The Vegan Bake-Off Dessert Competition

Ah, mid-February. You’ve finally lost those five pesky holiday pounds. You’ve managed to slip on the ice only once all winter (what ice? what winter?). And now Valentine’s Day is upon us. But the best part? The first-ever NYC Vegan Bake-Off Dessert Competition


 


Whether you want to indulge in the nutty delights of the very best amateur vegan bakers in town or be the maker of non-GMO goodies (we know you have a super-secret all-natural vegan recipe for dark chocolate brownies that you’re dying to share with the world, right?), head to The Bell House on Sunday, February 10 for the first Vegan Bake-Off, presented by the skint. The event is open to 15-20 everyday bakers who've got the baked goods to compete for the title of The Bestest, as voted for by judges and attendees. From cookies and mini-cupcakes, to pastries, tarts, brownies, fudges and bars, the Vegan Bake-Off is sure to be a sweet, sweet sugar high.
