Mistress Brigitte has issued her dessert challenge! NB: No Chocolate in the competition due to HRM’s allergies. No exceptions!
Entrants should bring a dessert (or desserts, you may enter more than once) to fit into:
Trews -- You can conceal much in your trews, so entries in this category with less than authoritative documentation, and perhaps not fit into a particular pre-17th C place or date.
Kilts – Kilts embrace everything without necessarily concealing. These entries will be held to a higher degree of scrutiny, and should have full documentation and come from a particular period of pre-17th C culture.
Brigitte and her panel of judges will sample all entries, but desserts will be shared by all guests of the event!
Questions may be directed to Brigitte Flamin <111841@members.eastkingdom.org> (Christine Larsson)
Also if you could post this about dietary concerns/allergies, that would be great!
Persons with allergies or special dietary needs must contact the feastocrat no later than 15 October, 2019 regarding food for the Crown Tourney held on 9 November, 2019.
***Please bring your own feast gear in order to keep our events more sustainable and keep paper and plastic trash to a minimum.***
