Early last month, Magnolia Ice Cream announced a blog writing contest here to promote their Holidays Limited Edition flavors.
We express out gratitude for your positive response and to those who helped promote the contest to their friends and networks. We also had to extend the contest from Christmas to the first week of January to give chance to those on vacation or those coming home from the provinces during the holidays. Nonetheless, together with this extension is an upgrade of the prizes. The first prize was increased from P2,000 to P3,000. The second and third prizes were also upgraded.
In total, Magnolia Ice Cream is giving away P6,500 worth of gift certificates (GCs) to our Top 3 placers. And as promised, the winners will be announced today.
It was no easy task for the judges from Magnolia and NomNom Club to score the entries as most of them are outstanding and made us want to get some ice cream as well. It was good that we were in the San Miguel Corp office when we had our first meeting and deliberation of the entries. It was easy to have some servings of Magnolia ice cream around. 🙂
The scores were completed and averaged based on the contest criteria:
Creativity and Writing Style – 50%
Originality, Grammar & Adherence to Theme – 20%
Photo Quality and Relevance – 20%
Overall Impact – 10%
Some entries were very creative but suffered from grammatical errors while some were also affected with the photos they used (remember the mechanics stated early on that it should be yours and does not infringe any copyright).
Fast forward to today and without further adieu, the winners are:
First Place (90%) – “Head Over Heels with Magnolia’s Limited Edition Apple Strudel Ice Cream”
– by Mona of Eyes on Manila (http://mverdida.wordpress.com/)
"Head Over Heels with Magnolia Ice Cream..."
Second Place (85.5%) – “Enjoy While It’s Here”
– by Vivian of Trips & Falls (http://divineviva.blogspot.com/)
Enjoy While It's Here
I Love Magnolia Ice Cream
Third Place (85%) – “My Magnolia Ice Cream Experience: Enjoy while it’s here”
– by Gerald of I Love Magnolia Ice Cream (http://ilovemagnoliaicecream.wordpress.com/)
Third Place (85%) – “Magnolia Ice Cream New Limited Edition Flavors -Enjoy While It’s Here!”

Congratulations to the first placer! You will receive P3,000 worth of MIC gift certificates while the second placer will receive P2,000 MIC GCs. You read it right, there are two who tied at 3rd place so each of them will receive P750 worth of MIC GCs. You will receive an email in the addresses you provided in the comment section within this week.
“But wait, there’s more!” 🙂 To the fourth to ninth placers, you automatically get exclusive invitation to an upcoming Magnolia Ice Cream product party to be held by end of February 2011. Details to be announced by mid-Feb in this blog as well.
