This is one of six books the author edited of recipes that won blue ribbons at state/county fairs - and each is absolutely awesome. Every recipe is clearly written, shows the name and location of the contributor and the fair(s) at which it won a blue ribbon, and is preceded by a brief description of why it is so special, where it originated (e.g., long time family favorite), etc. Everything I've tried has been sensational, and there are many more that I can't wait to try. Don't miss this one!
Blue Ribbon Pies
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
A wonderful book. Mine was used to death, broke in half and lost half moving. Looking for replacement. The whole series is great, pies, cookies, cakes, & breads. There have been several blue ribbon books done, but this is by far the best.
Outstanding! The best of the best.

This book is outstanding. Although a number of authors have collected and published winning recipes from county and state fairs, this book (along with the others in the series by Margie Jensen) really stands out. Each recipe is preceded by a very helpful explanation or description -- proving that they're tried and true, and often family heirlooms. Every recipe I've tried has been extraordinary.
