Many young bibliophiles headed to the Dawson County Library July 11 for a cupcake competition that tested the kids’ decorating abilities with their edible creations. Kids flocked to the supply table to stock up on candies, cookies and colorful frosting to bring their literary inspired cupcake art to life.
The challenge was intense as kids were limited to 45 minutes to decorate one cupcake in the theme of their favorite book or book series and could only use three different design elements like pretzels, cookies or candies along with colored frosting to bring their favorite book scenes to life.
