Get the inside scoop ahead of the Nestlé Professional 2025 Toque d’Or entry challenge
Nestlé Professional is inviting all registered students and lecturers to an exclusive online Hangout session to help them successfully navigate this year’s Toque d’Or entry challenge.
The informal session, led by Camila Cabral, strategic partnerships and events planning lead at Nestle Professional, will feature a special talk from last year’s back-of-house winner and 2025 judge, Geraldine. She will share invaluable insights including her experience during the competition, how it has benefitted her career so far, and her top tips for success.
Attendees will also hear from Nestlé Professional’s development chef Paul Hawkins, and coffee specialists Aaron Dunn and Jo Walsh. The trio, who are judging this year’s entries, will share practical advice on how students can successfully complete their entry challenges.
Camila Cabral said: “This informal Hangout session is a fantastic opportunity for students and lecturers to ask questions, gather insights, and build confidence as they prepare for the competition. It’s about more than just winning—it’s about learning from the best and understanding what it takes to succeed in the hospitality industry.”
