Simplee Stated Gifts is proud to host the inaugural Berry Best Bake-Off on Saturday, August 29th, 2026, at its downtown Plymouth location, 100 W. Garro Street. The event will celebrate homemade blueberry desserts, treasured family recipes, and the stories behind them.
Registration is free and limited to the first 25 Founding Berry Best Bakers. Community judges will conduct blind judging, with the Champion receiving an engraved keepsake handcrafted by Simplee Stated Gifts, a gift certificate, a certificate, and a commemorative photo.
The Berry Best Bake-Off was inspired by the shop's work helping customers preserve handwritten family recipes through laser engraving and hearing the stories shared about them. The goal is to create a lasting community tradition where recipes, memories, and generations come together.
For registration or additional information, contact Sandy at Simplee Stated Gifts at 574-936-5259 or stop by the store at 100 W. Garro Street in downtown Plymouth.
