The L'Arche Calgary Cake Walk is a display of cake at its finest. Top culinary chefs and novices compete to see who can create the most fantastic cake. The first L'Arche Calgary Cake was held in 2007 and is now an annual event, which draws 1,500 visitors annually and has netted over $300,000 for L'Arche Calgary's homes and programs for people with developmental disabilities.
What makes a double helping?
L'Arche Calgary and the Pastry Chef Guild of Alberta have teamed up to bring you two fabulous events on the same day showcasing cake and chocolate creations made by top local pastry chefs and talented novices.
The Lindt Chocolate competition is a bi-annual event presented by the Pastry Chef Guild of Alberta. This year L'Arche Calgary and the Guild have teamed up to jointly present both events. This partnership will allow us to help highlight each other's missions in the community and celebrate what can happen when we work together in unity!
