All recipe quantities in the book are in grams, ounces and cups.
This cake is so realistic! Even more so from afar- I feel like I could play a prank on people: just take this cake on public transport & casually take a large bite out of it (& during peak hours when its really crowded)

3. I love How To Cook That because as a baker myself, I love to learn how to decorate as I could only do cookies on our toaster oven. Yes, I’m very eager to learn even though I do not have the other things needed in baking. Me and my mom would love to have one of these so that our arms won’t get tired from mixing anymore!!

3.I love How To Cook That way back 2013 and since then Im always and making sure watching you’re videos. It teaches me a lot when it comes to baking since my course was HRM(my dream was to became a pastry chef,but I stopped because of financial problem) and now Im a mom now and my husband was a swèet tooth person,I’m baking a lot and you’re chanel was my favorite inspiration. This giveaway was a blessing indeed because when I’m baking I only use a whisk and recently my husband bought me a electric mixer,I’m very much happy with that,but with this it makes a lot more easier since I’m planning to have a pastry business(at home,online buying ☺). Please choose me and it will help me a lot. Yay! Godbless and keep on baking so we can learn a lot from you!We love you. Your amazing and talented person!
