Whether you're famous for your creative spin on cookie decorating - or if you just like putting frosting and sprinkles on things - here's a contest for you: Becker's Bakery in downtown Manhattan Beach is hosting a Halloween cookie decorating contest.
The deal is, you buy one of their cookie decorating kits, give the cookies your most creative twist, email them your photos, and you could win a prize (and local fame).
The cookies will be judged on creativity, artistic expression, and decorating skills (using only what's in the kit). The contest is limited to one submission per family.
The decorating kit ($28) comes with five ghost shaped cookies, five round "pumpkin" cookies, six tubes of icing and Halloween sprinkles. You can order the kit online or pick it up at the store.
This is the first year of the contest, bakery owner Kit Becker told MB News, and the prizes will include gift cards and some other fun bonuses.
P.S. Need some inspiration? Beckers has plenty of fun Halloween cookies already in the store, so you should definitely check them out for "research" purposes.

A Halloween cookie rolls into a bar. The bartender looks at him and says, "Sorry, we don't serve food."
Last one (don't hate us for this): There is a man who is dying in his bed in his home. He smells something amazing. It’s the smell of his favorite chocolate chip cookies. And with his last strength, he gets out of bed, and he goes to the kitchen, where his wife of 50 years is cooking these beautiful chocolate chip cookies. They are fresh out of the oven, sitting on a plate. And with his last human strength, he reaches over to take one of the cookies, and when his wife sees him, she rushes over, slaps his hand, and says, “No, those are for the funeral.”
