Cupcake Challenge, Take 2

Well, that was interesting.... So last year I wrote a blog, around the same time, about a cupcake challenge that I took part in. Last year I won 2nd place in the junior category, which includes grade 6-9. This year was my first year competing in the senior category, grades 10-12, and it was really nerve wracking. I remember during the awards ceremony, I kept on tapping my feet and nervously clapping my hands. I think I did slightly better than last year this year, I mean, I only got 1 place higher. That's right, I got first place. But let me tell you, it was no walk in the park. I had procrastinated so much, to the point where I had to build my display on the very last day. And, I had to come up with a flavor that really emphasized the secret ingredient, berries. I had tested like 5 flavors until I had settled on it being a Strawberry-Ginger cupcake with Strawberry-Basil frosting.  

I loved doing this competition, and I urge you to take part in the club FCCLA to participate in your school too!
