I noticed that Wilton never mentioned when they would be judging the entries for this years cake contest... guessing they already have, but wonder if anyone out there knew for sure. I had a lot of trouble sending my photos online... thought the cake would be the hard part, but it was the entry that got me frazzled. Then there was no way to confirm that they had rec'd my photos in the proper format. Next year I'm going snail mail!
Im wondering the same thing!!!! I sent my entry snail mail, never received anything confirming that they had gotten my pic! Im not sure when they announce the winners. I checked the website and nothing has been updated, although it did say, if you want to know the winning entries send a self addressed stamp before Oct 31. They posted the winners last year, so eventually we'll find out!!
Last year they were really slow announcing the winners, seems to me it was months later. I remember because a couple of good buddies had entries and were emailing Wilton often to find out what was taking so long.

That's certainly frustrating! I've emailed once, but don't want to annoy anyone, so thought I'd just let it go. They didn't email me back, so assumed I didn't place. I don't mind if they take their time judging, but would like to at least know what their schedule is. I've never seen any contest of any kind that left the contestants so in the dark. Oh well, I still love Wilton... won't get too cranky.
well, the only thing i have heard is that one of the women in my decorating class, said they sent her something saying she was a finalist. and needed to send an affidavit. But thats all i've heard. I do wish they would post the entry photos, i would love to see everyones work.
I called WILTON. I was told the results would be announced sometime in Dec.
WHAT TORTURE!!

Wow, I'm bummed. I was hoping to place in the kid's birthday category. The last time I called they said they would announce the winners end of Oct. beginning of Nov. I guess not!
Don't say that adven68 !!
The deadline for the entry was Sept 30th Via email and by mail all Entries must be postmarked by 9/30/05 and received by 10/8/05.
You still have a chance!!!!!!!!!
I am sure they are judging now. Keep your head up. You do beautiful work. We all put our hearts into our cake. Don't give up hope. You may get that letter or phone call.
BEST OF LUCK TO ALL WHO ENTERED

Well, last year the winners were not announced until either the end of December or early January. I don't know if that was unusual or what, but it might well be awhile yet.

I took this from the contest rules on wilton's site;
For names of winners, send a self-addressed stamped envelope, to: The Wilton "Your Take on Cake" Winners, 200 East Randolph Dr., Suite #6300, Chicago, IL 60601, to be received by 10/31/05.
I found this posted on the Wilton website Discussion Forum under General Information:
Oct. 28 @ 2:17 pm
"Winners have been selected for the 2005 Cake Decorating Contest.
We are currently in the process of notifying the winners and will be posting the pictures as soon as possible. "
