St. Petersburg, Fla. –The Morean Arts Center invites you to participate in their city-wide search for St. Petersburg’s best cupcake. Join the 12th annual cupcake contest on Saturday, August 26, from 12pm-3pm at the Morean Center for Clay, and leave with a box of treasures. This decadent fundraising event features a variety of submissions categorized by youth/teen, novice, professional and specialty (vegan or gluten-free). Pre-registered attendees will receive a 12-count box to fill with the mini-cupcakes of their choice and will vote for their favorite flavor to win the People’s Choice award.
A panel of judges will take into account originality, taste/texture, and artistic presentation to nominate the contest winners. The winners in each category will be announced at 3pm and will be awarded a glass trophy made by Morean Glass studio artists. Spots are still available for additional cupcake bakers to compete.
Pre-purchase of your cupcake box is required, as the event often sells out. Attendees are allowed to purchase as many boxes as they’d like and can make an additional vote for every box purchased.
The Morean Center for Clay is located in the Warehouse Arts District at 420 22nd Street South. Visit moreanartscenter.org/cupcakes for more information.
