Celebrate Mother’s Day with a Cookies & Cream Cake

Happy Mother’s Day to all moms! In celebration of this special occasion, Red Ribbon is once again sponsoring a blog writing contest entitled “Make Your Day Brighter with Red Ribbon’s Cookies & Cream Cake“. Simply tell your story on how does the Cookies & Cream with Oreo cake make your day, or your family’s day, brighter.

UPDATE: Extended Cookies and Cream Contest

The minimum 1 photo requirement should be an original photo. It could be taken by anybody – family or stranger – as long as it is owned by the writer; to avoid any copyright issues.
