Podcast: How charitable giving can raise your bakery’s profile

“On The Rise” is a five episode flashcast. It’s five short podcasts, lasting five minutes each, that explore what the Jake The Baker judges look for in a winning entry.

In this third episode of “On The Rise,” Elaine O’Doherty and Naomi Szeben, talk about what it was about Stacey Bester’s entry that touched them, when reading The Sweet Bakery‘s submission.
