We had a grand total of 10 entries in for this year's Oscar Nomnomnom Challenge - at least 200% more than the total number of people who read this blog.

 

As always, points are awarded for correct predictions in all categories, including the short films. After waking from a Haribo-induced coma this afternoon, covered in scribbled declarations of love to Jennifer Lawrence, the points have been counted (view the full predictions here). The final scores are as follows....

So, in accordance with hallowed Oscar Nomnomnom rules, King of Cakes Mr. Cunningham now has his choice of 4 cupcakes from the selection below, which shall then be delivered to his door by our patented Cupcake Ninja delivery service.

 

Oscar Cupcakes - 2013

 

Runners-up Céline and Chris, both with 16 correct predictions, can (if they wish) pick 3 cupcakes each from the remaining stash, while joint-third place Andrew can then claim the remaining 2 cupcakes.

 

Again, full disclosure: as I admitted yesterday, I had some help with the cupcakes this year from my seven year old nephew. His contribution to the edible booty will be awarded to Alex as a commiseration prize. It's edible - I just have no idea what it's supposed to be.

 

Alex, read on to see what you've won...
