I have been anticipating the cake decorating contest at the OC fair for a year and just logged on to fill out the entry form. Come to find out all entries had to be submitted by May 20th! Disappointment would be an understatement. I have never entered a contest and was really looking forward to this. AUGH! Guess Ill just have to look at all the great work this year.

Is anyone here entering? Has anyone entered before? There are some great decorators in OC so I figure the competition is fierce

I entered in 2 categories. Fair theme and novelty. I did it the first year (2007) and last year. I make sure to mark my calender for the end of March so that I make the deadline to enter.. It is different this year, they will not be judging in front of an audience. I am totally afraid it's gonna be like the Oklahoma cake show.. I am not at that level by any means..

Any one else enter the first half of the cake decorating contest? I know there are more Orange county people here.. :0) Results are posted tomorrow... I have 2 entries in this year..

Maybe u could enter the Los Angeles County Fair. They open sometime in September. You could look online and see when their deadline is. Good Luck

Is there anyone else?

Well the results are in, I got 1st and 2nd place!!! yay!!

Congratulations!!!! I went to the fair opening day. What baking item did u win? U should enter the LA County Fair...
