Cake Decorating Contest Returns for Halloween

Do you recall the that came to in late August? It was a blast, and it’s returning this month—earlier than planned!

The contest left a trailing vanilla scent through the library, and a sense of pride with the contestants, who took home “trophy spoons” and goodie bags.

Junior bakers and cake decorators can showcase their talents and win a prize at this season's Kids Cake Decorating Contest, sponsored by The Pie Place, on Wednesday, Oct. 19 from 6:30-8 p.m.

The theme of the contest is “Happy Halloween,” and prizes will be awarded in three age categories: age 8 and under; age 9 to 13; and age 14 to 18.

A fan favorite will be selected by those in attendance as well.

The official rules and entry form are available at the library’s circulation desk. An entry fee of $10 per cake will be collected and donated to the library.

All cakes submitted for judging must be iced and decorated by the child alone, and entrants will have the option to donate their cake to be part of a silent auction at the conclusion of the event.

Entry forms should be dropped off at the Peters Township Public Library or The Pie Place, 1775 N. Highland Road, Upper St. Clair. 

If you need help planning your design, you can call Kirsten at the Cake Hotline at 412-576-0397 or email cakes@thepieplace.net.
