3rd Annual LA Cookie Con and Sweets Show Returns February 18-19
The West Coast's Largest Baking Convention takes place at the LA Convention Center
After selling out two years in a row, the LA Cookie Con and Sweets Show is returning for its third year. The West Coast's largest baking and pastry expo will take place February 18 & 19, 2017 at the Los Angeles Convention Center. Due to increased demand, the show is quadrupling its space over last year's event to make room for even more attendees and vendors. With over 50,000 guests expected throughout the weekend, sweets enthusiasts can enjoy free samples from over 275 local shops and national brands, meet their favorite foodie TV stars, watch baking demonstrations, and participate in hands-on workshops.
The LA Cookie Con and Sweets Show will be complete with five stages and classrooms for workshops focusing on Traditional Baking, Vegan/Gluten-Free/Paleo Baking, Cake Decorating, Cookie Decorating, and the Celebrity Guests stage. Attendees can also admire the incredible cake displays as part of the Decorator’s Showcase competition. 100% of the proceeds from the Decorator’s Showcase entry fees will benefit the Epilepsy Foundation of Greater Los Angeles.
Fun for the whole family: the Kids Zone will offer free face painting, cookie decorating, crafts, games and more.
