September 2008
My good friend Lisa @ Flour Confections and I and took a trip in late September to compete in the Oklahoma
State Sugar Art Show. This show is the Olympics of the cake world, the show has 2 shows combined into
one, the first being the Grand National Wedding Cake Competition, and the second being the divisional sugar
art show. Because I had too many orders, I could not commit the time needed to enter the Grand National
Wedding Cake Show, but I did enter into the divisional sugar art show.
Much to my delight, my holiday cake entry placed 2nd in the professional division....and from what I have been
told..if you place at all at this show you have done good!! My other entry in the professional wedding
cake category did not place, however it did make to get shot for the magazine American Cake Decorating......so
we will see if that cake makes an appearance!!!!!
Next years theme is "Of Sea and Shore" for the Grand National Wedding Cake Competition.....and I
have already found my inspiration!!!!
So yes, I will be Oklahoma bound next September!!
