Cupcakes VS Cakes at the NY Cake Convention
Posted On: January 4, 2010 – 11:05 am

This weekend marked the launch of the first annual New York Cake Convention at the Hotel Pennsylvania. The convention was split into many sections catering to anyone from beginners to professionals. There were classes for kids, demonstrations, vendors, live challenges, and a display room of all the contest entries. The general entry fee was $10, but most of the events required separate registration. Granted, there were a few kinks that still needed to be worked out, but time and experience will fix that. We were particularly intrigued by the Cupcakes V.S. Cake “FACE OFF” event, with a grand prize of $2500. Three winners from each category would be picked and the first place winner from each would then be compared against the other to determine the final winner. Thus, this formal competition put the debate of cupcakes against cakes up to the test. What form would prevail? Needless to say, we’re a tad biased.
