I can't wait for this show. This is going to be my first time competing. I went as a spectator to OSAS last year and really got inspired. And it's close to me too. I am really looking forward to Michelle Bomarito's demo as well.
I am SOOOO excited that the show is this year! I had a blast at the last one! So many celebrity faces this year and a lot more to do now that it's in a bigger venue. I hope to see some new talent and more amazing cakes.
I'm going too!! It's so good to have something in the Dallas/Ft. Worth Metroplex. I can compete and still sleep in my own bed.
The artistic impression items are so cool this year. It's Texas themed but NOT "western". I can't wait to see how everyone interprets the inspiration items. Now I have to start sketching out my entries.
Woohoo! I will definitely be there. Can't wait to see all the creativity. I have a couple of friends that have never entered a show that want to give it a shot.
Should be fun for all!
Lots of great new people!! How exciting! Please don't forget to go online and enter as soon as possible.
grrr dallas is like 7hrs away but i really want to go! i love my state but i just hate how huge it is when driving lol! we'll see if i can talk my bf into making the trip up there with me w/a cake in the back- he gets more nervous than i do when transporting! haha good luck to everyone entering a cake!
I love the "billowing" technique. What a great idea. I'm definitely going to try that soon.
cake_architect....ya'll should totally come. It's going to be a lot of fun. They posted the demonstrators and Linda McClure is going to be there. I'm so excited because although I only have the cricut mini (non-cake) I'm really interested in seeing how she gets things to cut out properly....AND the Cakeplay people will be there to do a demo. I'm so afraid of Isomalt but I really want to work with it.
ahhhh i'm afraid of isomalt too! i have a bag of the crystal-things sitting in my cake cabinet but i'm too afraid to even take it out lol! i really wanted to take the tutorial at "that takes the cake" but i found out they were making butterflies and i have this reallllyyyyy odd hatred of butterflies lol! {what a silly reason not to take a class right?! lol!} hmmmm one more reason to drive up there...
cake_architect ... Isomalt is so much fun - once you learn how to use it you can use it for so many things. Cake Play is doing a great demo and you will be a pro quickly!
Here is a list of our demonstrations:
Earlene Moore / How to Use Lace Molds on a Cake
Linda McClure from DesertDesigns / Using electronic cutter machines
Jenny Skinner from Cake Play / Isomalt poured and molded sugar
Sylvia Wilson / Making Figurines
Michelle Stidham/Diane Simmons / Gelatin Bows and Flowers
Edward Frys /Airbrushing Techniques
Dawn Parrott / Topic to be announced
I just entered my first competition this past weekend in Austin and was sooo excited to hear about this one! I was blown away by the talent these competitions have to offer!
are there day/time schedules for the demonstrators? i'll only be able to make it to one day if i can go.
I don't think the finalized schedule has been posted. I'll PM the OP on the other thread and see if they have a tentative layout.

Hi Everyone,
There is only about a week left to enter the North Texas Cake and Sugar Art Show If you can't enter at least stop by and check out all the great cakes and vendors.
Also I'm hoping to get a CC meetup time one day so we can all put faces to our online identities.
Hope to see you all there.
i'm coming!!! i'll be there on saturday. if you see a short filipina armed with a camera, that's me. if i can find my CakeCentral button, i'll wear it ... i think it's somewhere in the kitchen ... hmmm ...
Hi Metria,
So glad you're are going to make it. I spent more than 3 hrs tonight working on just the cake board...I think my time might have been better spent on something else but once you get started you've got to finish it
I started a new thread about doing a cake central meet up at the show.

I think Saturday at 11:30am will work because that's between demos and hopefully it's early enough that people will still be hanging around.
I will actually be volunteering at the show with the Sugar Wonders Cake Club. I'll be in a black and pink North Texas Cake and Sugar Art show T-shirt and my name in the real world is Cristy.
I'll keep an eye out for you and your camera
Cristy
<edited post to fix the time and include link to other post>
I am going too!!! I am excited but nervous... and add to that mix stressed because I am waaay behind but hopefully I will get it done!!
I'll be there on saturday, this will be my first show, I'm sooo looking forward it to. I was going to compete but I got to busy and haven't been able to finish it, (next time).
