I am very pleased to announce the winner of the Great Sapience Bake Off's Fall 489 Season!

It was a very very close competition and our bakers traded places many times with each new judging! Many placings are by fractions of points!

Round One: Pie!
Bakers needed to make a pie, whether it is savoury or sweet!

1st Yvi, with a Heartwood fruit pie!
2nd Sekeres, with a hexagonal 'Waldgeist's Delight' pie
3rd Rasani, a boar belly-bourbon apple pie with a woven crust
4th Oriana, with a cream-topped whisky peach pie
5th Kaiara, with a pecan-topped pie

Round Two: Technical!
Bakers were challenged to make the Alaqsii Alysida Loaf I grew up with as a boy! They were given ingredients and a simple recipe. In order of closeness to what the bread should be we have: Sekeres, Yvi, and Oriana!

They all did a very good job! The bread is available to the bakers and all Crafters if you want a good rye loaf! (design 27642)

Round Three: Harvest Wreaths!
Bakers were to make a harvest wreath that used two kinds of bread, had some kind of filling, and was decorated!

1st Yvi, with a spiced harvest wreath of bread!
2nd Sekeres, with an 'Autumn's Breath' harvest-style loaf
3rd Oriana, with an apple and banana twisted cheesecake bread
4th Kaiara, with a rye and poppy bread wreath

I am so proud of all of our bakers and to announce the final ranking!

1st Yvi, winning 50 credits!
2nd Sekeres, winning 25 credits!
3rd Oriana, winning 15 credits!
4th Kaiara, winning 10 credits!
5th Rasani, winning 5 credits!

Thank you all! Each competitor has a copy of the recipe book from this season! Any who wish a copy please contact me, Kjell, while I figure out libraries!
