Our 35th Annual Gingerbread Extravaganza was another sweet triumph for cake decorators young and young at heart. Thank you for participating.
We invited school students and adults to submit photos of their drawings and decorated gingerbread homes to enter our annual competition.
The coloring contest entries were evaluated by a jury, while Facebook votes determined the winners of the gingerbread decorating contest, including the Viewers’ Choice Award.
All winners were announced on Facebook Live at the Arkansas State Capitol on Dec. 11, 2022.
James Horton with J-Lab Entertainment of Pine Bluff provided several renditions of Christmas music via trumpet including audience sing-alongs.
And here are the winners:
