THE BAKE OFF CONTEST

I HAVE ASKED A COUPLE OF TIMES AND HAVE NOT RECEIVED AN ANSWER THE PUBLISHED RULES OF THE CONTEST SAYS ON OR ABOUT SEPT 1ST FINALISTS WILL BE NOTIFIED.


I REALLY JUST WANT TO KNOW IF THE FINALISTS HAVE ALL BEEN NOTIFIED AND OR SELECTED AND IF NOT HOW AND WHEN ARE THEY BEING NOTIFIED.


 


I LIKE MANY OTHERS SPENT SIGNIFICANT TIME AND MONEY ON MY RECIPES AND HAVE BEEN VERY ANXIOUS TO SEE IF PERHAPS I MIGHT BE IN THE FINAL 100 -- I  LIKE SOME OTHERS HAVE ASKED A COUPLE OF TIMES BUT CAN'T SEEM TO GET AN ANSWER


JUST A BIT FRUSTRATED AT THIS - DID EVERYTHING PER THE RULES - BUT CAN'T SEEM TO GET


THE COURTESY OF AN ANSWER.

Hi. Smile

We apologize for your frustration and the delay in our second response.  
The Bake-Off team has responded:


“We have started notifying potential finalists.  We are doing this by telephone and email.  We will announce the finalists in mid-October.  Until then, anyone could still be a finalist.”
 
We (Erin and I) are excited for that mid-Oct announcement! We look forward to talk about the results in the community when the finalists are posted!
Until then, we thank you for your patience. 
Sincerely, CC

CateC,


We're all sitting on pins and needles! It's the 21st of the month.  Will we find out who the finalists are before the end of October??  Could any of us still have a chance???

Re: THE BAKE OFF CONTEST

Does anyone else wonder how they pick the top 100 recipes?? I spent lots of time and money on coming up with something new and creative, even researched lots of recipes, online and in print to make sure there was nothing like it.


And last contest.....a peanut butter cookie wins?? Come on...


I made it, and it wasn't that good.....

I don't think they publish that, and if I read correctly, you do not know that you are an alternate unless they need you.
