North Jersey has won two of our seven N.J.'s best showdowns - best sub/hoagie shop and best burger. How will it do in our N.J.'s best bakery competition?

There are 300-plus bakeries on the ballots, broken into four regions - will a North Jersey bakery come out on top?

You can vote starting right now for your favorite bakery.

You can vote once in each category per day. Deadline for voting is 11:59 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 19.

The top five vote-getters in each category, plus my 26 picks, will comprise our 50 semifinalists, which I will visit starting Wednesday, Nov. 22.

Don't forget to vote in our other categoriesz:
