17th Annual Quady Dessert Competition
  • Entry deadline Friday, February 9, 5 p.m.
  • Download entry form

Pastry chefs and cooks are invited to enter the Quady Dessert Competition, which brings a delicious touch to the Playhouse Winefest for a 19th year. The competition is judged by respected chefs and food media. Entrants are judged on how well their original creation pairs with Quady Elysium Black Muscat, a dessert wine, as well as presentation, technique and practicality. The winner receives a trip for two to the High Sierra Mountains in California and results are widely publicized. The deadline for entry is Friday, February 9 at 5 p.m. and the competition takes place February 24 and 25. Go to www.planitvancouver.com for the competition application and more details.

Winners will be celebrated:

Friday, March 30, noon 1:30 p.m.
Partners in Wine Lunch: South Australia Fusion – Cuisine, Culture and Wine
Parkview Terrace
Vancouver Convention and Exhibition Centre
999 Canada Place
Vancouver

The top 10 finalists will receive special recognition. The Gold, Silver and Bronze winners are required to attend this luncheon to showcase their desserts and establishments at the Quady Winery display table. No desserts will be served to guests at the luncheon - presentation plates only, please. It is requested that finalists’ establishments, where appropriate (i.e. not schools, but all others), feature their winning desserts paired with Quady Elysium for the month of March 2007.
