“I’m looking for something unique. If you’re going to make brownies or you’re going to make a chocolate cake, boy it better be just the best chocolate cake I’ve ever had. But then again this is where creativity comes in, I want to be wowed” said Larry McClements a member of the SCV Foodies group who will be one of the Judges.

The donations are set to benefit the Unitarian Universalists Church of Santa Clarita. Residents are welcome to attend a 10:30 a.m. service before the event.

“The Unitarian faith believes in studying the world’s religions and not really being set with one dogma” said Eve Bushman, former board member of the church. 

About SCV Foodies

According to the SCV Foodie website the definition of a foodie is “being a foodie is about taking time to appreciate what you’re eating, and probably more importantly who you’re eating it with. Being a foodie is appreciating that someone has taken time to prepare the meal which you’re about to eat, and often times has done it not because it’s a job, but because it is a passion. Being a foodie is about shared experiences with a meal, both good and bad. Most importantly, being a foodie is about being inspired by what you eat; so much so that you you simply have to share it with someone else in the hopes that they are inspired too.”
