Raleigh Kid's Fest and Breyer's Ice Cream Sundae Contest

You're invited ... to the Breyer's Ice Cream Sundae Contest! It's held at the Kids' Fest in Raleigh. [Details at the end of this post.]



WHAT: As part of the summer search for the best ice cream sundaes, popular Durham-based, Raleigh-local chef, Karen Barker, has teamed up with Breyer's Ice Cream to bring the “Sundae Showcase” to Raleigh for Kids Fest on August 29. Karen has developed a signature Raleigh-inspired ice cream recipe, “Sweet & Spicy Peach Pecan Sundae,” with Breyers® All Natural Peach ice cream, shortbread cookies and cinnamon and spice.

While at the Sundae Showcase event, families can indulge with free scoops* of Breyers® Original All Natural Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough or Homemade Vanilla ice cream, get creative at the build-your-own sundae bar, and enjoy Karen’s sundae demonstrations, games and entertainment.

Ice cream fans can also enter the Sundae Scoop-Off recipe contest at Breyers.com for a chance to win $10,000, a trip for four to Chicago and one year of free Breyers® ice cream. The recipe entries will be judged on taste, creativity, use of Breyers® ice cream and presentation.

WHO: Durham-based chef, Karen Barker of The Magnolia Grill.



The Magnolia Grill chef’s work has been showcased in numerous publications including Food & Wine, Bon Appétit, Fine Cooking and The New York Times. Her desserts display a distinct Southern sensibility – making creative use of regional ingredients with an emphasis on seasonality and local sourcing.

WHERE: Sunday, Aug. 29, 1 – 5 p.m.
Kids Fest
Triangle Town Center, 5959 Triangle Town Blvd., Raleigh, N.C.

Warmly, Carolina Mama

What a fun idea and a great way to wrap up the last of summer fun!

The peppers come in a small can that will last many weeks. I find mine in the mexican food isle of our market. I hadn't heard of them until I made this recipe. I hope you make it soon ~ it's SO good :)

My son is back in NC. He loves being there and has informed me that he is planning to live there once school is finished. I don't have a trip planned for now. He is coming home in the fall for a long weekend and over the holidays. I'll let you know when I head south.

Have a great day ~
