Sweet P's Pantry: Celebrating Award-Winning Confections at the Wisconsin State Fair
At Sweet P’s Pantry, we believe that the secret ingredient in our confections is love—and a dash of friendly competition! Each year, we look forward to the Wisconsin State Fair, where we have the opportunity to showcase our delicious creations and compete with the best confectioners in the state. Our award-winning treats have delighted fair-goers and judges alike, and we’re excited to continue this tradition in 2024.
Past Winners: Sweet P’s Pantry’s Hall of Fame
Our journey of sweet success began with our Cashew Almond Toffee, a standout that took home the prestigious 2017 State Fair award. This delectable treat, with its perfect balance of crunchy nuts and buttery toffee, set the bar high for all our future creations. Not long after, our Rosemary Salt & Pepper Pecans wowed the judges with their savory twist on a classic favorite.
Adding to our proud list of winners are our Wisconsin Cherry Caramels, which have captured the essence of local flavors and earned high praise from judges, and our Margarita Pecans, celebrated for their unique blend of tangy and savory flavors. These awards are a testament to our commitment to quality and our passion for creating the finest confections.
2024 Submissions: A Taste of Excellence
This year, we are thrilled to present two exceptional confections that we believe are strong contenders for the State Fair’s top honors.
First, we have our Spiced Orange Pecans. These delightful morsels bring a burst of citrusy goodness combined with a warm spice blend that will dance on your taste buds. The combination of sweet, tangy orange and aromatic spices creates a unique and irresistible flavor that we can’t wait for everyone to try.
Next up is our Ruby Cherry Almond Toffee. This toffee is not just a treat—it’s an experience. The luscious ruby chocolate, with its naturally fruity notes, pairs perfectly with tart cherries and crunchy almonds, all enrobed in our signature buttery toffee. This new creation is sure to capture the hearts (and taste buds) of the judges and fair-goers
