This ensures that all products will be judged in their freshest, most perfect state.<\/p>\n<h3>Which competition should you enter?<\/h3>\n<p>Because we are running our plain\/origin and flavoured bean-to-bar chocolate competitions separately from our Craft Chocolatier Competitions, if you are a company that creates products relevant for both, you might not be sure which competitions you should enter your specific products to.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><em>Regional Craft Chocolatier Competitions<\/em><\/strong> accept and judge chocolate products made from couverture or the entrant&#8217;s own bean-to-bar chocolate, both having a clearly traceable source for the cacao used.<br \/>\n<strong>Product types accepted:<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0filled chocolates, truffles, ganaches, pralines, caramels, fondants, enrobed fruits and nuts and spreads made from chocolate couverture or from the entrant&#8217;s own bean-to-bar chocolate, as well as flavoured chocolate bars made from chocolate couverture (but not bean-to-bar).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em><strong>Regional Bean-to-Bar Competitions<\/strong><\/em> accept and judge plain\/origin chocolate bars and flavoured chocolate bars made from the entrant&#8217;s own bean-to-bar chocolate, all products having a clearly traceable source for the cacao used.<br \/>\n<strong>Product types accepted:<\/strong> (all bean-to-bar!) plain chocolate bars, single origin plain chocolate bars, flavoured chocolate bars, flavoured single origin chocolate bars.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>As an example, a company creating bars and filled chocolates from their own bean-to-bar chocolate should therefore enter their plain\/origin and flavoured bars to the relevant Regional Bean-to-Bar Competition (eg. Americas, Europe\/EMEA, Asia-Pacific) and their bonbons, drag\u00e9es, spreads to the relevant Regional Craft Chocolatier Competition (eg. Americas, Canada, Eastern Europe, DACH, Asia-Pacific etc.).<br \/>\nWhereas, a company creating bars and filled chocolates from couverture, should enter all of their products to the relevant Regional Craft Chocolatier Competition.<\/p>\n<p>We hope that this explanation makes it clearer where to enter your chocolate products.
