Looking For Some Friendly Cooking Competition? Here Are The Newest Contests You Can Enter In Pennsylvania

Are you known for your marvelous muffins? Or maybe you make a killer pineapple upside cake.

In either case, get your recipes ready for new culinary contests at this year's Great Allentown Fair, which will be held Aug. 29 to Sept. 4.

The fair, in its 165th year, is an annual draw for amateur cooks and bakers looking to show off recipes for a chance to win ribbons and bragging rights. There are also contests for a host of other creative pursuits such as photography, quilt-making, and more.

The deadline to enter the culinary contests is Aug. 5 so that leaves you with just about two months to figure out what you'd like to enter.
