I love how to cook that because I love to bake and I love seeing what you create next!
It looks like 6 colours, because the first colour and the colour Ann is using for the recipe look like different colours to me. It could be 5 colours though, if they’re the same.
I love How to Cook That because Ann is so creative, it’s so fun to watch, and it makes me want to bake. 🙂
Oh! And, Ann joined Youtube in April 2011. Not 100% positive that she posted her first video in that month too, but that’s my best guess — April 2011.
(Also, this website should allow you to edit your comments — just a suggestion).

Editing my comments would be so, so helpful. Lol.
