Recently my husband T & I participated in the Aduki Vegan Bake-Off in Melbourne. It was held at the Kindness House on Brunswick Street, and I have to say I was really impressed with not only how many people showed up and competed, but also by how good all the food was!! After the judges tried each item, it was opened up to all the Vegan Vultures to sample for ourselves. People were hovering around tables, just waiting for the dishes to be brought back for tasting. We got to try samples of several dishes, and I must say there were some tasty sweets there!! I especially liked the Lamingtons!
So back to the competition... T baked a Sweet Onion & Eggplant Pizza, and I made Peach Crumble Cupcakes.
We both won our respective categories (Savoury & Cupcakes) and I was lucky enough to win the Grand Prize as well!! My prize was a gift basket of lovely vegan goodies, a very cute apron & potholder, some recipe books, and a cool comic book wallet! I obviously am thrilled and definitely have had my baking confidence boosted a bit :)
