The International Chocolate Awards is pleased to announce the Grand Jury Finalists of the 2019 Peruvian Competition, which was judged in Lima, Peru 8 – 10 July, 2019, at the X Salón del Cacao y Chocolate.
The finalists of the Grand Jury are the entries that reached the final round of the Grand Jury, after three days of evaluation, which included judges from the United Kingdom, USA. UU., Europe and Asia and members of our international panel of the Grand Jury. The panel consisted of chocolate experts, pastry chefs, journalists, restaurant reviewers, bloggers, culinary educators and chefs.
The Finalists are the nominations from which the Grand Jury select the prize winners, through private voting. The Grand Jury follow strict rules, which you can read here (PDF). While listing as a Grand Jury Finalist is an achievement in itself, it does not necessarily indicate that the entry will receive a prize.
