CUPCAKE WARS
You’ve seen the T.V. program . . . now it’s your turn to show everyone what you’re made of when it comes to baking decorations! Utilizing a variety of frostings, candies, confectionary accoutrements, and a few other surprise items, teams are challenged to design and decorate the best cupcake presentation, to be tasted by participants and judges, alike. Whether it be a tiered tower, worthy of a royal wedding, a pyramid that would rival those in Giza, or something entirely original, there’s no place for idle hands in this kitchen, as teams attempt to out-design their competitors. Sugar and spice and everything nice . . . that’s the name of the game with our Cupcake Wars challenge . . . a confectionary competition worthy of Food Network.
The Experience At A Glance
After the formation of teams and some spirited activities to get the energy flowing, teams complete various mental and creative challenges, using iPads and Premier Pursuits®, our propriety app, in order to earn their supplies.
We provide each team with the same set of basic tools, as well as general guidelines, but we’ve eliminated the detailed instruction manual. With the guidance of a team captain, participants work with, and alongside, each other, drawing on individual fortes.
We believe that no team challenge is complete without some sort of live publicity presentation highlighting the team’s hard work, spirit, and collaboration. Your participants create and perform this presentation for their colleagues, often resulting in great laughs and thunderous applause for all. This, along with creating a unique team name and logo, further enhances the overall experience.
The penultimate component of this experience is a step-by-step viewing of the cupcake presentations, followed by a tasting of the cupcakes, at each team’s station, all while the judges tabulate the scores. Ultimately, the team that showcases the best cupcake presentation, and earns the highest cumulative score from all of the various challenge components, wins the gold medals.
Whether it be a post-dinner activity, or a stand-alone affair, Cupcake Wars will have your participants buzzing on a high . . . sure, it may partially be due to the sugar, but we think this is one sweet interactive experience! You will, too!
