Master Chef in the making!!

Recently Antonina and I entered a cake competition and even though my entry didn't come anywhere my girl came....drum roll please.....FIRST in the children's fancy cakes section

She did everything herself from making to decorating and I'm sure many of you will appreciate that's not always an easy task for our kiddo's. Here are a few pictures:

That is so cool! Kids love to cook/bake (usually) and I'm so happy she did well. Maybe she can learn to make you dinner???

Her creation looks beautiful and must taste delicious! My kids love to "bake" as well. But don't ask how the kitchen looks afterwards... I think it's great that you are encouraging her to try out her own recipes - congratulations!
