Dear Jane, I am Owen from Cookpad in charge of the African regions. I heard that the baking session in Mombasa was successful. I sincerely appreciated your effort on joining the baking event there. If this kind of baking session is helpful for you and your friends, we would like to continue to hold these events and improve the quality of the session and thus please kindly feel free to let us know the improvement points or any request on the baking session. Also, after the healthy baking contests which will be over in 1 day, we would like to have one more recipe contest around baking theme. I would appreciate it if you could tell us what kind of baking theme (e.g. sponge cake, baking for kids, cookie, bread, etc…) you and your friends. Thanks again, Owen
