singapore, 22 August 2019 – If you are passionate about your art and culinary skills, now’s the time to prove your mettle and take the leap into a competition arena - and the best place for culinary, pastry or barista professionals to compete is at Food&HotelAsia (FHA), Asia’s largest and most comprehensive food and hospitality trade event. The search for Asia’s next top chefs, baristas and latte artists is on as registrations are now open to compete in the highly anticipated FHA Culinary Challenge (FCC), the Barista Super Duo Challenge and Latte Art Showdown.

With 40 years of experience, FHA has amassed recognition worldwide for setting benchmarks for being the leading authority and trendsetter for the food and hospitality markets in Asia. For its upcoming 2020 edition, the event is expanded to TWO MEGA EVENTS, TWO DATES – FHA-HoReCa and FHA-Food & Beverage, to provide an enhanced experience and personalised engagement, while meeting the diverse demands of the food and hospitality industry.

FHA-HoReCa, held 3-6 March 2020 at the Singapore Expo is where the world’s leading hotels, restaurants and café suppliers will gather to showcase the latest foodservice & hospitality equipment, products and services to discerning distributors, importers, manufacturers and retailers from Asia.

At the same venue from 31 March-3 April 2020, industry professionals, including distributors, importers, manufacturers and retailers from Asia will get to see and source from some of the world’s finest display of food ingredients, drinks and fresh produce from global top manufacturers and brands – at FHA-Food & Beverage.

High octane competitions are held across FHA-HoReCa and FHA-Food & Beverage, providing not just professionals and budding apprentices a conducive stage to learn, gain exposure and recognition for their craft and profession, but also to offer attendees an incredible, all-rounded experience at the events.


FHA Culinary Challenge
The FCC, since its introduction as Salon Culinaire in 1978, is Asia’s most prestigious international culinary competition, supported by the World Association of Chefs’ Societies (WACS), Singapore Chefs’ Association and regional chef associations. The upcoming FCC will feature several new competitions happening alongside regular highlights – the FCC Gourmet Team Challenge, Apprentice Team Challenge and FCC Individual Challenges in Patisserie – Display & Practical, Culinary Art Displays and Practical Hot Cooking.

The new FCC competitions:
  • Singapore Cuisine Team Challenge – celebrating the colourful and delectable cuisines of Singapore
  • Young Chefs Skills Challenge – a contest for under 23 years of age, focusing on the fundamentals of cooking

Registrations for the competitions are open to chefs in training and culinary professionals.
Pastry Challenges
Pastry chefs and enthusiasts – heads up as a new competition is coming to town. Open to competitors under 21 years of age, the Asian Junior Pastry Cup is designed to provide a solid training ground for the younger generation of pastry chefs in Asia. The top three teams from the Asian Junior Pastry Cup will compete in the World Junior Pastry Championship 2021 held in Rimini, Italy.

Hailed as the biggest pastry competition in Asia, the Asian Pastry Cup is the official selection platform where top three Asian teams will compete at the World Pastry Cup in Lyon, France. Held in tandem with the Asian Pastry Cup is the C3 (Chocolate Chef Competition) and the Global Star Chefs Pastry Show.

Returning for its second edition, the Asian Gelato Cup, supported by the Singapore Pastry Alliance, Gelato e Cultura S.r.l. and Italian Exhibition Group Expo S.p.a, will see up to eight national teams competing to create the best gelato, plated dessert, gelato cake and an artistic showpiece. The top three teams will compete in the Coppa del Mondo della Gelateria (Gelato World Cup) in 2022 in Rimini, Italy.

Teams for Asian Junior Pastry Cup, Asian Pastry Cup and Asian Gelato Cup will be pre-selected in national competitions to represent their country/region in the Asian leagues.

Coffee Challenges
Up-and-coming and seasoned baristas can pit their skills in the two coffee challenges – Barista Super Duo Challenge and Latte Art Showdown. The Barista Super Duo Challenge will have teams competing to prepare four types of beverages within a given time frame of 18 minutes.
