Pie Contest

Handmade Pie Contest Rules

Crusts and fillings must be made from scratch.
Cream pies, dairy (such as quiches), and meat pies are not accepted for judging or consumption due to food safety laws. (Eggs can be used in crust, nut pie fillings, or egg washes.)
Enter as many different pies as you would like. Up to 3 pies on a registration form.
Each pie must be 8-10 inches in diameter. The covered pie plate/pan must be labeled with your name and phone number. Your dish will be returned after pie sales are completed.
Each entry must include the name of the baker and name of the pie (be creative with your name!)
