“At first I was a little overwhelmed to create this dessert,” admits chef Vanderveen, “but in the end it tasted great, which is all that matters.”

She says she definitely plans to enter again next year, and if the design is up to her, she’ll do a more in-depth plate of the Denver skyline. Sounds delicious.
