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 />
