This is a cake baking contest. A cake is an item made with flour, eggs, flavorings and topped with an icing of some sort. These could be cupcakes as well as any size cake. This is not a CRAB dish but a bakery item.
Any and all people are welcome to enter the bake-off! Kids 10-17 and Adults of any age are welcome to participate. Both inexperienced and experienced bakers are eligible to enter. There is an amateur and a professional category.
Contestants may work individually or with a team. (Prizes will be awarded to 1 member per team only, NOT each individual.)
