Capital Confectioners That Takes the Cake! Sugar Arts Show

The 10th annual “That Takes the Cake!” Sugar Arts Show will take place at the Austin Community College(ACC) campus at Highland Mall, Saturday & Sunday, Feb. 22-23, and promises to be a treat in every sense of the word. As in years past, visitors will enjoy a full cake competition, live demos and on-site competitions, a kids’ decorating area, vendors, raffles, classes, and everything else that folks have come to love!

Registration for the competition and classes, discounted general admission tickets, and a complete schedule of events can be found at http://thattakesthecake.org.

General admission is $12 per day or $20 for a weekend pass–children under 12 get it free. General admission includes: viewing of cake competition entries, access to specialty vendors, informal demonstrations, special on-site competition, raffle drawings, and the awards ceremony. Classes require separate additional registration.

Here are some amazing cakes from past shows:

The Highland Mall location makes taking the Metro Rail to the event kind of a no-brainer since the stop is just across the street. And if you bring your car, there’s plenty of free parking!

Bring your family, your sweet tooth and at least one set of eyes ready for wonder.

Enjoy the show!
