CAKE COMPETITION

- Join the competition with your cake!

The competition is open for all and every one that would like to compete with their cake.

It is free of charge but it is necessary to sign up for a place as the places are limited.

Please send us an e-mail at order@tartdecor and you will have a confirmation if there is still place to join the competition.

There will be two classes:

* Class 1 - Weddingcakes - Retro from 1970

We thought it would be interesting with a non-traditional wedding cake theme. Such as colours, designs and decorations should be from around the 70th.

* Class 2 - Novelty cake - The Holiday of My Dreams

This year the novelty class will be a cake with a theme of the holiday of my dreams. It could be a modelled cake, painted cake, piped cake or made out of pastillage construccion.

Rules:

The Jury will consider the following aspects when judging:

- Tecnical perfection

- Harmony in colours and design

- Creativity and expression

- How good the cake suites the theme

When you make your cake you should consider that all used material should be edible, exept of floralwire and floraltejp for sugarlfowers or similar. No floral wire have to be inserted to the cake. No non-edible top decorations are permitted. Everything should be able to be done on a real cake and the display has to be decorated and treated as it was a real cake.

The bottom of the cake mustn´t be larger than 45 cm in diameter. We suggest that you make a dummy cake as it has to be on display for two days. You must leave your cake at the exhibition latest Saturday morning the 18 Sept. at 9.00 am. There is a possibility to leave the cake Friday until 20.00 pm. You can´t take it away earlier than 16.00 pm Sunday afternoon. Cakes that are left in the show room after closing time won´t be stored. Don´t forget that you have to sign up for a place. Email us at order@tartdecor.se Very Welcome with your cake!

Winners from earlier Cake Shows are not able to attend the Competition the following year but will be invited to put a cake on display on the Table of Honour. After being among the winners three times it won´t be possible to attend the Competition any longer. But the winner is more than welcome to display a cake on the Table of Honour.

Judging:

There will be two winners in each cathegory. One of the prices will be judged by a group of jury - Carol Haycox, Karen Davies and Ruth Wyld. The other winner will be the choice of the people. It will be possible to vote until 12.00 on Sunday the 19 of Sept. The award ceremony takes place at 13.00.

The winners will receive a giftcard of SEK. 500:- from Tårtdecor and an Award certificate.

New this year is that there will be a 2nd and 3rd winner from the peoples choice. The award for theese winners is a free ticket to Scandinavian Cake Show 2011. There will also be possibility for the Jury to give some of the displays Highly Commended and Commended if the level of the work requires that. Theese winners will also receive free tickets to the Scandinavian Cake Show 2011.

To go by bus

If you go by bus you should go by "Röd Express" to Kungälvsmotet. Kvarnkullen is situated just beside the motorway, less than 5 minutes walk.
