Fab Freebie: Save Room For Cake

***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.

    CAKE ME! My chocolate chip cookie stuffed chocolate cupcakes with whipped frosting and toffee sprinkles. I just drooled a little bit thinking about them. Might have to whip up a batch tonight!

    My favorite baked good of all time was my grandmother’s 7 layer chocolate cake. The layers were oh so thin (it always ended up being about 15 layers instead of 7 – hehe), and the chocolate icing was thin and crispy and to die for. I remember eating that chocolatey goodness until I got sick. :)

    I don’t eat animal products so there are a lot of things I’m unable to eat, but recently made some matcha cupcakes with almond frosting and they were incredible!

    CAKE ME!— I can’t say that there are ANY baked goods that I don’t thoroughly enjoy, but pies are my favorite thing to bake. Something about a warm peach pie just screams summer to me :)

    I am a sucker for chocolate chip cookies (the more chips the better) and ice cream. Can never say “no” to ice cream …

    My favorite dessert (more like a breakfast dessert!) is my Grandma’s Christmas Bread! Homemade bread with candied fruit baked inside with a delicious frosting! It’s AMAZING!

    Apple Dumplings. They always remind me of home. Although, I often eat them for breakfast so I’m not sure I can honestly call them a dessert.

    CAKE ME!! I have an awesome recipe for chocolate chip cookies that are just the perfect chewiness. They are perfect. I could eat them until I throw up (I did that once when I was pregnant, in fact.) My brothers always request them for their birthday. Now I am drooling over here….they are, hands down, my favorite thing in the world to eat!
