Bread Bakers Guild Of America To Sponsor Team For 2017 Mondial du Pain

Sonoma, CA – The Bread Bakers Guild of America will sponsor a team in the 6th Annual Mondial du Pain competition in October 2017 in France. Applications are now being accepted for the selection process.

In the Mondial du Pain, each team – made up of a Candidate (lead baker) and a Commis (assistant ) – is required to present a variety of bread and viennoiserie, as well a showpiece, within an 8-hour time frame. The Candidate must perform all categories with the support of the Commis during the competition.

As in the Coupe du Monde, preparing for the Mondial du Pain requires a tremendous amount of dedication, commitment and hard work. It is also an incredible learning experience in which the competitors learn and grow in the craft.

Applicants must be active Guild members. For membership information, visit www.bbga.org.

Application deadline: June 24, 2016
