St. Augustine, Florida (April 2012) If your child’s dream has been to spend a day in the kitchen of a chef’s restaurant learning about nutritious cooking and how to protect our planet’s future from the farm to the table, encourage them to enter Chef Jean-Stephane Poinard’s competition to win ‘My Day in a Chef’s Kitchen’.

WINNING ESSAY BY HANNAH ERASMUS

“Amazing !” Hear that? That’s what you will say when you taste our delicious new desert. What I mean when I said “OUR delicious new dessert” is that when I was little I always wanted to make a scrumptious dessert with a famous chef.

When the chef and I would be in our kitchen, we would bake keylime pie with real limes, incredible fat-free chocolate cake, caramel apples, chocolate covered strawberries and best of all…we would make the most nutritious fruit cake ever!

The Fruit Cake would have vanilla dough with a filling of freshly sliced strawberries. The top part of the fruit cake would have mangos, strawberries, blueberries, watermelon, cherries and oranges. On top of all the fruits, there would be whipped cream with eighty calories.

I’ve always loved cooking or baking things. But I mostly love baking desserts. So, do you want to bake a foot high wedding cake?


“I love to cook with my Mom. I cut vegetables and once we made a large fruit cake. I LOVE chocolate and sometimes restaurants serve really big desserts with LOTS of whipped cream so mine would be smaller so that it’s healthy, delicious and nutritious. I can’t wait to cook with the Chef in St. Augustine”.
