Baking Contest 2016

The holidays are a perfect excuse to spend a little extra time in the kitchen and we want to see what you are inspired to create in the Baking Contest. Anything edible baked in an oven using dry heat will qualify.

Show off your baking prowess for a chance to win some great supplies for your kitchen including a Le Creuset cookware set, stoneware sets, or stainless steel mixing bowls. Fire up your oven and get ready to bake some delightful delicacies and scrumptious sweets. If you need some help getting started, check out our Cake Decorating class!
