Can you believe we are here in February ALREADY! Time is getting away from us quicker and quicker, it’s quite the elusive beast.
There are three major cake decorating competitions coming up over the next couple of months.
First up is The Blacktown Show, it never seems to garner loads of entries, probably doesn’t help that it’s first cab off the rank in only a couple of weeks. Check out the dates and schedule info HERE.
Next is The Castle Hill Show, entries are open till almost the end of February but don’t leave it till the last minute to get them in! Check out the dates and schedule info HERE.
Last but not least The Sydney Royal Easter Show. Postal entries have already closed BUT online entries close Wednesday 3rd February (inclusive), so if you want to give it a burl, then get online NOW! Check out the dates and info HERE.
Good luck to all who choose to enter, remember to let us know how you do!

Thanks to everyone who took the time to enter and answer my questions. I appreciate the feedback and will be looking to incorporate some of the ideas into the blog in the new year!
