General-admission tickets give guests a chance to view all the competitive entrants, ornately sculpted and on display. Attendees can also visit and purchase goods from specialty vendors, as well as view onsite competitions where bakers compete against each other or against the clock. On Sunday, raffle prizes will be drawn and the weekend’s winners announced. Single-day tickets grant entry for either Saturday or Sunday, and full-weekend tickets grant entry for both days.

That Takes the Cake Sugar Art Show & Cake Competition

Sweets are elevated to an art form at That Takes the Cake Sugar Art Show & Cake Competition. Bringing together expert bakers and sugar artists from across the state, the two-day event lets visitors stalk through an armada of colorful pastry masterpieces shaped like dragons, cheetahs, or cartoon characters. The competition breaks down its entrants into dozens of divisions and styles, all of which are judged according to creativity, theme, and artistry. A separate tasting competition includes entrants in the categories of angel-food cakes, moon pies, candies, and cookies.

Admirers of the sucrose arts can also learn at the feet of celebrity bakers by purchasing one of several group lessons in subjects such as cut relief, figure modeling, and how best to conceal a hacksaw inside a bundt cake.
