The organisation committee comprised two Peterhead Academy classes (of more than 40 pupils) plus two members of staff – Greig Summers and Nadine Cowan – in collaboration with VisitAberdeenshire.
It took roughly seven months to plan.
Longside Honey, The Green Cocoa Team, Peter’s Ices, Cakes By Alli-Baba and Nichola’s Bakehouse were among the businesses providing sweet treats for visitors.
