Tiptree World Bread Awards with Brook Food returns for the fifth year

Calling all Suffolk bakers! Tiptree World Bread Awards with Brook Food returns for the fifth year to celebrate and reward the skill of bread making.

Open to both professionals – artisan bread makers, small high street bakers – and amateurs, there are fifteen categories including the KitchenAid Young Baker Award for the next generation of bakers.

An expert panel of judges will apply their strict criteria to over 500 sweet and savoury loaf entries.  One further category is chosen by the public, The People’s Choice, allows bread fans from across the country to vote for their favourite bakery.

Entries must be registered by 5 September 2017 in time for the Judging Day on Wednesday 27 September at Westminster Cathedral.   Winners will be announced at a harvest-themed reception in central London in October.

The overall winner receives a cheque for £1000, an iconic KitchenAid Artisan 6.9L Bowl-Lift Stand Mixer, an Artisan Two-Slot Toaster and an Artisan Kettle (RRP £1200).  The winners of the two KitchenAid Young Baker categories each receive a KitchenAid Artisan 4.8L Stand Mixer in Empire Red.
