This week Hollywood celebrates the movies! Â When you think about it, entering recipe contests is a bit like the Oscars. Â We create something special, people come together to judge and vote, and someone walks away with a prize!
In honor of the big night, I wanted to offer CCC readers a fun blog giveaway this week. Â It includes everything you need for movie theatre-style snacks while watching your favorite movies!
Enter to win this fabulous Oscar Party prize package:
“Oscar” Statuette
4 Champagne flutes
4 Movie Theatre popcorn boxes
Box of Merci Chocolate – Merci is the finest assortment of rich European chocolates.  They are individually wrapped and come in a variety flavors like Cream Truffle, Hazelnut-Almond, Praline-Creme, and Dark Cream.  Have you ever thought about who you would thank if you won an Oscar (or the Pillsbury Bake-Off!)?  Follow @mercichocolates on Twitter and tweet about your ‘Thank You’ by using the hashtag #MerciAwards
Thanks to Merci Chocolate for providing this giveaway! Â I added in the Oscar-like statue for fun… Â You can inscribe the label with “Best Cook” if you want!
This week, I wanted to try something a little different with the giveaway and use “Rafflecopter.” Â It is an easy way to enter and gives you more chances to win. Â Good luck everyone!
