Danvers Bakery Launches Contest to Reward Best Customers

, the Danvers-based gourmet bakery, is launching their first ever “Cake Ambassador” contest to ring in the New Year.

The bakery is asking their best customers to send in a photo that depicts them with a cake from Cakes for Occasions and a written explanation of why they deserve to be the 2012 Cake Ambassador. Owner Kelly Delaney believes this campaign is a great way to reward and have fun with the bakery’s longtime patrons.

“I have always been grateful for the customers who are so loyal to our brand,” explained Delaney. “I think this contest is a great way to engage those people and give a little back. They are what drives us; we want to maintain the highest standards and keep them excited about our products.”

Entries must be submitted to submissions@cakes4occasions.com and will be accepted through January 14, 2012. Three finalists, chosen by the bakery, will then be posted on the Cakes for Occasions Facebook page where fans can “like” their favorite during the voting period of January 16-21. A winner, chosen by Delaney, will be announced on January 23.

The 2012 Cake Ambassador will receive a complimentary promotional product for each month of 2012, a 15 percent discount on up to 10 cakes (valued over $125) during the year, and a personal baking tour and workshop with Delaney. The winner will also be encouraged to interact with the bakery’s fans and followers on social media sites.
