The Milford Library is hosting an edible book contest, with a judging event on April 7. Submissions can be literal or interpretive representations, and should relate to a book title, a book cover, or a “literary” design. Individuals, teams, and families are encouraged to participate.
Entrants must register between March 14 and April 2. Judging will take place at 2 p.m. in the library. Submissions should be brought by 1 p.m.
Representatives from the Milford Fine Arts Council, Scratch Baking, and Sweet Cupcasions will serve as judges.
Cake and punch will be served, and artists can take their creations home to enjoy. There will be a cake decorating demonstration after the judging ends.
Entries will be judged on: best in show, “punniest,” most creative use of ingredients, and most likely to be devoured.
Winners will be highlighted in a library display and online, and cookbooks will be added to the library collection in the winners’ honor.
The Milford Library is located at 57 New Haven Ave. in Milford. For more information, call the Children’s Department at 203-783-3312.
