Vote now -- and often -- for your choice of the best-looking decorated cake in the Taste contest. There are more than 400 cakes waiting for you to check out (and some of them are truly breathtaking).

You will need to register for the contest in order to vote (this is a different registration than the one for the Star Tribune). You can do so here:

You can cast a vote once an hour. (That's a lot of votes in the course of the day!) Viewers will determine the top 10 cakes. The Taste staff will choose the winner from those. Prize is a $200 gift certificate.

It's time to vote!
