As an added bonus, the video and accompanying recipe are then posted online at CTVAtlantic.ca website.
This high profile marketing opportunity is exclusive to FBA members. Over 100 successful live segments have already aired. Some FBA members have participated multiple times. They just love the brand exposure!
