Put your aprons on, grease your cake pans, and get ready for the Great Harney County Bakeoff!  

Yes, it is happening right here in our community. Bakers will compete to earn top honors in our cake baking competition and the winner will be crowned Best Amateur Baker in Harney County. Our contest starts January 14; all entries must be submitted by 5 pm on January 31.

Need some inspiration to get started? The library will have 25 kits available to be picked up starting January 14 (one per family). Kits include cake mix, powdered sugar, decorating tips for icing, sprinkles, and more. We have many different cake pans which can be checked out from the library to use for creating your masterpiece. However, it is perfectly fine to use your own pans.

Although we would love to see and sample your creations, please submit pictures only. These can be sent to harneycl@harneycountylibrary.org. You are welcome to submit more than one entry. Judging will take place the first week in February.
