TEAM SIGN-UP

Is there a fee for entering a house?
No.

What are the guidelines for creating my house(s)?

  • Your house must be mounted on a sturdy base, suitable for moving it around.

  • The scene must fit on a MAXIMUM 1ft by 2ft board; larger entries will not be accepted. If you have something else in mind, please contact Minna. Coordinate with the business on location/size.

  • No gelatin (it can create mold) and no buttercream frosting (it can melt).

  • We recommend using Royal Icing to hold it all together. Other icings are not strong enough and tend to melt.

  • No craft kits.

  • No artificial interior materials, such as Styrofoam or wood, are to be used to construct or decorate the house.

  • Contestants may decorate their entry with non-edible figures.

When should I drop off my house?
Houses may be dropped off on December 12th. 

What happens to my house after the event?
You need to pick it up by December 24th. Please coordinate with your business host.
