WORLD JUNIOR PASTRY-MAKING CHAMPIONSHIP

Sigep 19-20 January 2019

The future of the profession lies in the hands of the young

The World Junior Pastry-Making Championship, a biennial event, is the brainchild of Roberto Rinaldini. It

is organized by Italian Exhibition Group SpA, under the honorary chairmanship of Emilia Coccolo Chiriotti

and Iginio Massari. In this one-of-its-kind team competition for young recruits to the profession, under-

23 chefs are given a unique opportunity to put their skills to the test and find worthy inspiration for a

successful and stimulating career. The competition is a high-calibre professional event, run to the strictest

and fairest professional standards and held in Italy, the cradle of confectionery and pastry-making art. It

is staged during Sigep, a specialist trade fair for pastry, ice-cream, chocolate and bread-makers from

around the world.

The noble objective the World Junior Championship has set itself is therefore to be a training ground for

large international events for established, more senior professionals, while making it entertaining and

showcasing the talents and future of younger generation pastry-chefs. By spotlighting them, we hope to

engender a sense of belonging and valuable feelings of goodwill, quality, passion, a love of beautiful

things, creativity, collaboration and respect for colleagues. All are part of the ethics underpinning the

sector, giving it solid roots and a constructive vision for the future.

It will be an opportunity to share experiences and a platform for growth for young people who represent

the future of the international pastry-making sector. It is the first competition with a vital role to play in

achieving a career at the highest of technical standards.

edition is: FLYING. It can be illustrated in artistic sugar and chocolate creations and in the ingredients used

to make the required desserts and cakes. Teams must explore new shapes, trace original lines and

innovative decorative effects to give full rein to their imaginations, thinking outside of normal boundaries

to create products of the required type, i.e. a sugar sculpture and a chocolate sculpture, individual

chocolate bonbons, the contemporary chocolate baked cake, the dessert on a plate, and the dessert in a

glass made using ingredients from the team's home country.

competition rules will be withheld and returned to the team after the competition has ended. The

competition will commence at 9am on 19 January and end at 5pm. At the end, the competition

commissioners will check the cubicles to see if tables, fridges, oven, utensils and floors have been cleaned.

Waste baskets - three of which will be given to competitors, one for paper, one for organic waste and

one for plastic - will also be inspected. Additional bin liners can be requested from the competition

commissioner. Teams must bring the necessary materials to clean their cubicles, including brushes to

sweep and scrub, two cloths to wash the floor, a roll of kitchen paper and scrubbing sponges to wash
