Entries open for 35th Toque d’Or

Nestlé Professional recently announced that registrations are open for the 35th edition of Toque d’Or. Back- and front-of-house students on levels two, three and four are being urged to complete their entries before the 31st March deadline.

Sustainability remains a key theme for this prestigious competition, with finalists getting the opportunity to sharpen their skills while exploring the latest culinary trends and learning about sustainable farming. The winners will also get to enjoy a once-in-a-lifetime culinary trip to Brazil, sampling high-end gastronomy through to street food, and learning about sustainability on a bean-to-cup journey with the world’s biggest coffee producer.

Katya Simmons, managing director Nestlé Professional UK&I, said: “Toque d’Or has gone from strength to strength over the last 35 years and it’s a delight to shine a light on the talent in the hospitality industry. It’s fantastic to see how well past winners and entrants are doing now; a testimony to their dedication and innate qualities, but also to the skills and confidence they gained during the competition.”
