All food products must either be raw ingredients, created from scratch by the entrant using raw ingredients or from the Betty Crocker range. Competing products of the Promoter must not be used.

Multiple entries permitted, subject to the following: (a) each entry/Photograph must be substantially unique; (b) each entry must be submitted separately and in accordance with entry requirements; and (c) a limit of one (1) prize per person applies.

Determination of Winners

This is a game of skill and chance plays no part in determining the winners. Entries will be divided into the following four (4) groups based on the Participating Dessert featured in the entrant’s Photograph: 1) Hot Salted Caramel Dessert Brownie and Salted Caramel Parfait; 2) Tiramisu Cake Mix; 3) Chocolate Mud Cake; or 4) Chocolate Mouse Cake Mix and Molten Lava Cake (each a “Dessert Group”).

Each entry will be individually judged by a panel of judged selected by the Promoter against all other entries received in that Dessert Group based on the originality and creative merit of the Photograph submitted, as well as how delicious and ‘irresistible’ the dessert appears. The judges may select additional reserve entries in each Dessert Group, which they determine to be the next best, and record them in order of merit, in case of an invalid entry or ineligible entrant.

The winners will be notified in writing by email.
