HOLLAND, Mich. — As a spring break treat, the Herrick District Library hosted a competition mimicking the Food Network’s “Cupcake Wars.”
More than 20 teens went head-to-head Wednesday to create two different cupcakes: the first cupcake could have any theme and the second had to reflect a book.
The contestants had 15 minutes to draw up a design and 45 minutes to decorate and the judges asked each teen to include a fruit roll-up into their design.
Sixth grader Celia Baerwalde won the competition with her first Pokemon-theme cupcake and her second cupcake inspired by the young-adult book “Warriors.” The second place runner-up went to Genevieve Manderfield with her design of a ladybug cupcake and a cupcake inspired by “The Selection.”
