For its 9th edition, the Coupe du Monde de la Boulangerie, that took place over 4 days during the EUROPAIN show at Paris Villepinte, brought together the 12 best teams in the world. Lesaffre, the competition’s Official Exclusive Partner, enthusiastically salutes the teams’ professionalism. They gave their all and raised this event to an exceptional level never seen before.
Among the 12 teams from the four corners of the world trying for a Coupe du Monde de la Boulangerie podium place, 9 came through the Louis Lesaffre Cup international selections. Thanks to their diligent preparation, a level of excellence that increased during the national and then international selections, and a desire to surpass themselves, these teams put on an acrobatic show, competing with talent to create artistic pieces, baguettes and world breads and sweet and savoury Viennese pastries. Three specialities that would be the deciding factor for the competing teams…
Taking the top podium spot was the SOUTH KOREAN team. Selected in the Asia Pacific Louis Lesaffre Cup held in November 2015, the very last selection, they left their mark on the event. With only two months of training, and faced with some teams who had been preparing for more than two years, South Korea knew how to reinvent themselves and present an exceptional programme, which reflected their exemplary organisation and perfect mastery.
