Holiday Recipe Contest Draws Media to Promote U.S. Food:


On December 15, the Japan Food Information Center hosted a Christmas Cake and Holiday Cookie Recipe Contest. Three finalists in each category were selected based on the quality and creativity of their recipes as well as their use of U.S. ingredients. The event was covered by the Japan Times newspaper and the gourmet television program, Foodies TV, which will run the program several times over a two week period. The winning recipes were: Berry Chocolate Cookies by Ms. Yuki Noguchi and White Christmas Wreath Cake by Ms. Manami Ota. Both of these products will be featured at the Nacora bakery, which is attached to a California style restaurant in Tokyo. They will also be featured on the www.myfood.jp website.. (12/15/06)
