Loving your raisins?

February 2, 2011, CA – For the fourth year running, the California Raisin Marketing
Board is asking working bakers and students across North America to submit
their best raisin recipes to win great prizes and publicity. For Canadians,
this is a great opportunity to show your stuff to our southern neighbours.

The submissions should entail raisin bread and/or breakfast
product with raisins for a shot at winning a five day all-expense paid trip to
sunny California and publicity for the baker and his company in trade and
consumer publications. 

For the recipes, you must create breads that are 50 per cent
raisin to dry flour weight or breakfast products with 25 per cent raisins to
dry flour weight at a minimum in order to qualify. Applications must include
all ingredients in baker’s percentages and a description provided on the
process used in completing your entry. Each person can enter up to three
recipes to increase your chances of winning.

The contest closes for students on May 14 and for
professionals on Aug. 1. Students and professionals will be judged in separate divisions.
