Please note that if you do not meet the criteria your entry will not be submitted. ONLY amateur home bakers who do NOT sell their pies are qualified.

Pie Eating Contest

Try your luck at being the fastest eater! Contestants will compete against each other to determine who can eat 1 pie/cupcake down to the tin in the fastest time.

Wait for the signal to start – once signal is given contestants hands must remain behind their backs.
Winner will be declared after the participant swallows the entire pie/cupcake. Nothing should be left in the mouth.
Judges will determine the winner of the contest – all decisions are final.

Are there really any losers in this game?
