Which, as you might guess from the title, is a copy of the wedding cake we had at OUR wedding. Super yum!

Win a Kitchenaid Mixer

We’re IN LOVE with our 7 quart KitchenAid.

We’ve been fortunate to have this very same mixer in our kitchen for three years now, and it is, without a doubt, the most reliably awesome countertop appliance we own. There’s one thing you can always count on: a KitchenAid will do exactly what its supposed to do. How many things can you actually say that about these days? We’ve used our 7qt KitchenAid through the making of THREE cookbooks, and it has never let us down!

Meringue Frosting (Pg 382) from Make It Paleo 2

Well, you’re here to have a shot at winning one, right? Cool! We always love giving things away that we ALSO love, and can stand behind. This is always our favorite giveaway of the year, because it’s a product we thoroughly believe in. Every spring, we partner with KitchenAid in celebration of their sponsorship of the senior PGA event. This year’s 2015 Senior PGA event is being held at French Lick Resort (in Indiana), which is a Pete Dye designed golf course. As a former landscape architect, that name carries some serious clout (sort of like having a Picasso painting, or living in a building designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, or eating a dish personally cooked by Thomas Keller). You get the point, yeah? It’s a big deal.

So in celebration of KitchenAid and the Senior PGA Tour event at French Lick, we get to give away their biggest and best stand mixer! Seriously!

Let’s take a moment to admire it in action:

(You can find that recipe at the bottom of this post!)

So picture yourself winning one of these! Entering this year’s giveaway is easier than ever before.

      I would make some frosting. Frosting just can’t be done by hand.

      I would love to try the merengue frosting! We are always coming up with some new and exciting cupcake flavored over here and we like to experiment with fillings and frostings. This looks like the perfect consistency. It also looks delicious! And of course dairy free which is the most important to me!!

      I would make THIS! I love strawberry shortcake. I have been cooking and baking in my tiny apparent kitchen forever with an old hand mixer. But, we just bought a house and this would be a perfect way to bless our new kitchen. Thank you for the opportunity to win this amazing mixer!!

      I make frosting by hand, but not meringue. or whipped cream, or whipped coconut cream. I would totally whip up an angel food cake. that just CAN’T happen with my bicep strength alone. Not yet. and i have fierce, carrying kids for 10 years straight and make frosting with a fork, or CHEESECAKE with a fork biceps. 😀

      Every time my mom pulls out her kitchen aid mixer, she tells the story of how she got it when she got married. I love teasing her for always telling the same stories. I’d love to be able to tell my nieces and nephews that I got mine through two of my favorite cookbook authors!

    41. Bronweng
      May 5, 2015

      I’d have to go with….MARSHMALLOWS!!!!!! It’s been too long since I’ve had one, and they are one of my favorite treats. After cutting out a number of foods due to sensitivities, there are not many treats available to me, and I’ve long dreamed about a beautiful, fresh batch of homemade marshmallows. Yum. Thank you so much for the opportunity.

    42. jmerriman
      May 5, 2015
