Dear Baker friend, We are seeking America’s very finest bread bakers for our bread competition: https://www.worldbreadawardsusa.com You work so hard and with such skill and dedication, – you deserve to be celebrated! And the top loaf will win $1000. I came to New York in August 2016 for a family wedding, and on our first night, we went to a neighbourhood restaurant, Provini, in Park Slope, Brooklyn. I tasted the focaccia – and it was the best focaccia of my life. It turned out they make it in the restaurant every night. At the wedding, we had more amazing breads… So the idea was born to bring our competition for the United Kingdom’s best bread bakers to the United States – and celebrate you! We have 13 categories, from Bagel to Sourdough, from Baguette to Ciabatta. Make sure you register your beautiful bread by Sunday September 30. We and our amazing panel of judges can’t wait to see you. Very best baking wishes, Caroline Kenyon Founder/Director Tiptree World Bread Awards with Food is GREAT Supported by American Bakers Association Twitter, Instagram and Facebook @breadawardsUSA For more information: Cat Shaw 00-44-7866 689932 Editor’s Notes: Tiptree is headline sponsor of the World Bread Awards USA. The first Tiptree preserves were made in 1885 and Tiptree jams and preserves are now sold across the world, many of them made with fruit still grown on their farms in Essex www.tiptree.com Tiptree has always had strong links with the USA. Scott Goodfellow, Wilkin & Sons Joint Managing Director commented, “C. J. Wilkin, the son of our founder, toured several states back in the 1890s, to learn about fruit growing and jam making. New York City has a global reputation for excellent food, so it makes the perfect spot for the inaugural overseas Tiptree World Bread Awards. We are very much looking forward to discovering the world of artisan bread that is available across the USA.” The Food is GREAT campaign is a government initiative to support UK food and drink exports and to increase positive public perception and demand of UK food and drink around the world. www.great.gov.uk The American Bakers Association (ABA) is the Washington D.C.-based voice of the wholesale baking industry.
