A New Poll and a Contest!
If you look to the left you will see the tagline for Baking Delights. It says, Baking, you cant beat it!
Which may be true, but it is starting to bore me. Lacks charisma, luster, and ooo-lala, you know?
So here is the deal. I need a new tag line. And you want to win a contest. Come on, you know you do.
Look at t his cookbook. How cool is it? Dorie Greenspan bakes her way though the Parisian Pastry Shops. Imagine touring Paris with Dorie at your side. :)
See, I told you you wanted this.
So, here’s what you do.
1. Blog about this contest with a link back to Baking Delights.
2. Leave me a comment with a link to the blog post.
That gets you entered for the cookbook.
3. Come up with a tag line for Baking Delights. Something catchy, and very, very Marye. For the tagline you will get another entry in the contest.
I will choose the five taglines I like best.
On March 14th I will put up a new poll with the five best taglines. The poll will run through the 25th. On the 25th I will draw the name of the winner of the cookbook and….
The person who gets the most votes will win a $10 gift certificate to Amazon.
How cool is that?
Pretty stinkin’ cool of you ask me!

Baking Delights: Where the art of baking is a showplace for(or of) love.
I thought these definitions showed showplace was a good choice of words.
1. an estate, mansion, or the like, usually open to the public, renowned for its beauty, excellent design and workmanship.
2. any house, building, office, etc., that is beautifully furnished and is considered of flawless taste.
I don’t have a blog..:( I just read yours

Hi there - how about something like:

I’ll do a post on how baking fun foods can help take your mind off pain for helpmyhurt.com and I’ll mention your contest at the same time.
Good luck!

Hi Marye,
I am a fellow Daring Baker and I am VERY new to all of this.
Sorry I have no blog it to post to but would love that book. How do you gals do it? I have been thinking about but just not sure I have the time.
I used to own a catering business, Appetizers and Desserts, but I started out just desserts and it’s name was Devilishly Delicious Desserts, then I dropped the Desserts when I added other foods.
I think it Baking Delights, Devilishly Delicious would be great!
Let me know what you think!

A sexy, snappy name is a good link to food because it arouses the senses and bring so much pleasure to everyone. Food and sex have long been acquainted, and even the very conservative agree, food most of the times brings ( I would say arouse, but that might “ruffle” some, laughing) a lot of pleasure. So Marye, go for it ! Let your inner fun, sexy food enthusiastic chef shine!

Ok, I have an official entry. It just came to me… I can’t figure out if you’re giving away a book or a gift certificate though - I don’t want either. SO if I win, I get to pick who had the second best slogan and who gets the bootie prize. Ok. Also, I’m not sure, do we have to have BD in the tag? I’ll do one with and one not…

Jennifer

Well, Julie, “You can’t go wrong voting for Jennifer” that’s another tagline I like :)

Naughty Nibbles by Tintillating Tarts!
Nah really… We have to keep this a *tiny* bit PG… It is kinda syndicated, ya?
But it’s fun to come up the ideas anyhoo :)
I kinda like the Devilishly Delicious one. As far as Jennifer’s idea, you could go on a Pinky and the Brain expansion and be
“Taking over the oven, one muffin at a time.”
This is really fun.
Thanks Marye!

Suzana- thank you!

Don’t have a blog. Don’t even know what a blog is, but have an idea for a title.
How about “Delightful, Delicious, Delicacies”
short, simple, to the point.

I think this helps reinforce making your stuff at home versus buying all the things with packaging at the store.
