three dozen in the bag + the third giveaway (closed)



There are thirty six donut pan projects completed at this time, so I'm over a third of the way to finishing our 101 Donut Pan Ideas! This last dozen fit into the fall and holiday season nicely, but there are so many more holiday ideas left to do. Maybe I'll have to do a "Christmas in July" week. In the meantime, I'm still obsessed inspired by these torus-shaped treats. They are so much fun, and it's really a family affair now. I can't stop!

Links to the third dozen donut pan ideas:

Speaking of winning it, it's time for yet another donut pan giveaway, direct from Wilton, the company who makes the pans I use. They will mail the winner two brand new donut pans, and as a bonus, I will throw in one of my egg piñatas. I wanted to make a donut care package for the winner like I did for the last giveaway, but I'm plum out of donuts (and time) this month, so I hope a tiny piñata will be a sufficient replacement!

If you'd like to enter the giveaway, just leave a comment below. I'd love to hear which donut was your favorite out of this last dozen, but that is not required to be entered in the contest. I will announce the winner next Friday, January 11th. 

By the way, my favorite was the Mexican hot chocolate, but I really love them all!

Here's the fine print from Wilton:
Contest is open only to legal residents of the 50 United States of America, Washington, D.C.(excluding US territories and possessions) or Canada (excluding Quebec), who are eighteen (18) years of age or older. Void where prohibited by law.

I am going to ramp up my efforts (in February, too much happening in January!) to get the next two dozen projects completed much faster than the last three. I've met with a friend who has taken a project from blog to book before, and it sounds like when I have about 60 ideas completed is when I might catch a publisher's attention. So wish me luck on that! 

And thank you as always for supporting this experiment, for lack of a better word. It's done WITH LOVE and fascination, and sure has made me braver in the kitchen!

Just for fun, below are the first two dozen. Aren't they beautiful, or is it just me? Have a great weekend! xoxo

  8. Wow, 3 dozen already!?! Way to go! So difficult to choose one favorite, but I think I'd have to say the olive cocktail rings - I love how each ring is made of six different segments, and also they sound quite yummy. Congrats on the progress w. the project thus far!!! You'll reach 60 in no time. xo

  13. Hi Tiffanie! I want to enter. Your projects look so awesome altogether! Still think this would make a great book...

  14. Oh this is hard to choose! Mexican Hot Chocolate is probably a winner for me though, seeing as I have a cup of Abuelita almost every night before bed. I also adore the Eggs Two Ways - I'm always looking for healthier options for eating eggs other than frying them in butter and covering them with cheese (yum).
