Cupcake Challenge Theme – “Sweet and Savory”

You are required to bring 9 dozen MINI cupcakes of each flavor entered. This allows a good sample size for our guests. You are welcome to bring additional minis of the same flavor if you would like to share your creation with more attendees. The event will be attended by over 600 cupcake aficionados.

You may enter cake pops (chocolate covered cake bites on sticks) or cake push pops in the competition, but the 9 dozen minimum still applies.Full-sized cupcakes will not be judged or distributed during the event.

Attendees will be able to wander from table to table to try each cupcake flavor. Cupcake display materials (stands, decorations, or other props) are encouraged for your presentation area, but not required. These elements will not be judged. Cupcakes and display items must remain available to attendees and judges through the end of the event.

Cupcakes submitted for judging must be equivalent to/representative of the cupcakes that are being made available to the public.

You will be expected to stay at your table during the event, within reason. Please collect tasting tickets, refill your displays, and interact with the guests. The atmosphere is very festive, and it is a great chance to exchange recipes or promote your business/blog. NCACS is not responsible for unattended display materials.
