Cake Class

I can hardly begin to explain the buzz of excitement in the kitchen on this cooking class!

I'm hoping the pictures do it justice.

Four girls at the sink, stirring up chocolate miracle cake.

(I think Makenna was actually in the sink.)

We poured the batter into large straight shaped muffin tins

to create the perfect little layers for mini cakes.

Tehya came a little late to the class

but was here by now . . . on the other side of the counter..

She invited herself to be my assistant ... and I'm glad she did.

It was Teddy who surprised me the most 

with her diligence to keep to the task.

Four years old, and she worked with tender care.

Hhmn....

What's not to like?

The old fashioned plastic decorating tube was passed along

 and they were excited when they caught on to how to use it. 

I was proud of them.

 

Seeing I only had two ballerinas in my stash

Tehya  was happy to take everyone outside to pick flowers

so they had a few choices on how to finish off their cakes.

Little take home cake plates came from the MCC thrift store.

On this photo you may see that we also made up some tiny purses 

with life saver handles. 

We finished off the class with a little lunch 

of tea sandwiches, tiny scones with jam

and a lot of tea, sugar and giggles.
