Food Network’s Claire Robinson is excited to announce that starting Monday, August 27, amateur chefs and kitchen mavens can download a FREE digital cookbook featuring five new original recipes from the five ingredient chef herself!
Claire recently teamed up with Coffee-mate Natural Bliss to host a national Facebook contest and Nashville’s April McKinney and her Peachy Bliss Bread Pudding recipe (below) won! The contest, which ran from May 23 – June 25, asked participants to create an original recipe and film a cooking demonstration for Facebook. Contestants baked and battled for the chance to win an all-expense paid trip to New York City to meet and cook with Claire, and appear on a Better TV segment. After dozens of entries, only 10 lucky fans were selected to have their winning recipe published in a limited edition cookbook, alongside Claire and April’s recipes. To download the full cookbook, log on to the Coffee-mate Natural Bliss Facebook page starting August 27: www.facebook.com/CoffeemateNaturalBliss.
I would be happy to provide you with additional details from this exciting contest and any high-res images you may need so you can share this exciting news with your readers. You can also visit http://naturalbliss.coffee-mate.com for more information on all-natural, Coffee-mate Natural Bliss.
