Hi my fellow CC'nians,
I won yesterday at the 2006 CA State Fair.
I got First Place (Blue Ribbon), Best of Division and Best of Class.
I'm not sure If I got Best of Show since I had to leave b4 it was announced. I f I did I will let you all know...it was Pumpkin Cake w/ Maple Buttercream..everything is MMF. it was judged 96% taste, flavor, texture and 4% appearance and presentation. One cake was disqualified because there was human hair on it and one was presented in a big shoe box. There was a total of probably 80 cakes in the cake div. Thanks for looking. I named it" Autumn Breeze"
here is my entry:
CONGRATS!!!! OMG VERY beautiful cake! I see WHY you won!!!! You should be sooooo proud!!!!
Laura
YAY!!!!!!!! Congrats! It looks so beautiful! It sounds delicious!!! I could use a bite right now!!!!
Congratulations! The cake is beautiful. Did they judge on points? Did they give you a copy of your score sheet?
And now, for the obvious question that everyone asks, would you be willing to share your prize-winning recipes with us?
Theresa
I never had and never will have a problem sharing any recipes, tips etc..
with anybody here. I don't have secrets about cakes.. Looks was not a big factor, and I knew that b4 hand, but I cannot present a "half naked cake".
Congratulations!!! The cake is beautiful and sounds terrific! I'll bet you got every point they could think of regarding presentation if that was only 4%-it's so gorgeous!!!
I love this cake! Fall is my favorite time of the year and this just makes me happy and impatient for it to arrive here in Ohio!
