Bakels Alice in Wonderland Foodstuffs Expo 2018

2018 Winners - Foodstuffs Expo

Bakels are proud to announce they have once again taken out the Best Bakery Display award at the Foodstuffs Expo 2018.

The icing on the cake was finding out they also won the Best Display Members' Choice award from the nearly 300 entries displayed at the ASB Showgrounds in Auckland, New Zealand.

A great deal went into the thinking, planning, baking, stand set-up and outstanding execution of a colourful dessert showcase for the Alice in Wonderland tea party using Bakels products. Included was the Pettinice show stopping stacked teacups cake, which measured a whopping 1.5 meters tall, complete with a cute spinning dormouse inside the tipped Mad Hatter's teapot.

Lavish baking covered the 10 metre table setting, with treats such as cream donuts with berry coulis injectables, lime infused coconut cupcakes, rainbow drip cakes, toasted homemade marshmallows, mini donuts, cupcakes, slices, and did I mention cakes? Cakes! and more cakes galore! 

Ribboned themed tags wrapped on vintage teapots and desserts teased viewers to "eat me!"   An delicous instruction this viewer could have easily followed...

 

 

Overall outstanding effort by the entire Bakels team. Congratulations!
