As part of this innovative partnership, DFC will work with an influential chef and former participant to showcase the high standards behind 100% real Canadian dairy.
The Great Canadian Baking Show has quickly become one of Canada's most popular television series. Each week, talented bakers from across the country tackle culinary-themed challenges as they compete to win the coveted title. Read more about this season's bakers here.
"More and more Canadians are preparing their meals at home these days, and dairy farmers want to help millions of amateur bakers discover the benefits of cooking with dairy," said Pierre Lampron, President of Dairy Farmers of Canada. "We want consumers to know that Canadian dairy products make such great ingredients because our milk is produced under some of the most stringent standards in the world. Canadians have a great deal of trust in our dairy farmers, the Blue Cow logo, and we are proud to live up to their high expectations."
A 30-second vignette featuring Mahathi Mundluru, the season 4 runner-up, and culinary and fitness superstar, Wallace Wong ('the Six Pack Chef'), will air across CBC and as a countdown clock before shows air. As part of the sponsorship, DFC is presenting CBC's "Bake it with Canadian Dairy" contest and both partners will also share recipes featuring Canadian dairy corresponding to each week's theme.
