Here is the info for the state show. I've been to the White Rose show in York and it was really neat.
Todo - I stink at geography also! I don't even know where most of the states are exactly...
So, has anything been set yet about anything? Are we talking about meeting on a weekend or evening? Feel free to pm me. I'm all for meeting somewhere in Quakertown or something. My only thing - should we meet at some restaurant or something like that since we don't know each other? Just wondering....

Hi All! I am very excited at the idea of another cake group forming! It's been a long time since Lancaster County had a group, and so many of the other cake clubs have disappeared as well. Sheila Miller's York White Rose Cake Club is one of the few-if not only-one still hanging on! I'm not a member of the club, but have been competing in their cake show for many years. For anyone interested- save the first Saturday in November each year for their cake show and competition!

I will be heading up to the PA ICES State Cake Show in State College again this year. Just my e-mail with the info from Kim.

There will be two demonstrations before the big, hands-on class with Betty Van Norstrand: one is a grooms cake demo, and the other one will be by me...and I haven't decided what I'm doing yet!

On Sunday afternoon (after the hands on classes), Kim Morrison will do a demo of gumpaste gerbera daisies and Sheila Miller will be doing a demo- to be determined.

Even if you just want to come for the day-watch the demos, check out the cakes and talk to lots of decorators...please join us! We would be more than happy to chat with you about the new group!
