Cork Sugarcraft Exhibition


We just love our trips to Ireland; we Honeymooned here and we have made both friends and many wonderful memories in the Emerald Isle. So it was lovely to be back in Cork City for the biannual Sugarcraft Exhibition at Little Island at the Radisson Blu Hotel.

There were 300 entries into the Competitions - the largest number ever, and in all the years we have been coming here the standard has got better and better every time. This year was no exception and over the two days of the show there were many comments regarding the standard of the work, which, even to a layman like me, was exceptional. 

Exceptional Work...


As always, Frankie was busy demonstrating; Tiny Shoes on the stand and Fancy Dressed Babies and Fairies in the Demonstration Rooms and the show was busy all over the two days with Sunday afternoon - Mother's Day -  proving to be just as popular as the Saturday.

The Craic was good too; Murphy's here in Cork, not Guinness, with a Jamieson's chaser - or so I'm told, the Cork Sugarcraft girls looked after us so well, and made us so welcome, that it was a real wrench to leave. Unfortunately, the Ferry Company tried to help, cancelling our early morning crossing due to the severe weather, but we got across on a bumpy little catamaran Ferry later that evening which tried its best to relieve us of our hearty meals, but we're made of sterner stuff, and we survived both the crossing and the snow storm that hit the South East corner of England and made our midnight drive across Kent a minor adventure.

Worth it?

Every single wave tossed, Snow flurried moment!

Can't wait until 2015!
