Verdict: Since schools closed down in March I began cooking more and more by myself as a hobby. So of course, I felt very excited when I heard that we were getting a new Canadian cooking box coming in the mail! I loved making the apple cider and cake (I still have to make the butternut squash soup)! They were very easy recipes to follow and my whole family thought they tasted delicious! Even my little sister tried them and loved the apple cider! I would recommend CucinaKids to any kids who love cooking and who love to have easy recipes to follow! I can’t wait to see which recipes are in the next box! – Review from Chef Sierra (age 9)
