“We loved this kit. The kids loved even opening the box and seeing everything inside. Exciting. We thought it was a great way to introduce different vegetables to kids. It was interesting to see how many children had not tried them before and the reluctance shown. It certainly has introduced some new vegetables to their diet.”

“My class really enjoyed the veg cake. They had good discussions around which vegs to choose and which would be the healthy and taste the best. I do alot of cooking in class already. So it was neat to see the skill they had learnt could transfer to this challenge. We have just had plant to plate in where we did cooking that was similar, this was a good follow on, they were once again amazed that cakes can have a healthy spin on them and they can taste good.”
