its fresh, made-to-order young coconut pastries. However, with changing consumer trends that emphasize convenience, delicious flavors, attractive presentation, and healthy ingredients, the competition in the market has increased. To ensure the continuous development of her bakery and to expand the menu to meet customer demands, she is interested in improving her skills. She recently attended training on making macarons and timber rings, which are popular and trending on social media. The training provided her with extensive knowledge and techniques, including how to select ingredients that produce different textures and flavors, and how to choose health-conscious, natural ingredients without synthetic additives or preservatives. Implementing these techniques is expected to help attract new customer bases.
