Thanks to everyone who participated in our Birthday Cake Photo Contest and helped make Slashfood's first anniversary a memorable one, though of course it is the daily readership that we appreciate, and not just the submission of a photo! It was very difficult to choose a winner from all of the excellent entries, but after much deliberation, the winning photo was the above photo of a birthday cupcake submitted by Disney Mike
The runner up was the slashed apple cake submitted by Bonnie, who got bonus points for making an extremely appropriate cake for the occasion. To take a look at her cake, and at a handful of the other entries, just click past the jump. You'll have to view the whole photo pool to see all 47 submitted photos, though!
The 2nd place photo was taken by Bonnie of Daydream Delicious:And a few more photos for your viewing pleasure:

You have entries made specifically for THIS contest, with the requested candle, and the top entry is something NOT for this contest, has no candle, but happens to be a good photo? As beautiful and tasty as it looks, save those for food porn! I declare Shenanigans, Officer Barbrady!
