OVERVIEW

For the first time ever in its 47-year history of the competition, fans were able to vote for the winner of the Pillsbury Bakeoff Contest. General Mills turned to Telescope to create an online voting application which included the ability to view video clips of each of the recipe demos before voting using Facebook login.  The winner of the contest was announced on national television during a broadcast of the ABC cooking show “The Chew”.

HOW IT WORKED
