Subeta Birthday Cake Contest!



Subeta's 10th birthday is coming up! Yay! Fanfare! What better time than now to host a site-wide contest? This birthday is a special one, and we're going to let you design some of the items for our celebration. This time, we want to see what kind of awesome Subeta-themed cakes you can bake. Red velvet cake, cheesecake, pound cake, cupcakes, you name it! Show us what kind of cake you'd like to see as one of the official celebration items, and the top three winners, as voted by our staff, will be drawn up and used as official items for our big day. Decorate them as elaborately as you'd like! Our top winners will receive 1500 CSC and a copy of their item!
Rule Breakdown:
- Your cake must be edible and Subeta-themed. We're sure you have a ton of other creative resources, but we're hungry and want to see some real cakes!
- You can use small non edible decorations like candles, but we wouldn't want to be slowed down too much if we were going to eat these cakes ourselves.
- Include a description (500 characters or fewer) that you would want to be used for the on-site item should your cake win.
- Have fun!
Click here to submit your Subeta-themed cake. Don't forget to enjoy the cake with your friends and family after you submit your entry! We want to know that all of these cakes went into loving bellies.
All entries must be submitted by August 31st. After our staff votes and the winners are determined, the items will be drawn up for our 10th anniversary!
Lick the bowl for us!

Ohhhh fun. :)

Until August 31st? Closes at 11:59pm on August 31st, or closes August 31th 12:00am ?? Does anyone know?
I love to bake but don't know how to decorate and I start college again tomorrow and have 15 credit hours this semester. I won't be able to find the time, even if I had an idea... wish I could though! I look forward to seeing other cakes.
PS: THANKS, SUBETA TEAM for giving us all incentives to eat unhealthy for the next week or so... XD

Nice contest choice :) I won't participate because there's no ovens in my building, but looking forward to seeing all of your delicious cakes!

I am super excited to try to do this. I got my husband excited too (But mostly because he gets to eat a cake this weekend)
Question~ Can we submit more than one?

I have TERRIBLE luck with these contests. Looking forward to seeing what people come up with.


I'd actually love to do this, but the end date is my sister's birthday, so I don't know if I could get two cakes done. Or if we'd eat them.

I can bake but not decorate XD
my cakes taste amazing but look weird. can we just draw a cake for you instead ^^;

Fufufuu!! XD I´m not any special baker but I still want to try. c: This is just too sweet to be true!

Ha Ha! I just made a Carrot and Mahi mahi birthday cake for my cat's 10th birthday. Too bad I didn't take any photos of it before he and his kitty friends decimated it.
And just when I finally finished with my cake assignment for food and I have TONS of fondant left. Good timing Subeta,good timing.
aahhh i'd honestly like to try but i don't know if i have the time ~_____~ sounds super sweet though! (haha get it)
I love this idea and I love baking...but I'm no good at decorating, haha. Can't wait to see what others come up with, though!
Hahaha Andrea that's sweet! But I am way too pregnant to give any bothers about making a cake right now. That's why I'm making you all do it :P
@Andrea
Dude some of the best cakes Ive had are organic. All of the ones from my fav bakery dont use dye and such and they are amazing. Especially ones like carrot/almond crusted..etc So I dont think that should be a reason not to! I mostly cook that way myself. You just have to get creative. There are edible flowers and such out there to fancy things up if what you want is colour :]

The problem is my family just had two birthdays so we're all like, "No more baked goods..." and several of my friends have problems with gluten. I'm sure it will be a huge hit at the nearby shelter.
Now I just need an idea what to make. Chocolate is always good

I though of entering. Then I though of my last baking attempt and stopped thinking of entering. uvu Well, good luck, everyone!
As someone who only eats organic/non-chemical foods... and lives in the South, I won't be participating in this (because 1. LOL OVEN XD and 2. without the use of dyes it would be so plain and simple) HOWEVER.
I just wanna say that I really hope Ariel enters and is allowed to place because her RAINBOW CAKE is legendary and I would love to see what she'd come up with-- I feel the staff favortism shouldn't apply here because of obvious culinary reasons xD

Probably won't enter but this is such a creative and clever contest idea. Cannot wait to see the winners! (Or the entries if we're able...)
Your own creation! If you just used one of our cakes and won, we'd just draw the same cake again haha.
Can't wait to see what people come up with!! It's going to be kick ass, we do get to see pictures of the non winners too right?!

i'm up for this. I owe a friend or two cake anyway... just have to figure out how to decorate.... does the cake have to look like one from the site or just has to be subeta-themed? (Ie the mask contest had to make a mask similar to one already on the site). marshmallow fondant here I come!

finally!! cake i can do i can't draw to save my life but i have saved a few with my cake :p x

Now I want cake batter orz I don't have time to bake as much I want to. I'll just wait and stare at the tasty entries.XD
Far, you can make fondant at home instead of spending money on it :P I watched a pastry chef demonstrate making fondant from scratch for a Home Ec class in high school (he made a turtle with it). Much cheaper!

With this crowd, you won't have any difficulties finding a hungry cake-lover. But it's sweet that you're gonna give it to a homeless shelter, I'm sure you'll make a lot of people happy with your cake.

Ohhh!! Love this idea. I love baking but I know it's not feasible for me to join this time. Can we all see the pictures of the entries? I would love that! Also...one of my favorite subeta-versary items is always the cupcakes. I hope there'll be cupcakes too!!!! :D


Oh how fun! I'm a disaster in the kitchen, but I look forward to seeing what everyone else comes up with! c:

I'm going to have to put on my creative thinking cap and see if I can come up with something. Should be a lot of fun.

Wait, how do I incorporate Subeta into a Better-Than-Sex cake....
Well, I guess if I do that kind of cake it should be Better-Than-Cuddling cake....
