You Decide the Baker’s Best!

Five local independent bakeries vie to see who comes up with the “Baker’s Best Gingerbread House”. The competition is an effort to raise money for the Erie City Mission during the annual WXTA County 98 Phonathon.

The Phonathon is scheduled for Tuesday, December 18th from 6am until 7pm on the Main Stage at the Millcreek Mall (just behind Santa Claus).

One of the highlights of the daylong event is a display of 6 beautiful and unique gingerbread houses that have been painstakingly handcrafted by the following bakeries:

  • Betty’s Cookie Korrell (2 entries)
  • Mason Farms
  • Cookie Mug & Creations
  • Ye Olde Sweet Shoppe
  • Annette’s Kitchen

You will get the chance to vote with your dollars to see which is the best. The winner takes home cash prizes courtesy of our sponsor PJ Stearns Marketing Services. Each gingerbread house will be silent auctioned. The highest bidder gets to take the house home just in time for the holidays.

All money raised directly benefits Erie City Mission programs that House the Homeless, Feed the Hungry & Recue the Lost.

Please make the mall main stage a stop on your Christmas shopping schedule on December 18th!
