Have a Talent for Baking? We Want YOU! 

If you’ve got a prized cookie recipe and you want to show it off and support a great cause, email kristen@lumdimsum.com with your cookie recipe and a photo to enter our 2017 Cookie Monster Charity Bake-Off. Deadline for submissions is Friday, Mar. 2nd! 

The concept is simple. The Hutong and LumDimSum.com will be co-hosting a Charity Bake Off to indulge Beijing's most indulgent cookie monsters by showcasing some of Beijing's Best Bakers and supporting a local community charity, all at the same time!

We will be carefully selecting each of our cookie contestants to ensure that all of our cookie monsters get to munch their way through a diverse range of cookies. As space is limited, The Hutong will pick only the top 15 cookie recipes to compete in our Cookie Monster Bake-Off. 

If selected, each cookie contestant must provide enough small cookie bite samples to go around (for about 80 people) and you will also be allowed to sell their own cookies (each bag of 5 cookies for RMB 20, of which RMB 5 will be donated to our select charity). 

For all those cookie monsters who just want to come check out who made our top 15 cookie list and chow through 15 different fantastic cookies, the entrance price is RMB 150 (RMB 100 for members) which includes sample bites of all 20 cookies + 1 cup of warm milk courtesy of The Hutong. 

The Hutong will also be serving up some hot drinks: Warm milk (cause that's what the Cookie Monster likes to dunk his cookies into), Hot Chocolate and Hot Toddy's.

100% of raffle tickets and a portion of entrance ticket + Cookie sales will all be donated to a local charity.
