Folks from all over the country participated and hundreds of recipes were received. From the nearly 800 recipes submitted, six lucky recipes were chosen as finalists and I had the daunting task of judging the recipes for the grand prize - $2,500, free Sara Lee Sweet Goods products for a year and having their winning recipe featured on the Sara Lee Sweet Goods website. Two Runner-Up Winners were also chosen and were awarded free Sara Lee Sweet Goods products for a year (12 free coupons) and will have their recipe featured on the Sara Lee Sweet Goods website as well.

After judging the contest, I had the pleasure of taking a tour of Sara Lee's new Research & Development building which was recently opened. It's an amazing facility full of various labs to test, research and develop current and new Sara Lee products. I left having such a greater appreciation for the folks at Sara Lee knowing how much time and effort go into all their products behind the scenes - well before their products are placed on grocery shelves and provided to commercial food vendors.
