Want to feel really bad about your cooking skills? Get to know Taylor Moxey, a 9-year-old wunderkind baker who not only is a pro in the kitchen, but a good-hearted, smart child to boot.
Moxey is a guest on Thursday’s episode of Fab Life, where she taught self-admitted bad baker Chrissy Teigen how to make vanilla cupcakes in ice cream cones from scratch.
Moxey isn’t just a fantastic baker — she’s a serious entrepreneur, too. Moxey first learned these skills when she needed some extra dough (pun intended) to get a new toy. After her father loaned her $40 in seed money for ingredients, she got cooking. After 15 minutes at her church bake sale, Moxey had raked in a whopping $175 for her cookies and brownies.
So did she get her dream Barbie? Nope! “I got business cards instead,” Moxey said. She also donated half of her earnings to raise money for dyslexia awareness. To this day, Moxey uses three jars to keep track of her money, marked “charity,” “invest,” and “spend.”
The 9-year-old is also great in front of the camera. She expertly walks Teigen through the recipe, pointing out some good tips and tricks along the way. As she hands the sugar to Teigen to add to the mixing bowl, she says “You’re sweet, so you can add this.”
“Oh, you’re the first person, and only person, to say that,” Teigen replies.
