Yes, because the clause, "After being baked in the oven for thirty minutes," doesn’t have an explicit subject<span>, although from the context you’d expect it to be food. The next words you see (‘<span> her guests were</span>’) are the subject of the sentence, but they clearly don’t match the preceding clause, because guests usually cannot eat cookies after being backed in the oven. </span>

Answer:

According to structure, this sentence is a COMPLEX SENTENCE.

According to function, this sentence is a DECLARATIVE SENTENCE.

Explanation:

This is a COMPLEX SENTENCE.

  • A complex sentence has one or more dependent clauses.

This is because the thought is complete. It has a subject and a predicate (the action or information about the subject). "The students are studying."

  • Due to the subordinating conjunctions, a dependent clause has both a subject and a predicate (before, although, since, when). "Because he is unprepared."

With the most votes, he garnered only 40% of the popular vote. It has one dependent clause and one independent clause.

  • Although he garnered the most votes,

He received around 40% of the vote.

This is a DECLARATIVE SENTENCE.

Statements are declarative. It's punctuated.

When a period finishes a declarative sentence, these criteria are met.
