Highlight home baking projects, school club involvement, or any volunteer experience. Focus on skills like following complex recipes, precise measurements, kitchen safety, time management, and a strong willingness to learn.

I would list you experience, even as a home baker and your expectations and what you w would be able to do immediately.

I would say your resume should reflect the depth of your interest and experience. So for example, maybe you've baked cookies for charity, learned about lamination techniques for making croissants and make them for your family, started a baking club at school. And maybe you're interested in developing your cake decorating skills. I work for a bakery and we have high school students do internships with us. I will say for those, students usually write letters instead of resumes, and explain a little bit about what they hope to gain from doing an internship in a bakery - what insights they think they might gain.

A 10th grader interested in baking should focus on skills, school activities, creativity, volunteering, and any hands-on experience — even small experiences matter. A beginner baking resume can include:
Objective or Career Goal
Example: “Passionate high school student interested in baking and pastry arts, eager to learn professional kitchen and bakery skills.”
Skills
Baking basics
Cake decorating
Creativity and presentation
Teamwork
Time management
Food hygiene and cleanliness
Customer service
Education
Include school name, grade level, and expected graduation year.
Experience
Even informal experience counts, such as:
Baking cakes or cookies at home
Helping in family business or kitchen
Selling baked goods at school events
Assisting at community or charity events
Activities & Achievements
Cooking or baking competitions
School clubs
Art or creative projects
Volunteer work
Certifications (if any)
Example: food safety workshop, baking short course, or hospitality training.
For culinary and baking careers, employers and institutes often value passion, creativity, discipline, cleanliness, and willingness to learn more than formal experience at this stage.
