Google Recipes - what do you think of it?

On February 26th, google released a new algorithm update to wipe out garbage content on the internet. While this is great news if you invest the time creating unique content on your site, if your site contains recipes, you're still out of luck.

 

In step with this new algorithm update, Google released Google recipes. So, now when you search for a recipe in this tab, the results are dominated by allrecipes.com and other big corporate websites.  Quite frankly, I don't know why…

Cupcake Contest

If you are entering your cupcakes into the contest, pretty please, label your photo Cupcake Contest. There are already tons of cupcake pictures on this site, so I can't assume that just because you add a cupcake photo that you are entering it into the contest.


Yes, you can enter more than one cupcake into the contest, but please only label ONE photo per entry. Otherwise, I have to pick from the photos. It also makes it very difficult for me when I go through the site trying…

Baby Shower Cake Contest

Hi Everyone,

We have a LOT of amazing contest entries this month. I am checking the site every hour for new entries.

Please don't be insulted if you find your cake isn't featured. It's easy to miss one when they are being added so quickly. If your cake is not featured, please let me know. I don't want to leave anyone out.

Thanks!

Terri

Chocolate Contest Entries

Hi everyone,

Right now, the site is experiencing some glitches due to an upgrade that took place earlier today. The Chocolate Contest entries are not visible right now. We're working to get this restored as soon as possible.

You can still enter the contest, but we won't be able to feature any more cakes until this is fixed.

Thanks for your patience!

June Bride Cake Contest

A lot of new contest entries are coming in today. We don't assume you are entering a wedding cake in the contest, since many of the wedding cakes on this site have not been entered. If you do mean to do so, please be sure to make the title of your cake picture - June Bride Contest.

If you are having an issue uploading a picture or figuring out how to do something with your contest entry, please post your question and we'll help you out.

Welcome Everyone!

CakesWeBake.com was created as a complement to my site Cake-Decorating-Corner.com. I found that people were asking me questions when they were in the middle of making a cake. Unlike the teenagers in my house, I'm not on the computer 24-7. So, I'd find that by the time I read the questions, it was already too late and I felt terrible. I wanted to find a way to put cake decorators in touch with one another in real time, enabling them to exchange… Continue
