Placeholder.

Making a cake this weekend and updating here then. Don't expect much though, we are baking amateurs Grin

Oh shoot, a pie is different than a cake? Ok we eat the cake now and make a pie ( in German it's basically the same ) , need some more days then, hahaha.

After making a cake some weeks ago because I didn't know there is a difference we did the deed today.

Here is our Aomori Apple Pie. It took a while as we thought to make it Sakura themed (because sakura season is starting now in Japan) but as it still takes some weeks we chose to make a simple apple pie.

I hope you like it, even though the BTC got a little dark. Grin

That cutout of the Bitcoin symbol must have been quite challenging did it not? Thank you for your submission @AHOYBRAUSE, I'll add it to the list.

Hello friends.

The cake I sent for the contest called "King Bitcoin".

I did not use artificial substances, everything is natural. It has orange and cherry sauce. Both grow in my garden. The taste was great. I will say bon appetit to my friends on the forum, but you are all far away.

(...)

It looks delicious, specially considering the fact that you got most of the ingredients from your garden, I guess it's almost a 100 % biological pie (exempt for the pastry dough I guess). Thank you, I'll also add it to the list!

My own definition of pie and how I have always seen pie being made and presented to me on several occasions, I hope my home made and first time baking meet the requirements for this context.

-Goodluck everyone and hope we all improve in our baking skills and prepare more for future baking context.
(...)

I'm sorry, we can't consider the entry as valid as that wouldn't be fair for other contestants. If everyone decided to submit their own interpretaion of what a pie really is then the evaluation would also be very subjective. However, you still got time to make a pie as according to it's definition in the OP

Do we already know more details about voting process?
Would be nice to vote for multiple participants because we have so many interesting submissions.

We do have details about the voting process @1miau, per the OP:

Quote

2nd Phase - Voting process from 15th of March to 29th of March (23:59:59 GMT). Winner shall be announced on the 31th of March.
- During this phase, users are only able to vote in 1 entry from the 1st Phase, but are free to edit their vote until the 2nd phase ends.

When we first discussed the voting phase on the previous thread[1] we were focused on trying to balance the voting time and the contest popularity (I'll be honest with you and say that I didn't hope for the contest to have this kind of acceptance, I'm really glad it did!). The single vote rule was made so that users were really aware that their vote mattered so they would really need to think about who deserves it. Having >1 kinda makes a user "relax" their constrains that make then evaluate each post because they know they are able to vote in more than one. What do you think of this thinking process? Is it fair? Too harsh perhaps?

Oh Wow. A lot of Delicious Pie has already been made.
This was the first time I tried to bake a pie. I am the worst at decorating/designing something. My Egg-milk pie doesn't look good, but it tests the best. Unfortunately, I can't invite all of you guys to take a bite Grin

. I can't compete with others. But, never mind. Just for fun.

Here is my submission:

Recipe:
All-purpose flour, sugar, salt, butter, Condensk Milk, 8 Big Eggs.
As I said, I am the worst at designing something. The topping was Toast powder and Souce.
(...)

I wouldn't say you're the worst, the pie actually looks good, congratulations ! Don't be so hard on yourself, I'm sure you did pretty great. I've added it to the list!

Cool contest.
I am very happy to be able to participate in the Pie Cake Contest. it took me about 2-3 hours to complete it.
(...)

I'm baffled at the fact that you were able to basically write so perfectly within your pie puloweh555! That's a sick design you've got there, congratulations! I'll add it to the list!

Quote from: Porfirii on Today at 10:14:38 AM

Beautiful Pie puloweh555! you have to have a very good hand to write all those details.

I finished mine yesterday, but it was very late so that's why I'm posting it today.
(...)

Very nice looking pie Porfirii! At first I though that it was carrot filling but then I found out it was pumpkin (I hope I understood correctly your Spanish!). I'll add it to the list as well.

Quote from: johnsaributua on Today at 12:53:49 PM

I'm very happy to see an event like this, I'm so excited from yesterday. Making this milk pie should have a BTC, chocolate sweetened condensed milk isn't too visible to write.

joy, satisfaction and happiness is what I feel, thank you OP and the contributors involved in this thread, you inspire me that bitcoin is art and the community has lots of interesting things that are fun, discussions are getting more interesting and I think this is entertainment in a challenge.

one day maybe I can join other events, if merit income is prioritized.

today I just want to share that this is the first time I have forced myself to make a cake like this, armed with a YouTube tutorial.

my family gives me satire and they laugh at me, but it doesn't feel too bad. and when they try it they quite like it. hihihi

this mission makes me happy
(...)

Banana pie is always a good pie! I'll also add it to the list.

Quote from: fillippone on Today at 01:05:35 PM

I am very tempted to enter this competition, but I think I have to focus on my priorities and stick to pizza making.
Bakery is an extremely difficult process, so I think an extra value would be for those who took pictures in the making of the process!

Good luck for all the participants, and maybe I will take part in the second edition!

As someone who is also a pizza maker (sadly I wasn't around when the contest aired) for sure if you're able to make a good looking pizza you'll also be able to make a good looking pie! While you'll be more than welcome to appear in the 2nd edition, I still have some hope that you'll submit in this 1st edition

, it failed 3 times and the last one is like the picture below).
(...)

Thus my entry, Thanks to RickDeckard and the sponsors for hosting this great event and I congratulate all the attendees for participating, Your pies must be delicious!!

Let's enjoy this contest and have fun !!

Somehow I've missed this submission and I'm sorry for that (I guess there was an edit after I initially browsed the page). Nevertheless, that's a great looking pie, the logo looks really nice! I'll also add it to the list.

Quote from: bangjoe on Today at 02:24:49 PM

It was my first time entering a cake contest, and it was really fun, but I had so little time to do it that I didn't really have a very mature concept for my pie. But I am very confident in my results.
Outer materials:

12 Tablespoons of flour
1 tablespoon of powdered sugar
2 tablespoons of Butter
1 egg yolk
1 tablespoon of water

Middle ingredients:

11 Tablespoons of water
2 Sachets of skm
1 egg
Mayzene flour
liquid vanilla

I named this pie
SAD PIE
Because right before making this pie I parted ways with my girlfriend. Cry

Hope you like it

(...)

Don't be sad bangjoe, it's only natural that you'll find those kind of events on your life, I'm sure you're not the only one in this community. Do remember that life goes on and I'm sure you'll eventually find someone. It looks to me that she lost a great pastry chef, congratulations on your entry! I'll add it to the list!

Quote from: Ryu_Ar1 on Today at 05:32:32 PM

The concept was a milk pie but I didn't have enough cooking utensils so it was done improvisedly Cheesy

This did not diminish my high intention to enter this contest.
(...)

Nice pie Ryu! I'll also add it to the list.

Quote from: hopenotlate on Today at 07:10:06 PM

Here we go with my submission.
I prepared a cake consisting of cocoa sponge cake, mascarpone cream, cream and cappuccino syrup ... and a secret ingredient which, according to our local tradition, is handed down only from parents to children only few moments before dying Grin

.
The inside of the bitcoin symbol has been decorated with orange marmalade.
The cream decoration containing the BTC simbol has the shape of a comic strip balloon to pay tribute to this forum.
(...)
It was indeed funny joining and the pie was very tasty Wink

Thanks for hosting this contest.

Quote from: Rabata on Today at 07:42:52 PM

I would never have dared to do this if Bitcoin Talk had not taken such a step. I can't tell you how good my pie looks. But it was tasty and great experience for me. I succeeded after a long struggle. I am eternally grateful to the BitcoinTalk forum.
(...)

It breaks me to say this, but sadly we can't accept both submissions since they are not considered pies Sad

. They look delicious but it wouldn't be fair for the remaining participants to accept submissions that aren't pie related, thus we won't be able to accept the submissions. Don't feel discouraged as you still got time to participate! I do hope that the cakes were delicious (they do seem like it!). Here's some guidance as what a pie is[2] - I also have the definition in the OP.

Thank you everyone for the amazing submissions we've received so far (and for the ones I'm sure we'll still receive!). For anyone reading you still have, per the time of this post, roughly 2 days to submit your creation! Don't feel discouraged as you'll always end up with a pie to eat after taking a picture of it
