The Daring Bakers and The Daring Cooks: A History

In November 2006, Lisa of La Mia Cucina and Ivonne of Cream Puffs in Venice decided to challenge themselves to bake pretzels for the very first time using the same recipe. They each went ahead and posted about it on November 18, 2006.

Our new and improved member blogroll is being recreated with loving care as you read this.

In the interim Admin Scott has created a temporary listing of current Daring Bakers AND a temporary listing of Daring Cooks so you can view each others challenge posts.

Make sure your blog information has been entered and is accurate in your user profile so we can display and link to it properly.
