Train from Shearton Downtown Phoenix Gingerbread Competition

The train and the village will be back along with the decorated Christmas Tree.

This is a time to have fun with your gingerbread talents and artistic skills. If you’ve not made one, you’re missing out.

I’ve made many, from sleighs to houses. See what you can come up with and enter.

As someone who has seen some of the best gingerbread displays in the U.S., I feel you have a great opportunity. With this only the 3rd year, get on board and have fun. Let the child in you out and the creative talent go wild. A hit, made your cardboard patterns first.

Deadline has been extended to 11-22-11, but the gingerbread creation would have to accompany application. For entree details and application contact: Kelley Karnes or via email kelley.karnes@sheraton.com. For further details call Executive Chef Frank Belosic at 602.817.5425.
