Asian Pastry Cup: India wins its first ever bronze

Chefs from India won three awards at the Asian Pastry Cup 2016, held recently in Singapore. The victory has been unexpected for India, which has so far not excelled in the competition where pastry chefs from 11 major Asian countries vie for the top spot, which this year was bagged by host country Singapore, followed by Malaysia.

Apart from the medal, the two-member Indian team from Academy of Pastry Arts, received two more awards. While Chef Mukesh Rawat won the accolade for the most promising talent and Chef Amit Sinha was awarded for Best Chocolate Display showpiece.

Talking about the experience of taking part in the event, Chef Dinesh Rawat, mentor to the team said: “It was a great opportunity to participate in this competition and come back with a bronze medal. No one expected us to do so well. Competing with some of the best teams and getting a positive result was a significant experience.”
