The International Chocolate Awards is pleased to announce the Grand Jury Finalists of the 2025 Americas – Latin America & the Caribbean Bean-to-Bar and Craft Chocolatier Competition<\/strong>, which was judged remotely during Summer 2025.<\/p>\n

The judging panel<\/a> included our regular Americas judges, along with many of our IICCT alumni and other specialists from the local area and members of our international Grand Jury panel.<\/p>\n

The Grand Jury Finalists are the entries that made it through to the final Grand Jury round, following an initial technical Selection round and a main round of judging. The Finalists are the nominations from which the Grand Jury select the prize winners, through private voting.<\/p>\n

While listing as a Grand Jury Finalist is an achievement in itself, it does not necessarily indicate that the entry will receive a prize.<\/p>\n

You can find the list of winners here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
