Builders, chefs, and community members teamed up today to start the “Home Sweet Gingerbread Home” competitions at
NorthPark Center.
Lifestylist® Suzanne chaired the event which looks like it will become an annual favorite.Chef and cookbook author Karel Ann Tieszen teamed up with
Shared Housing board member Mona Lincoln and TX State Fair Celebri-chef Peter Clarac (he was a winner in the Oprah cook-off) to decide which of the houses would be awarded the coveted blue ribbon. Pastry Chef Instructor at the
Art Institute of Dallas Nina Hunter amazed the judges with her beautiful victorian home complete with playful penguins enjoying the pool in the backyard and was awarded first place.
Thursday the “Builders and Bakers” competition will be taking place from 12pm to 4pm also at NorthPark. Teams comprised of members from the
Home Builders Association of Greater Dallas will be creating homes on-site with celebrity chefs from
Stephan Pyles,
Sambuca,
Old Hickory Steakhouse at the Gaylord Texan,
DC’s Catering and
The Cupcakery. They will then be judged and awarded various prizes in different categories.
The competitions will benefit two great organizations -
Shared Housing Center and
HomeAid / Homebuilders Care, both which break the cycle of homelessness and abuse in the Dallas area.
