When I wrote about cookery books for Foody Kids Thursday I mentioned the Kids’ First Cook Book (Angela Wilkes, Dorling Kindersley, 2011), and how Fils aîné’s entire birthday party was themed around the dinosaur cake. I hoped we could live up to the picture…
Well, after a few weeks’ postponement due to snow, the party was yesterday. Nothing quite went according to plan – my cat-herding skills aren’t quite up to organising 15 3-to-6-year-olds it appears – but they all had fun.
And I’m pleased to report that the book has such clear instructions and detailed pictures that the dinosaur cake did indeed resemble the picture. I was rather pleased with the finished result, and it tastes good too.
It’s great. In fact, I prefer yours to the book, it has more personality.
