The National Showpiece Championship calls for competitors to push the boundaries of normal showpiece construction, but without calling for huge financial and personal sacrifices from competitors. Rather than constraining chefs with endless rules and regulations, the National Showpiece Championship is a new form of competition that encourages chefs to compete at the highest level possible. In addition to the National Showpiece Championship, several competitions will be hosted during the weekend of August 3rd, 4th and 5th including the Art of Cake, the Chocolatier of the Year and the Student Chocolate Challenge. New to the competition lineup is the Signature Plated Dessert competition, which highlights the nation’s premier desserts. Featured during Pastry Live Weekend will be seminars instructed by world class chefs from across the country. A wide array of topics will be covered, offering cutting edge techniques and training.
