1. Contestants may be amateurs, Culinary Arts Students, Professional cook teams or church groups. Entry fee is $25, and registration is online at www.albertvillechamberofcommerce.com.   
2. Contestants may enter only 1 dessert. If it is an organization, more than 1 can be entered but must be under a “head cook” name and must pay the $25 entrée fee for each entry.  
3. Submissions can NOT be store bought. We are looking for “made from scratch” entrees .

5. All baked goods must be fully baked and complete. Contestants turning in cupcakes or single serving desserts must submit at least 10 of each.
6. Aspiring Bakers must use their own dish and decorations. Be creative!  These can be picked up after 3
7. Any leftover items will be the property of the contest organizers. 
8. Refrigeration will not be provided for your entrees.  I would not recommend an ice cream dessert. It may sit at room temp for up to an hour so keep that in mind.
9. Each entry should be turned in with an index card that includes your name, phone number, and the name of your baked good.
