Speirs’ recipe was selected by a panel of New England celebrity chefs due to the combination of creativity and taste appeal. “Top New England chefs have trusted Hood Cream in their recipes for decades, and we enjoyed seeing home cooks’ creative recipe ideas during the Hood Chef Creations Recipe Contest,” said Sarah Barow, spokesperson for Hood. “Speirs’ Caramel Croissant Bread Pudding demonstrates the high quality and versatility of Hood Cream in a delicious way. Entrants submitted their recipes from Aug. 1 through Sept. 4, 2013, at Hood.com. From there, Hood narrowed down the entries to 30 semifinalists. These recipes were voted on by the public from Sept. 16 to Oct. 1, to determine the six finalists; each representing a New England state. The finalist’s recipes were then judged on creativity and taste appeal by local celebrity chefs Jeff Landry of The Farmer’s Table in Portland, Maine; Ben Lloyd of Tazza in Providence, R.I.; and Chris Coombs of Boston Chops, dbar and Deuxave in Boston, Mass. For the winning recipe,
Speirs attributes her creativity to her flair for cooking. Wanting to put a new spin on the classing bread pudding, she paired her passion for creamy caramel with her favorite flaky pastry, croissants. By using quality Hood Cream products, Speirs elevated her recipe to create a new favorite that she hopes families across New England will enjoy. The contest was part of a larger campaign that ran in conjunction with the Hood Cream Chef Inspirations Food Truck tour. The tour, which visited select New England locations during the month of August, demonstrated how Hood Cream is trusted by professional and home chefs alike. The three celebrity chefs made one-of-

By Susan Richardson Contributing Writer NORTH BERWICK – Growing up with their younger brother named Josh, who has Down Syndrome, has given Caleb, Jared, and Abby Lewis a shared perspective on what it means to have special needs. “Down Syndrome’s not a bad thing,” said Abby, 12, seated in the family’s North Berwick living room next to 10-year-old Josh as he cuddled one of the family’s two recently adopted kittens.
