I'm helping to promote the Pastry World Cup (Coupe du Monde de la Pâtisserie) in both catering circles and to the wider general public and to this end I have created a pinterest board
uk.pinterest.com/chefkevinashton/coupe-du-monde-de-la-p%C3%A2tisserie-pastry-world-cup/
Which is a place were you can view both official photographs and video clips from the contest in one place. I also make a point of labelling and discribing each photo so that both chefs and the general public get a better understanding of what this competition is all about. I first attended the competition in 2009 as a writer and have been hooked on the contest ever since.
Equally, I am amazed that after 26 years how little known the contest is outside of culinary circles.
With the help of everyone here I am hoping to change that and get the event onto UK TV (as it is in France).
This year the One show did a very brief magazine style news report but I'd like to see the beeb do more.
I do add additional photos and videos to my pinterest board from time to time so please stop by often.
*The photo is of course Captain Hook and made by the winning Italian team from pulled sugar. To see the complete display go to my pinterest board.
