If you’re from the area, you may have a mom or a sister or an aunt or a grandma who possesses a personalized 9” by 13” cake/Rice Krispie/7-layer bar pan em-BLAZ-oned with a cute little picture of a watering can or something and a message like “From the kitchen of Grandma Betty.” The personalize-able pans, made by amazingly named Chippewa Falls company That’s My Pan!, are pretty popular in the area, but recently got some national attention on new talky talk show about talking about takable topics – The Talk (not this one – this one).

Sorta celebrity co-host Leah Remini (of King of Queens Saved by the Bell fame) plugged the pans on air last Tuesday, and ka-pow – That’s My Pan! is seeing great sales. "It definitely helped us," the company told the L-T. "We've seen (orders) from New York to Alaska to California. It's everywhere, and that's really nice."

“And that’s really nice.” This is exactly what a Midwestern company making personalized bar pans should be telling the media. Nailed it! So a big thumbs up to a Chippewa Valley company done good!
