Terry had this to say about the contest; ' I think we're going to stick with gum paste flowers on this contest, because the next thing you know, we'll have piped flowers, modeling chocolate flowers, etc. making it difficult for the judges to do their job.' So what now?

Neryl, that was in response to questions regarding fondant flowers.  Look at the two posts above Terri's response and you'll see what I mean.

Deah - I've been going through and, if the flowers are not on a cake, I've been changing the titles to say "Ineligible - no cake" - the baker can then rename their photos to something other than the contest titles if they wish.  Saves some confusion when featuring photos - I know I've looked at them then.

Oops! Sorry Deah, when the page opened I only saw Jeri C's comment followed by Terry's comment. :)
