Det Ch Insp Adam Gallop, from the Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire major crime unit, said: "It is beyond comprehension for the family to hear that one daughter has brutally murdered another.
"It has been a horrendous ordeal for them and we are pleased that we have received the guilty plea today."
He added that he could not be sure there would "ever be closure" for the family.
