I have three sisters and one brother, 3 brothers in law and a sister in law on my side of the family. (My husband is from a family of six kids). When ever there is a family gathering, there is food, LOTS of food.
Baking was the forte of my maternal grandmother, my paternal grandmother was a fine cook and excellent baker. Of my generation, we all have our specialties, siblings and spouses alike.
So, needless to say, I was delighted when my 13 year old niece expressed a strong desire to learn how to bake pies and cakes. Last summer she took a decorating class through Wilton. She has done some really great work since then.
Most recently she made her cousins 8th grade graduation cake. She baked a double layer sheet cake from scratch, and then decorated it. She did a fine job. I look forward to her future as a baker. She's well on her way.
