BOO!! Greetings cake nerds! It is time once again for the ghouls and ghosts to come out to play and more importantly, to gather up candy!! Maybe in one of our fabulous tote bags/candy holders!! It has also become about baked sweets like cupcakes and cookies and of course, cakes! We've seen so many great Halloween theme cakes recently and had the pleasure of making a few of our own that we thought one night sitting around the Merci Beaucoup HQ that we should have a contest. A Halloween cake contest!! Behold:
It's The Great Cake, Merci Beaucoup!! Halloween Cake Competition!!
We're looking for the most creative, spooktacular cakes you're little zombie food brains can come up with! Wanna enter? It is super simple! All you have to do is send a pic of your Halloween creation to us at mercicakes@yahoo.com with the subject heading "Halloween Contest." Include a photo of your cake and a spooky joke along with your contact information, favorite candy, and mailing address. Need more?
The Details:
- Cakes only! Sorry cupcakers, we'll take care of you next time!
- Cakes must have a Halloween/Day of the Dead theme and should be created this year.
- No more than 2 photos per entry (cake).
- Maximum 2 entries (cakes) per person.
- Contest prizes available to residents of North America only.
- Entries will close on October 30th at 11:59 pm, PST.
- Winner will be announced on Nov. 1st.
The Prize: The very first winner of the very first Merci Beaucoup sponsored cake competition will receive their very own plaque of distinction to hang in their place of business, home, or around their neck in a bold fashion statement! Design pending, but let's face it, to possess this plaque will be to hold pure awesome in your hand and you know you want that!! The remaining four (4) finalists from our Top 5 will receive a Finalist Medal.
So, get cracking on those designs and send 'em on over!! We can't wait to see what our amazing fans will come up with and as soon as we get a few entries, we will create an online gallery so everyone can share in the Halloween fun;) Good luck cakers, may the best tiers win;)
Hey, this looks like fun! I going to try and enter your contest. If the kids will just give me some time :-) Thank you for posting this!
