I entered the contest too, but haven't received too many votes because I haven't hassled my friends enough ... although they sure didn't mind tasting my creation. My entry is the Crepe Cake with Chocolate Glaze and Biscoff Cookie Filling . I finished my entry two minutes before the contest entry deadline, so that is why my picture is mediocre.

Hey...I just submitted a vote for you! It is a shame that the first part of this contest is more of a "who has the most facebook friends" contest than anything else.

I wish they had done something where the only people who got to vote were the 75K Delta employees, that way the initial voting would be non-biased.

That's great! Well done! Hopefully that free trip includes mileage accrual ...nothing like 5k free MQMs to start the year off with!

Said like a true FlyerTalk member! If I'm REALLY lucky it will be booked at as a Y fare so I'll get the instant upgrade to first (which I'll give to Mom!)

On the Delta facebook page they have a post about the finalist for the Biscoff bake-off...if you look way down in the comments it appears that the photo for the #1 finalist was taken from someone else's blog!

So, did they eliminate it all together? I was going to make it for Thanksgiving but the recipe has disappeared and another recipe is now #1... Hmm...

The finals were this past weekend in Napa Valley.

I didn't win but my mother and I had a great time. Delta had arranged for the finalist to attends several events at the Flavor Napa Valley weekend so we got to meet some big name chefs and to a lot of the Culinary Institute of America at Greystone.

Andrea Robinson was one of the judges so it was cool to meet her!

Thanks again for everyone for the votes and support!
