ADVERTORIAL<br />

MACARON FANS,<br />

READY, SET, BAKE!<br />

For the first time, Oberweis is offering you the possibility to represent Luxembourg<br />

in the international Amateur Macaron Competition. This event, which was<br />

established in 2010, brings a host of great French pastry chefs together, most<br />

of whom are a member of Relais Desserts. Since 2015 international pastry chefs are<br />

also welcome, which gives the competition a multicultural dimension. After teams<br />

from Canada and Italy took part in 2017, and one year later, even from Japan<br />

and Belgium, Luxembourg has now also accepted the challenge, in partnership<br />

with the house of Oberweis!<br />

Kick-off for registrations is December 10 th at 7 pm!<br />

Find the link to participate in this extraordinary event on our website and on our social media.<br />

The first 20 registered candidates will be able to take<br />

part in the international Amateur Macaron Competition.<br />

No particular knowledge is required. You need only be<br />

one of the fastest to register in order to take part. You can<br />

be an absolute amateur, without any patisserie training at<br />

all. As soon as you are registered, the organising body<br />

will check your details and contact you to inform you<br />

about participation.<br />

From then on you will have time until February 1st to hone<br />

your recipe and – who knows – make it into a winning formula…<br />

On February 1st, you must hand in the prescribed<br />

number of macarons and your recipe to Oberweis.<br />

A jury made up out of industry experts will then decide<br />

who of the twenty candidates will represent Luxembourg<br />

in the contest. Of course, all twenty registered participants<br />

will receive a present!<br />

Only the winner is invited (various costs included) to<br />

take part in the big final in the South of France. They will<br />

be able to dive into the world of gastronomy and will have<br />

the luck to meet renowned pastry chefs and bloggers. In<br />

order to win, the candidate must prepare a second macaron,<br />

different to the one created in the first instance. This<br />

second macaron will be introduced to a sympathetic and<br />

curious jury, made up out of chefs and important personalities<br />

of the confectionary industry.<br />

In order to provide our candidate with the greatest<br />

chance of winning, they will be accompanied by the<br />

Oberweis team in the months leading up to the big<br />

day. They will receive coaching and practice lessons<br />

in order to perfect their macaron. The following year,<br />

the candidate will be a juror in the pre-selection panel.<br />
