Columbia, S.C. is gearing up for a festive showdown as the Best Decorated Gingerbread House Contest rolls around! Mark your calendars for December 12, because it’s time to turn those sweet dreams into reality! Whether your masterpiece features candy cane corbels, sugar cookie shingles, or lollipop lights, this is your chance to showcase your creative baking skills.
Hosted by the always delightful City of Columbia Parks & Recreation, this fun-filled event is open to all gingerbread architects aged 18 and up. That’s right, it’s time for the adults to shine in a world where flour and frosting can create sheer magic! Best of all, there is no fee to enter. It’s an *awesome opportunity* to have some holiday fun while showing off your baking prowess.
Get your gingerbread on, because aside from tasting great, your houses will be seen by the public! All entries will be displayed at the Earlewood Park Community Center for everyone to admire from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on the day of the contest. Talk about bragging rights, right? Imagine your gingerbread house becoming the talk of the town!
And speaking of bragging rights, let’s not forget about the prizes! The top three contenders will walk away with some serious cash rewards for their efforts. First place will snag a celebratory $100, while second place falls right behind with a neat $75. Meanwhile, third place won’t leave empty-handed either, receiving a cozy $50 prize. Prizes like these might just motivate a little friendly competition!
If you’re ready to dust off your apron and start building your gingerbread wonder, make sure to register by November 30. It’s as easy as pie (or cookie, in this case)! Just sign up, and begin dreaming up your gingerbread design. Whether you go for classic or avant-garde, keep in mind that creativity is the name of the game here.
This is your chance to let your inner baker explore the world of gingerbread artistry. Will you go traditional and stick to red and green sprinkles, or are you daring enough to whip up a funky, modern gingerbread structure with wild colors and unconventional designs? No matter your style, everyone is welcome to participate. Remember, it’s all in good fun!
As you prepare to embark on this sweet adventure, don’t forget the essential gingerbread-making materials! Stock up on everything from royal icing to those tempting decorations that might just give you the edge over your fellow competitors. Get creative, let loose, and perhaps even recruit a friend or family member to join the fun. This could turn into a lovely holiday tradition!
Don’t let the deadline sneak up on you! Dust off the measuring cups, turn on those festive tunes, and get ready for a holiday event like no other in Columbia this December. Here’s to a fun contest filled with creativity, friendly competition, and lots of sugary goodness. Embrace your inner baker, and let the gingerbread magic begin!
