  1. I live so close to parsippany nj so thats pretty cool. I love baking i love using cake mixes Ive used te flavor creations icing and have had lots of compliments on it. I made a dark chocolate cupcake topped with the mint mix in. My father in law is a huge york peppermint patty fan so he was in heaven. Id love to meet you Id love to bake with you and id love to win something im not very lucky

  2. I would love to go on this trip! It sounds fun and educational. There are so many Frosting Creations to pick from, but I would most like to experiment with the peaches and creme and the mocha.

  3. Of course I’d like to meet you! and, the thought of experiencing a professional kitchen–that has been responsible for many of my fond baking memories–would be a dream come true!
    We’ve already bought the Orange Creme and Caramel Frosting Creations. The lady at Safeway told me the Orange Creme was the best flavor (maybe she should get a commission 😉
    My favorite thing to make using Duncan Hines Cake Mix is a bar cookie. I use the cake mix (Butter Golden or Yellow) for the base. There is caramel, chocolate chips, and toffee bits (Heath or Skor) in the cookies and they are delicious! I also like the Muffin mixes because my kids like to eat them.
    Thanks for this fabulous opportunity!

  4. It would be so interesting to see all the things that go on behind the scenes before we see the products on our grocery shelves – so fun! I am so excited to try the Strawberry Shortcake mix-in icing flavor – I have coupon for a free mix in so it’s on my grocery list. Duncan Hines has the most innovative products on the market and the most flavorful, most moist box cake mixes.

  5. I love baking, and i think it would be awesome to see the Duncan Hines test kitchens! The caramel and key lime flavors sounds really good! And i love duncan hines brownies.

  6. I take every opportunity I get to learn something new and I’d be thrilled to go to the Duncan Hines Test Kitchen. It would be so fun to meet you and spend time sharing food and blogging stories. I’d like to try the Strawberry Shortcake Frosting and would use it in a angel food cake roulade.

  7. Oh my! I would love to go. I love Duncan Hines (only kind I buy) and I love to use cake mix in recipes. I would love to go to learn how to use them more in different recipes. How fun!!

  8. Awesome giveaway! I am from NJ and never knew the Duncan Hines Test Kitchen was there! I would love to go because I am a baker and love to bake and learn new things! I am loving the new frosting creations, I have used caramel and strawberry shortcake so far!
