About this giveaway
With Thanksgiving just days away, this giveaway was our little warm-up for all the delicious food and desserts ahead. The mother-and-daughter team behind Philadelphia’s Brown Betty Dessert Boutique recently released The Brown Betty Cookbook, a collection that celebrates classic and inventive desserts. To celebrate their launch, they generously provided a copy of the cookbook plus a $100 credit for Terrain—perfect for anyone who loves beautiful kitchenware as much as they love baking. If you enjoy sumptuous desserts and stylish kitchen items, this prize pairing was made for you.

International entry policy explained
We’ve received questions about why some giveaways aren’t open to international readers. We want everyone to participate when possible, and we always ask vendors if they can ship internationally. Many companies are happy to ship worldwide, but some are limited by logistics, customs, or legal restrictions that prevent them from shipping outside certain countries. Because those policies are set by the companies themselves, they determine whether a giveaway can include international entries. If we required every giveaway to be international, we would have to turn down many generous sponsors and giveaways—making it harder to offer regular contests. We do our best to include as many readers as possible and appreciate your understanding.
About the cookbook and prize
The Brown Betty Cookbook highlights the desserts and baking sensibility of a beloved boutique bakery. The recipes and photos capture a mix of nostalgic comfort and contemporary flair, ideal for holiday baking or everyday indulgence. Pairing the cookbook with a store credit for Terrain made this package appealing to food lovers who also enjoy well-crafted kitchen tools and stylish tabletop items.
