Thank you to all of our Bakers and attendees for making our very first Iron Cupcake Toronto competition a great success!
Thank you also to our wonderful panel of judges; Susan Sampson from the Toronto Star, Lauren Wilson from blogTO.com , Tony Barone from George Brown College and Jamie Mistry from Amsterdam Brewery.
We would also like to acknowledge Thomas Allen & Son the publisher for Hello, Cupcake! and What’s New, Cupcake? for the donation of books as prizes for our bakers.
We also could not have pulled off this event without the help of our volunteers. Thanks again!
Congratulations to winner Brenda Robinson who made cupcake #15 “Erin Go Bragh” and to Allison Davey who won the People’s choice award for her cupcake #16 “Morning After St. Patty’s Day”.
I also wanted to give an Honourable Mention to Jaime Dobbs for her cupcake #9 “Eye Opener”.
Here are a few photos that we took at the event. If anyone who attended the event has any photos they would like to contribute to this post please email them to me at gg@fortheloveofcake.ca
