The Finishing Touches Display Salon took place during the LACA conference on Wednesday 7th and Thursday 8th July.
For the second year running, Vicky Scott, who works for school caterer Taylor Shaw in Durham, took the Best in Show prize for her decorated novelty cake depicting a garden festival, brimming with imaginative characters that wowed the judges.
In 2009 she won top prize for her representation of the Wallace & Gromit characters, and earlier this year she took part in the static salon display at Hotelympia winning silver for her novelty cake creation.
This year there were eight categories, which included two new ones for bread rolls and a floral sugarcraft display piece, and the entries were exceptionally high in number recognising the entrants keenness in being able to showcase their talents to a wider audience.
