BLUE RIBBON CARROT CAKE
The best carrot cake ever, this cake has a rich buttermilk caramel glaze poured over the warm cake before icing with the cream cheese frosting. This recipe came from "Culinary Crafts", a Salt Lake City based catering company, but I have tweaked this recipe a little to suit my taste. * COOKS NOTE: I use only REAL butter, and REAL vanilla. Carrots should be finely grated. The amount of powdered sugar in the cream cheese frosting depends on how sweet you like your frosting. . . I prefer a less sweet cream cheese frosting that tastes more like cheesecake..

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F Generously grease a 9x13 baking dish or two 9 inches cake pans.
- Sift flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt together; set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat eggs. Add oil, buttermilk, sugar and vanilla; mix well.
- Add flour mixture to the egg mixture; blend. Then add pineapple, carrots, coconut, and nuts; stir well.
- Pour batter into prepared baking dish or pans. Bake about 55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.
- While cake is baking, prepare Buttermilk Glaze: In a large saucepan, combine sugar, baking soda, buttermilk, butter and corn syrup; bring to a boil. Lower the heat to simmer and cook 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Glaze will be a caramel color. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. NOTE: A large saucepan is needed because mixture will expand after coming to a boil. It will simmer down after a couple of minutes of cooking.
- Once cake is done, remove cake from oven and poke holes in hot cake with a fork or meat fork. Slowly pour buttermilk glaze over hot cake. Cool cake in pan until glaze is totally absorbed, about 15 minutes. Turn out of pan, if desired.
- Cool cake completely. Prepare Cream Cheese Frosting: Cream butter and cream cheese until fluffy. Add remaining ingredients. Mix till smooth. Frost cooled cake. Chill till frosting is set. Serve chilled.

BLUE RIBBON POUND CAKE
Steps:
- Sift together the flour, baking powder, salt and nutmeg and set aside.
- Cream butter until very light and fluffy, then add sugar gradually, creaming all the while. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition just enough to mix.
- Combine the milk and the flavoring (lemon, vanilla or lemon and vanilla). Add the sifted dry ingredients to the creamed mixture alternately with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients.
- Pour into a well-buttered-and-floured 10-inch tube pan, filling to within about 2 inches of the top. Bake in a 300 degree oven for about 1 hour and 20 minutes, or until cake just begins to pull from the sides of the pan and a finger pressed gently on the top of the cake leaves a print that vanishes slowly.
- Cool cake upright in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes, then turn out on the rack and cool to room temperature before cutting. Serve as is or garnish, if you like with a dusting of confectioners' sugar and a few red, ripe strawberries

JUMBO LUMP BLUE CRAB CAKES
Steps:
- Pick over the crabmeat to remove any shells. Be gentle, as the lumps of crab are delicate and will fall apart. Set aside. Mix together the mayonnaise, seafood seasoning, scallions, basil, eggs, and salt and pepper. Pour mixture over the crabmeat and with your hands gently mix together. Sprinkle the bread crumbs over the crab mixture and continue to mix. Divide the mixture into 4 parts and mold the cakes with your hands (do not rinse off you hands between mixing and forming the cakes, as it is mixture on your hands that help the cakes stay together).
- Refrigerate the cakes for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Paint the crab cakes with a minuscule amount of oil and sear in a hot oven-safe skillet or on a griddle top until lightly golden brown on both sides. The cakes have such little binder that you need to be careful when flipping them over so that they don't fall apart. Place the pan in the oven for about 5 minutes, or to heat through.
- Serve with a red Cocktail Sauce and/or a flavored aioli.
- Mix all ingredients together in a small bowl. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

BLUE RIBBON WHIPPING CREAM POUND CAKE
I got this recipe from another 'blue ribbon junkie' friend of mine years ago. It is very firm and very fine textured. It is the only cake I use when doing cake sculpting, and works very well in the 2 piece cake molds. The lowest ribbon it has ever worn, when entered into baking competitions is a Blue Ribbon, and it has gotten as high as Best of Show at a State Fair.

BLUE-RIBBON APPLE CAKE
From Cooks Illustrated: Finding a quick, simple cake with big apple flavor is a lot harder than it should be. We found that, more often than not, apple cakes are simply spice cakes studded with cubes of raw apple. Or they are as complicated as fine pastry. We wanted a simple, easy-to-make cake in which the sweet-tart flavor of the apples was the star of the show. Here's what we discovered: Test Kitchen Discoveries The apples must be cooked before baking to bring out the best of their flavor and reduce the juices that would otherwise turn the cake mushy as they steam. Cooking the apples in butter and sugar until soft adds a deep, caramel flavor to the cake. Not any apple will do. Tart Granny Smith apples provide the brightest, strongest apple flavor and most toothsome texture. Many other varieties turned bland and mushy once baked. For the batter, we favor a simple sour cream-style cake above the rest. The crumb is tender and the slight tanginess of the sour cream cuts through the cake's richness. Lots of recipes use Bundt pans or high-sided cake pans, but we found a low 9-inch cake pan yields the best ratio of cake to apple. Cooling the cake for five minutes before turning it out of the pan allows the caramel on the bottom of the pan time to harden just enough to stick to the apples, not the pan. "Granny Smiths are the best choice because they hold their shape nicely and are tart. Other apples that hold their shape when cooked, such as Cortlands, can also be used in this recipe. Serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream."

Steps:
- Adjust oven rack to center position and heat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly butter 9-inch cake pan.
- For the Apples: Place butter in large heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. Once butter has stopped foaming, add sugar and stir to combine. Continue to cook until sugar turns dark brown (it should look like dark brown sugar), about 2 minutes, swirling pan occasionally. Add salt and apples and fold with spatula to combine. Cook, stirring often, until apples have softened slightly and juices are thickened and syrupy, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove pan from heat and spoon apples into prepared cake pan.
- For the Cake:.
- In small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup sour cream, egg, yolk, and vanilla until well combined.
- Place flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in large bowl. Use electric mixer on low speed for 15 seconds to blend. Add butter and remaining 1/4 cup sour cream and mix on low speed until dry ingredients are moistened, 1 to 2 minutes. Increase speed to medium and mix for 2 minutes. Add sour cream/egg mixture and beat on medium-high, scraping down sides of bowl, until batter is homogeneous and fluffy, about 1 minute.
- Spoon batter over apples and gently spread out to thin layer that covers apples. Bake until cake is dark golden brown, feels set, and cake tester comes out clean when inserted in center, 35 to 40 minutes. Transfer pan to wire rack and let cool for 5 minutes.
- Place serving plate over top of pan and invert. Let cake sit inverted for about 1 minute without tapping or shaking pan. Cake will slowly detach itself. Once cake is on platter, gently remove pan. Serve warm (not hot) or at room temperature.
KENTUCKY BLUE RIBBON ALL-BUTTER POUND CAKE
This is the recipe my Grandmother would make every year during the holidays. I found the recipe tucked in her Bible when she passed, and it was written in her Grandmother's handwriting. It's been in my family for at least 7 generations, and in 2012, I won a Blue Ribbon at the Kentucky State fair by following her exact instructions. Tastes like pure love!

29 AWARD WINNING CAKE RECIPES TO WIN THE BLUE RIBBON …
From morningchores.com
Estimated Reading Time 8 mins
- Lemon Cake. My mind has been on a lemon cake for a while now. The idea of a light and airy cake, giving you both sweet and natural flavors sounds delicious.
- Shirley Temple Cake. Still having the natural flavors on my mind, I think this recipe looks delicious. I like the cherries and the fact that there is no actual icing, instead, they have a sugarcoating overtop the cake.
- Triple Chocolate Poke Cake. Venturing away from the natural and on to the sweet, decadent flavor of chocolate. I think this cake sounds delicious and I like the idea of the moistness you know it’s going to have since it is a poke cake.
- Healthy Vanilla Maple Greek Yogurt Cake. Going back to something quite a bit lighter, I think this would win simply because it is flavorful but still light.
- Texas Sheet Cake. Texas sheet cake cookies were one of the winners this year at our fair. I understand why, as Texas sheet cake is very delicious and it has the name of Texas in it.
- Strawberry Lemon Cheesecake. A lemon cheesecake might be a winner in the first place; However, adding a strawberry crust to it will surely put it over-the-top and make it the blue ribbon prize winner.
- The Best New York Crumb Cake. The first time I ever had crumb cake I felt like I had died and gone to heaven. Found in the gas station across the street from my house, I stopped there on a regular basis to pick this up before I learned how to make it.
- Vintage Cake. What I love about this cake is that you think you’re getting a delicious vanilla cake and then towards the end, you realize there’s a hint of decadent chocolate waiting for you at the bottom.
- Hazelnut Latte Cake. This one comes from the heart as I absolutely love anything coffee and who doesn’t love a Nutella type flavor with the hazelnut? Combining the two sure sounds like a winner to me.
- Tres Leche Cakes. I had a student who wanted to make this for the fair this year. Unfortunately, she did not get her paperwork done in time but I do feel like this would win as it is very moist and tender and still brings a reminder of our heritage to the Texans who are passionate about that.
