This includes entries for the first ever Pastry Graduate Award which launched earlier this year. Chefs aged 23 and under now have until Sunday 15th May to get their entries to the Craft Guild of Chefs’ Head Office.
From the entries received, there will be a North and South heat to find a maximum of 12 finalists who the judges think could make the grade this year. The heats will take place on Tuesday 28th June 2016.
To enter the Graduate Awards, chefs simply need to complete the paper entry form which includes details of a referee and a statement on what they think it takes to be a great chef.
This year’s awards sees two big changes with the announcement of the first ever Pastry Graduate. This is a completely separate award so even a chef who has already been through the main kitchen element can enter the Pastry Award.
