Bundt Recipe Contest Revives an American Tradition

Remember when Bundt cakes were the culinary rage? Every mom in America had to have a Bundt pan and multiple cake recipes. Well, its time to pull out your favorite Bundt pan and recipe. It’s contest time!

According to Nordic Ware, the makers of the famous pan, they are hosting their second-annual national recipe contest inviting bakers to submit their most creative, best-tasting Bundt creations. This year, Nordic Ware’s theme calls for recipes that celebrate 10 popular American holidays. Each recipe entered into the contest will be judged on originality, taste, texture, visual appearance, use of ingredients and an essay describing how the entry represents in its own special way, one of America’s popular holidays. Because there is a Bundt pan for every season, bakers will be encouraged to make good use of one of the many seasonal Bundt designs from Nordic Ware. Bakers will be required to capture the essence of the Bundt cake meaning no elaborate use of frostings. The contest runs from April 1, 2007 to September 1, 2007. Read the rest of this entry »
