Once again this year, Flancer’s is looking for the best dessert in the Valley.
Flancer’s will accept dessert entries, with a typed copy of original recipe, at both locations, through Oct. 12. Finalists will be notified on Oct. 13 for the Dessert Showdown.
Flancer’s third annual Dessert Showdown will be held at the Mesa location on Sunday, Oct. 16 at 10:30 a.m. Finalists will be judged on several criteria, including presentation, ease of recipe and ingredients, overall taste, and originality. This event is open for the public to come enjoy the judging and samples of the desserts.
The winning dessert will be featured on the Flancer’s menu for an entire year, with a portion of the proceeds benefiting the winner’s favorite charity. The winner also receives a $100 Flancer’s gift certificate.
Jeff Flancer has donated thousands of dollars to the previous winners’ favorite charities through the sales of Penny’s Tin Roof (2009 winner) benefiting a 3-year-old child from Mesa who had a heart transplant, and Gabriel’s Rockin’ Chocolate Pie (2010 winner) benefiting Gabriel’s Angels.
