Illinois Valley Community College is hosting its 19th Annual Edible Car Contest on February 26, 2025. Teams from middle schools, high schools, and the college will compete using science, engineering, and math skills to create edible cars. Categories include the fastest, sweetest, and most creative designs. The event is part of National Engineering Week.
“Choosing sturdy, operable ingredients to fashion a moving object uses science, engineering, and math skills,” Data said. “Even chemistry comes in handy to keep an ice cream carriage from melting before the race. Outside-the-box thinking is critical, too.”
IVCC’s MIMIC project and the Workforce Development Division sponsor the contest in recognition of National Engineering Week. For more information, visit https://www.ivcc.edu/ediblecarcontest.
