Association of Connecticut Fairs
Baking Contest
General Rules
WHO MAY ENTER: The contest held at each Fair is open to all men, women and juniors who are residents of Connecticut. Commercial, Industrial and Professional Bakers are not eligible.
Divisions: Junior (ages 9 - 15 as of July 1, 2011) Senior (ages 15 & over)
HOW TO ENTER: Any Connecticut resident entering a contest at any member fair is automatically entered in the local contest. Contestants may enter the contest at as many fairs as they wish until they win first prize. The winner will then represent that Fair at the state baking contest. Please submit entries to both the local and state contest on disposal plates. The Association of Connecticut Fairs and the local fairs are not responsible for the return of plates, trays or containers.
JUDGING: Judging will be based on appearance, flavor and texture. The Association of Connecticut Fairs will furnish judges' score sheets to each Fair and the contestant will receive these sheets at the end of the contest. Additions, deletions or substitutions in the recipe is not permitted and will result in disqualification. All decisions of the judges are final.
LOCAL CONTEST: The winner of the local contest will receive a blue ribbon from the Association of Connecticut Fairs and will then become eligible to submit their entry at the state contest. In the event that only one entry is received at the local contest and that entry is worthy of first prize, that entry must be awarded the first place ribbon.
STATE CONTEST: The state contest is held as part of the Fall Meeting and convention of the Association of Connecticut Fairs. Entries for the state contest are accepted until 11:00 am on the day of the contest (contact your local Fair or visit www.ctfairs.org for the date and location.) Contest winners are announced during the banquet on the day of the contest. Each fair is responsible for contacting their contest winner and provide information about the state contest. The Association of Connecticut Fairs does not contact individual fairs or contest winners regarding contest and banquet reservations. The Bridgewater Country Fair will pay for the contest winner and a guest to attend the fall State competition dinner. NO BANQUET RESERVATIONS FOR CONTEST WINNERS WILL BE ACCEPTED AT THE DOOR.
All entries to the state contest become property of the Association of Connecticut Fairs and are not returned.
