Campus bakers compete for bragging rights while supporting a good cause.

Forget The Great British Bake Off- the University of La Verne served up its own sweet competition with the first-ever ULV Holiday Baking Classic, bringing faculty and staff together for a campus-wide bake-off in support of the Leo Food Pantry.

Organized by Enrollment Management, in conjunction with the School of Professional and Continuing Education, the Holiday Baking Classic served as both a friendly competition and a fundraiser aimed at supporting students experiencing food insecurity.

From Best Cookies to Best Bread and the coveted Best in Show, faculty and staff showcased their baking talents with an array of homemade treats that made the competition as fun as it was delicious.
