February is our Cakes and Bakes Month and we’ve whipped up a contest to get your creative baking juices flowing, with some pretty awesome prizes up for grabs.

What you need to do

We want you to create a Moonfruit-themed bake – anything from cakes and biscuits to bread and pastries (the more creative, the better). Hint: We’ll be looking for interesting colour and flavour combinations, show-stopping presentation, and interpretations of the word ‘bake’. That’s not to say we won’t be hugely impressed with a regular ol’ cake done with a bit of panache.

Once your masterpiece is ready, take a photo and send it to us along with your name, address and a link to your website (if you have one) at hello@moonfruit.com. We'll be asking potential winners how they came up with the idea and how they went about making it, so be prepared. And who knows, there could be extra brownie points for those who manage to send their bakes to Moonfruit HQ for quality testing...

Entries will be judged by our in-house panel of baking aficionados and the most impressive and imaginative bakes will win. We can’t wait to see what you come up with!

The competition is open to Moonfruiters as well as non-Moonfruit folk, so spread the word and get everybody you know baking. Encourage others to get involved by sharing your creations with us on Facebook and Instagram too – there’s no sense in keeping them to ourselves now is there?

The prizes

1st prize: KitchenAid Artisan mixer – in a colour of your choice

2nd prize: Cooking masterclass – at a cookery school of your choice

3rd prize: Baking books – of your choice (although we do love these by Laduree)

Winners will also get a year’s subscription to our Plus package worth £135 ($213). The Plus package includes numerous domain names, 150 products per shop, 10 websites and the mobile checkout. To see the full list of features visit www.moonfruit.com/pricing
