Notes:

Classes 204 & 205. Ingredients for Polishes and Creams are required

Class 400. All elements of the exhibit to be made / created by the exhibitor. Judged on complexity
and practical application.

Class 401. All elements of the exhibit to be made / created by the exhibitor. Judged on complexity
and artistic value.

Class 402. Address used on label does not need to be representative of the exhibitor. The venue
location can be used as an alternative.

Classes 501-508. Recipe for the confectionery classes is to include the quantity of each ingredient
and a basic method of baking/cooking, such as order of combining ingredients with method and
time of cooking/baking. Temperatures need not be provided. (Some things get to remain a secret)

Classes 506 & 507. Both a jam and a chutney will contain sugar, although a jam would be much
sweeter, with the chutney having a more acidic, tangy flavour from the addition of vinegar. To
preserve a chutney a combination of vinegar and sugar are used, whilst in a jam it is the sugar
alone which acts as the preserving agent.

Honey and Beeswax (100 & 200 series) limited to Association beekeepers using products from
their own hives.

All other classes are open to family of Association beekeepers – the provenance of primary hive
products (Honey, Beeswax, etc.) should be stated on the Entry Form.
