CATEGORY TWO:
Most cupcakes donated.
The focus is on quantity, and this category is open to local bakeries, caterers, bakers, organisations, schools, churches etc.. Cupcakes will be judged in terms of flavour, colour and presentation and the cupcake that best represents the City of Tshwane, will be announced by the Executive Mayor as the “Tshwane Cupcake.” Here the focus is on the quantity and the minimum quantity that you can enter is 12 dozen (144 cupcakes). The cupcakes that you donate to the event will be included in a cupcake display. Cupcakes will be sold afterwards and those not sold will be delivered to orphanages and old age homes in Tshwane.
