“How am I going to find time to practice making my Show-Stopper recipe on top of everything else?” said Violet, biting her fingernails.
“Relax,” said Poppy. “The Show-Stopper Challenge is the last in the competition – you’ve got a lot of time.”
“But what if the judges hate it? What if they think I can’t bake? What if … what if …”
“Violet, pull yourself together. The judges are going to love you,” said Poppy, shooting me a worried look.
I know why Poppy is worried. After watching Bake or Break, I’ve realized the judges are tough – very tough.
HARRIET BLYTHINGTON: Has been a Bake or Break judge for years and years. She’s hard to please and is famous around the world for her meringue-whipping.
She insists on whisking by hand and thinks electric mixers are for wimps. One year she banned them from Bake or Break, but nearly all the contestants ended up “breaking” due to severe arm cramps. She is one of Violet’s all-time baking heroes.
SPENCER SPOKES: Famous for thinking of weird recipes you can cook using vegetables.
He’s only been a judge on Bake or Break for three years (the last one quit because of the extreme stress of the competition) but he’s already well known for saying exactly what he thinks. He doesn’t care that he is talking to kids. Mom’s got his new recipe book Parsnips and Me. (A whole book about parsnips? Sounds BORING.)
It’s up to me and Poppy to make sure Violet is ready to face them on Monday.
