Cookie Jar Contest

Cookie Jar

Cookie Jar Contest

Sponsored by Rosauers and The Nez Perce County Fair Board

Entry time is from 3:00 PM until 8:00 PM on Fair Tuesday, in the Food Department

  • Enter an assortment of fancy cookies made from different kinds of batters and doughs in a variety of colors with original decoration, if desired.
  • The container MUST be a one (1) gallon clear glass jar with wide mouth and lid so that the jar may be tightly sealed. The jar may be decorated if desired, but extra "attention getters" will not be permitted.
  • The jar must be filled and contain not less than seven (7) kinds of cookies.
  • The judge will not need to open the jar to taste the cookies inside. Cookie samples need to be placed SEPARATELY in zipper food storage bags or wrapped in food-safe plastic wrap, so flavors don't blend and are fresh, not stale.
  • All jars should be picked up by entrant after 3:30 PM on Sunday.

First Place - $50
Second Place - $35
Third Place - $20
