Dayton woman is finalist in $1 million Pillsbury Bake-Off
DAYTON — Dayton resident Suzanne Beck has been selected as one of 100 finalists from around the country in the Pillsbury Bake-Off contest that carries a $1 million first prize.
Beck’s recipe for Sausage and Zucchini Breakfast Pizza was chosen to compete for the top prize.
Contest entrants were asked to submit an original recipe that used at least two Pillsbury-afiliated products. The recipes will be judged by a panel of food experts on taste, appearance, creativity and consumer appeal, Pillsbury officials said.
Beck, 34, said she has been following the bake-off contest for several years, and learned about the entry procedure for the 45th annual baking contest via an email she received from Kroger.
“I love cooking and experimenting in the kitchen, and I just had to throw my hat — and my Sausage and Zucchini Breakfast Pizza recipe — in the ring,” Beck said.
She said she was “shocked and excited” when she was notified that she is a finalist. For more information, go to www.pillsbury.com.
