SNA Fall Cookoff jpeg 2015

     Since autumn is upon us, this is the time for baked goods made from that New England staple – apple.

The Summit Neighborhood Association’s annual bake off competition is set for 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 28 at Seven Stars bakery, 820 Hope St. and the featured ingredient is apple.

Everyone in the neighborhood is invited to make their favorite apple dishes and bring them to the friendly competition – in quantities sufficient to allow dozens of people to taste them. Then prizes will be awarded for the most delicious.

And since the festivities will be held just before Halloween, dressing in costumes is encouraged and there will be prizes for those too. There may even be olive oil and wine or beer tasting, but that’s still in negotiation.

In past years, there have been snow and rain storms, but the show must go on and is sure to be a gala seasonal happening.
