Sponsored by Campbellsburg Hardware, the Campbellsburg Country Festival Baking Contest will be Saturday, September 21st! Come out to the festival to see the competition - or to put your own skills to the test.

Contestants are allowed to enter their goods from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. at the Campbellsburg Community Building located at 21 W Oak St, Campbellsburg. The baked goods auction will take place at the shelter house at 3 p.m.

There are a number of categories to represent at the baking contest, such as:

  • Cakes (made from scratch)

  • Fruit Pies (filling & crust must be made from scratch - no canned filling permitted)

  • Rolled or Drop Cookies (made from scratch)

There are also a number of rules to be followed:

  • Contestants should enter a whole cake, pie, or a baker’s dozen cookies (13)

  • All entries must be presented in disposable containers, or if not, they will not be returned, and entries should be covered with clear plastic wrap

  • Entries must NOT require refrigeration

  • Filling, frosting, glazing, pie filling, and meringue, whether cooked or uncooked, are not permitted to contain cream cheese, whipped cream, unpasteurized milk or raw eggs/eggwhites (pasteurized eggs or eggs cooked to 160℉)

  • Home canned fruits are not permitted

  • Recipes must list which ingredients were used in each part of the entry (including pie crust and frosting) and are to be printed on an 8½” x 11” sheet of paper

  • Contestants’ names are not to be on either entry, or the recipe

  • Each contestant may enter only one item in each category but are permitted to enter in all categories

  • No recipe, container, or entry will be returned

Failure to comply with the above rules will result in points being deducted for each violation. The first place winner in each category will receive a $50 cash prize, each 2nd place winner will receive a $25 cash prize, and each third place winner will receive a $10 cash prize.
