Amateur macaroon International competition final

11/16/2021 - During the Salon du Chocolat that took place this weekend in Vannes, Ms. Chantal AUBISSE, originally from Limoges, won the Amateur Macaroon International Competition. With its delicious macaroon called “Around the coffee”, composed with a star anise coffee ganache, a coffee cream and a chocolate disc, perfectly balanced, she took legitimately the first place!  

At the initiative of Vincent Guerlais in 2010, joined by several of his Relais Desserts colleagues over the editions, it's grown into an international competition. This year, it was 14 finalists, selected in national competitions and in neighbouring countries: Italy, Luxemburg and Belgium… and 14 Pastry Chef organizers.

Our congratulations to the winner, to Myriam MONNEY (2nd place) and Christine MARTIN NGUYEN (3rd place), and to all the other candidates! A warm thank you and congratulations are extended to Vincent Guerlais, Relais Desserts President, and Alain Chartier, MOF ice-cream and World Champion, who managed to run the event successfully that Rémy Cointreau Gastronomie are pleased to have participated.
