Frequently Asked Questions
How do you choose a winner?
Winners are selected at random using a name picker generator from among all eligible entries received.
When will we know who won?
Winner will be notified and must reply with an Amazon account email address. If there’s no response within 2 business days, a new winner will be chosen. We personally contact each winner to confirm their win, so it sometimes takes a few days if we don’t receive a response.
Do we need to submit professional photos?
No! This isn’t a beauty contest. A photo snapped on your phone is perfectly fine to submit. Take a photo of your recipe with whatever technology is available to you.
What are the prize requirements?
The prize is available to any residents of the 50 United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom who can shop with Amazon. We will buy your gift card from your country’s Amazon website at the current market value equivalent to U.S. dollars
