Cake Off 2013 at the Grove Mall
The Grove mall once again hosted the annual “Cake-off” competition this past weekend.
There were 28 entries into this competition and with all the good candidates, voting for judges could not have been easy. All shapes and sizes were on display, each being an artwork on its own. The many bakers showed their talent and passion for baking tremendously well, through all the individual displays that were erected throughout the mall. Shoppers were fascinated and the kiddies amazed by the wonderland of cakes.
At the end everyone could buy slices of the fantastic cakes for only R10. What a bargain for world class cake.
And what would any event be without some celebrities being there, having fun and doing their bit for charity. Some of the 7de Laan actors were there to present and entertain the shoppers. Dezzi, even took part in a “Icing competition” and the cake was auctioned off for R1500, which all went to charity.
What a fun filled event…. We can’t wait until next year.
Among the entries were Nicole from Red Velvet Kitchen, who just became part of the ShowMe Pretoria network. Nicole described the event as follows: “The build-up to the event was obviously a nerve wrecking one, but overriding the nerves were our excitement and eagerness for the competition”.
“All of us at the kitchen take great pride in what we do and all the cakes are made with love and attention; so to be presented with the opportunity to share our cakes with so many people, while doing something for charity, was a true blessing and we enjoyed every minute of the experience. Winning 2nd place in the ‘Special Occasion’ category was obviously the cherry on top of the unbelievably yummy cake”.
