Last week, you heard from Susie Jacobs, a 2023 winner in Julia M. Usher’s Cookie Art Competition™, who talked about how she plans and preps for competition – and mine in particular, which was super helpful!
And just yesterday, I had the pleasure of chatting with one of our very special 2024 Gold Sponsors, a person who has perhaps more competing and judging experience than anyone I know . . . yes, I’m talking about American Cake Awards’ 2024 Sugar Hero, the remarkable Susan Trianos of Learn to Cake with Susan Trianos.
- her Holy Trinity of Competition Must-Dos (which is great advice for both new and seasoned competitors);
- what she looks for when judging (even more great advice); and
- the reveal of her prizes in this year's competition (whoa)!
Susan also helps me answer some lingering questions about the competition theme (Your Eras Tour) and the registration/entry process.
Whether you’re planning to enter my competition or still on the fence about it, this video is a must-watch either way! Again, for all of the competition rules and a reg link, check out the Competition Overview post (as I also recommend in the video 😀)!
P.S. I apologize for the "we're recording" at the start of the video and the sketchy audio-video syncing in areas, but the video is a live recording and internet connections were also sketchy at recording time. 😀
Thanks again to Susan for sharing her many valuable competition insights with us! And thanks as well to our other amazing sponsors who made this year's record-breaking prizes ($25,500!) possible.
As always, if you have any competition questions even after watching this video, just post a comment below or email me. Have fun prepping your entries!
