Calling all bakers! Iron Cupcake: Earth competition - Think Globally, Cupcake Locally!!



Information below is directly from the Iron Cupcake website.

IRON CUPCAKE:Earth, yes a lofty name indeed. It should be, it is a way for bakers from anywhere, all over the world, to take place in the ultimate flavor challenge. Why? To promote world peace, one cupcake at a time. IronCupcake:Earth is in it's second year and is now over 425 bakers strong!

How does IRON CUPCAKE:EARTH work?
  • Once the Ingredient is announced, the baker has 4 weeks to develop and bake their interpretation of the challenge ingredient.
  • Challenges for IC:Milwaukee are completely different than the Earth version. Challenge ingredient will be announced on the 1st of each month.
  • The baker photographs their baking story and then posts about it on their own blog. In your post, please be sure to include reference and a links to the corporate prize providers donating that months prize as well as No One Puts Cupcake in a Corner, where all voting will take place.
  • Tag your post with: IRON CUPCAKE, EARTH, CHALLENGE, INGREDIENT NAME, DEMY, KEY INGREDIENT, HELLO CUPCAKE, BELLA COUTURE.
  • When the the blog post is up, the baker uploads their single favorite (two if there is a cross-section photo showing filling) photographic representation of their cupcake to the IRONCUPCAKE FLICKR GROUP and then e-mail notification of their post, with link; a taste-tempting summary of their recipe and their actual recipe to IronCupcakeEarth at wi.rr.com. All recipes will be saved for consideration for the future Iron Cupcake Cookbook, featuring bakers from all over the world, along with their blogs. In your subject line, please include IC:IngredientName. By participating in IRON CUPCAKE:EARTH you agree to have your recipe considered for publication in the future – with your name and blog address (optional) attached.
There are prizes!

How are the winners chosen?

New Voting Procedure for Iron Cupcake:Earth

Who decided the winner of Iron Cupcake:Earth?
You will. You and the entire blogosphere.

During the 5-days following the baking period, a summary of all cupcakes, their photo, and links to their blog post will be live on No One Puts Cupcake in a Corner. In the right hand column of the page there will be a button to vote for the 3 favorite cupcake, based on appearance and summary of each recipe.

Beginning with our December challenge, the means in which votes are collected will change.
  • Each voter will be allowed to vote for up to 3 cupcakes.
  • For every vote received, your cupcake will be entered in a drawing for the prize package. (Get 2 votes, you get 2 entries in the drawing. If you get 200, you get 200 entries.)
  • If you submit more than one cupcake, all of your votes now count toward the drawing - this can work in your favor.
  • As always, once you win a challenge, you are no longer eligible for the corporate prize package.
  • If a winner is drawn that has already won the corporate package, they will win the ETSY item(s) and a second name will be drawn for the corporate prizes.
  • Everyone is eligible for the ETSY prize(s), every month.

How did IRON CUPCAKE begin?

In April of 2008, blogger Sandy a.k.a Milwaukee Cupcake Queen and Chef Jeff of Fratellos Waterfront Restraurant in Milwaukee, Wisconsin challenged one another to a cupcake bake-off using obscure ingredients. Jeff had a history with cigarette cupcakes; Sandy had a history with bacon; and they had both wandered down the chili pepper path in the past. The ingredient of choice was Wasabi and thus, IRON CUPCAKE was born. There have been 7 challenges since and popularity continues to grow. Bloggers and readers of No One Puts Cupcake in a Corner, Sandy’s blog, have expressed their disappointment in not being able to participate and thus the birth of IRON CUPCAKE:Earth.

Iron Cupcake Earth 2.0
Our first challenge for the year is MUSIC! IronCupcake is trying to get to the Ellen Degeneres show. In honor of the most excellent ELLEN; her awesome talk show, her new gig on American Idol and her overall love for music - we are creating cupcakes based on music. So...pick a song - any song - and develop a cupcake around the title.



To help get IronCupcake onto The ELLEN Show, please take a moment to contact Ellen via facebook at "The Ellen DeGeneres Show"; on Twitter @TheEllenShow or on the website, http://ellen.warnerbros.com/. Tell them you want to see IronCupcake hit the national airwaves! With the local challenges and our launch of IronCupcake:Earth, year 2...there is no time like the present. The more who ask, the more likely it will happen!!!!
