Five lucky finalists will be flown to New York City to battle it out in the kitchen by bringing their recipes to life.  Harry Slatkin, founder of Slatkin & Co. and a panel of celebrity judges will select the three winners whose recipes will become part of the Bath & Body Works Holiday Gourmand Candle Collection, and sold across the country.

Exclusive footage of the competition will air on MyCandleRecipe.com and fans will be asked to vote for one of the three winners who deserves to win the grand prize -- a return trip to New York City later this year to join Harry Slatkin at the Bath & Body Works headquarters to aid in the creation of his or her official Slatkin & Co. Holiday Candle.
