IDIM DIY Bakery is bringing back Bakers Parade, its annual interschool DIY baking competition, for its third consecutive year at IDIM DIY Bakery, SM North EDSA, on Sept. 30, 2026.
Created to give graduating students a platform to showcase their talent beyond the classroom, Bakers Parade brings together aspiring bakers from colleges, universities and culinary schools for a live baking competition that celebrates creativity, innovation and craftsmanship. This year, 30 student participants will compete by baking and decorating their own 6-inch cakes based on the theme “Merry and Magical Christmas.” As part of the competition, each participant will also submit an original cake recipe for judging.
