NATURAL PASTRY IN THE SPOTLIGHT
For the first time since its creation, the European Pastry Cup 2020 will be held in the heart of the French capital. The event will feature many roundtables, talks and demos by experts who will talk about naturalness in all its forms: between sustainable production and engaged pastry
On January 12 and 13, the 4 teams qualified for the European event will endeavour to offer a gourmet creative performance placing the emphasis on naturalness. At stake: a ticket for the world final that will be held on June 30 and 31, 2021 as part of the Sirha trade fair in Lyon, France.
On January 11, as a prelude to this major contest for the industry, a one-day event featuring talks, demos and animations will be dedicated to biodiversity and natural pastry.
