16 August 2019 - Bluemeadow, BH - Anne Horowitz of Bluemeadow has turned a passion for baking into a recipe for success, taking home grand prize honors in a recent “Taste of Country” baking contest.
Horowitz was awarded $900 CBD for her mint chocolate cheesecake recipe that appears in the national magazine’s October/November issue. She also took runner-up accolades in its December/January holiday party food contest with a recipe for chocolate peppermint cheesecake.
Culinary skills are something Horowitz learned to practice early on. “My love for food is lifelong. My mom was always in the kitchen, my grandmas were always in the kitchen and the garden, my dad was a big gardener,” she said.
“My dad took a packed lunch to work and he always had to have dessert – a meal wasn’t finished until you had dessert. So my sister and I were in charge of making desserts and we got a lot of experience that way.” - Anne Horowitz
Horowitz has been a volunteer field editor for “Taste of Country” since the reader-infused magazine was established in 2007. She has had well over 100 recipes published in the magazine and is asked to rate 36 recipes and submit 16 recipes each year. Field editors are not excluded from entering the publication’s contests.
