your mission completed: a glaze of gloryLet’s get glazy! Gastroposters certainly did for this week’s mission by frosting, icing and glazing

everything from cookies to pork jerky. Sweet or savoury, your toppings were simply the tops! On these pages, Twitter handles are in blue and Instagram handles are in brown.

last week, our mission partner Food Network Canada asked you to share your beautiful baked goods inspired by its new

series, Spring Baking Championship. Here are some of them for consideration.

mission inspiration:spring baKing cHampionsHip

From Mother’s Day brunches and family picnics to birthday parties and weddings, there’s a lot of spring baking to do. And

Food Network’s new series, Spring Baking Championship, is here to help! For inspiration for this week’s mission, watch as the seven remaining bakers

pucker up to lemons and limes and bake a springtime citrus treat for their main

heat challenge in front of tough-love judges Duff Goldman, Lorraine Pascale and Nancy Fuller. If you participate along with the competitors by using lemons and limes for this week’s mission, let us

know by adding the hashtag #BakingChampionship to your #gastropost and we’ll feature some of those in next week’s paper!

For more information, visit foodnetwork.ca and join the baking banter on Twitter #BakingChampionship.

your next mission:pucKer up

Being left with a sour taste in your mouth doesn’t have to be a bad thing. Just think of all the delicious tart foods that play a part in our diet: there’s Greek yogurt and pickles, sauerkraut and kimchi, lemons and limes and a long list of citrus fruits.

And don’t forget all the assortment of sour candies for the sweet tooth. Your mission this week is to pucker up and post your

favourite sour foods. Sour grapes? More like sour great!
