***This giveaway is now closed. See who won below!***
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Our lucky winner this week is… N Shirley (whose favorite dessert “to both make and eat is Virginia Apple Pudding – even makes the whole house smell good!”) Sounds delicious. Congrats!
We’ve had a few questions about why all contests aren’t open to international readers, so here’s that info for you. We actually ask every single vendor who approaches us to do a giveaway if they’ll ship internationally and we remind them that the more folks are included, the more exciting it is for everyone. We LOVE you all and always want to open our giveaways to as many people as possible! It unfortunately comes down to each company’s policy (some folks are set up to deal with customs/shipping internationally while some companies are not legally able to vend things beyond the US – even if it’s just a book or a gift card). Sadly, we can’t change companies policies, and if we held out for international prizes and rejected everything else, we could no longer host weekly giveaways – which we’ve done for years. Hope that makes sense! We’ll continue to do our best to include as many of you guys as we can (we’re so glad this cookbook is open to Canadians too!).
With Thanksgiving just days away, think of this week’s giveaway as a warm up to all of the delicious food you’ll be stuffing your face with come Thursday. The mother-daughter team behind Philly’s Brown Betty Dessert Boutique is celebrating their new cookbook, The Brown Betty Cookbook, by giving away a copy along with $100 towards Terrain, whose wares appears on the cookbook’s pages. So if you’re like us and drool equally over amazing desserts and stylish kitchenware, you’re in luck. Seriously. I think I got a sugar high just by looking at some of the pictures.
- PRIZE: The Brown Betty Cookbook and $100 towards Terrain
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “CAKE ME!” and tell us…
- BONUS QUESTION: … what’s your all time favorite baked dessert? Are you a sucker for a chocolate layer cake? Or could you eat warm chocolate chip cookies ’til your stomach bursts? Maybe you’re dying to stuff a cupcake in your face right about now?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, November 21st at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: This cookbook giveaway is open to The United States & Canada (anyone in the US or Canada is eligible to win the cookbook, although the gift card is only valid in the states).
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

CAKE ME! Cakes are great, coconut is probably my favorite, but I’m totally a pie person. Pear, banana cream, strawberry rhubarb, apple, even a basic chess, love them. But no pumpkin, thankyouverymuch.

I am a baking queen and my all time favorite thing to make (and consequently ferociously devour) are chocolate cupcakes with a thick ganache frosting. Mmmmmm.
Alison says
CAKE ME!
My favorite dessert would have to be pie. Coconut cream, lemon meringue, pumpkin, pecan, German chocolate and the list goes on and on. It is so very difficult to decide which would be the top pick, they are all divine!

CAKE ME! Tough choice between Davis Baking Company Angel Food Squares and their Chocolate Chocolate Layer Cake. Davis Baking Company no longer exists, but a very good substitute Angel Food Squares can be found in Creedmoor, NC at Nona’s Bakery 209 North Main Street, Creedmoor, NC. I love cake so much. Angel Food Squares….siiiiigh

Samantha says
CAKE ME! My grandmother, whom we affectionately called Grandma Goose, used to bake and send us her molasses drop cookies every holiday season. Now that she’s passed on, that recipe is even more cherished and easily the family favorite. We always have to make more before the holidays are over!
Lisa says

Kristen | Popcorn on the Stove says
CAKE ME!
I love chocolate cake with chocolate icing – so classic and delicious!

Can I just eat the cookie dough batter? Or brownie batter–that would be fine…cooked works too, just in a ooey-gooey stage, no overbaking!
Lindsey says
CAKE ME!
anything with coconut or caramel
Julie says
CAKE ME!
My all time favourite baked dessert is Nigella Lawson’s Raspberry Chocolate Pavlova. Yum!

CAKE ME!
Peanut butter and chocolate mousse pie with oatmeal crust (this restaurant near college served it and i have since come up with my own recipe)
Mesa says
CAKE ME!
My favorite desert is chocolate chip cookie bars, with half the chocolate chips sub’d for butterscotch chips. Bars are so much more moist than a cookie itself and the butterscotch chips just add a little something else.
Amelia says
CAKE ME!
I love cheesecake! A baked, takes 2 days to make, real cream cheese cheesecake. None of that jello ‘no-bake’ junk!
Melody Strayer says
CAKE ME! We have a family recipe for chocolate cake that is to DIE FOR. Yum!!!

Cake Me!!!! my absolute favorite is white cake with berry chocolate mousse filling with a whip cream frosting. However the vanilla icecream I made this morning was delightful
Allie says
Cake me!! I could die for fudge brownie with vanilla bean ice cream….yuuummmm….
TJ says
Sorry, can I just ask if that means that when prizes are only for US I am completely ineligible or I could still enter, but would have to have my prize shipped to my friends in the US and then have them ship to me?
If I can do the later CAKE ME!!! My favourite is lemon and poppyseed with cream cheese icing!
YoungHouseLove says
It just means that the company will ship within those bounds, so if you have a friend or family member in the US, the prize can be shipped to them and they can hopefully forward it on. Hope that helps!

Stacey T says
CAKE ME!
