Cupcake Contest...two of my favorite words. The theme I picked: PARADE. The prizes bought: SILICONE CUPCAKE BAKING PANS & the Grand Prize: $25 gift certificate to a fancy BAKERY in Dover.
Soon I will show up at town events and hand out fliers with contest rules and registration entry forms. It's about that time to find a judge to take my place at the Cupcake Contest. I was a judge last year. Last year was the first year.
I created the contest so I would be famous in my town. I will be known as the 'Cupcake Lady.' It suits me just fine.
Sometimes I even dress like a cupcake. I put on my basic color and then doll myself up with baubles, belts, and hats...kinda like cupcake decorations.
I like brown jimmies, Andie's Candies mint pieces, and the Nonpareils. I like to flavor my frosting mint. Though I need practice using a frosting bag with the fancy attachments, I am quite good at coloring frosting all the colors of the rainbow.
I like the flavors of chocolate, lemon, and spice cupcakes. I am always experimenting with different flavored frosting on different flavored cupcakes. Of course, I am my favorite judge.
I like cupcakes soooo much, I thought up the contest to see just how many others like to bake. Last year, twenty five contestants entered the contest. I wonder how many there will be this year.
Either way, I will not be an official judge, tasting and labouring over giving the entry a vote of numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5.
I will be at the table during check-in, greeting the adults and smiling at the kids. I will watch, I will tally up the votes, I will take photographs, I WILL HAND OUT THE PRIZES!!!
I love my Cupcake Contest that takes place during Nottingham Day. Won't you join us?
(Sept. 19t- 9:00 - 10:00 entries accepted - prizes announced at 12:00 noon)
