We love our judges and we also love to see them re We love our judges and we also love to see them representing overseas (especially in their OGAPC Jackets!)

Stephen Pinnuck attended last months IBIE Expo in Vegas, USA as a judge…..

"I first attended IBIE in 2007 when travelling across the world on a scholarship studying Artisan and Sourdough breads. When I looked at the IBIE website I noticed they had and American baking comp & thought I would like to be involved. I emailed them with my baking experience / judging roles and asked if they would like an overseas judge. They replied positively and the rest is history. “The whole show was about 3 times fine foods in total size and some of the equipment blew my mind.” The baking show was run by the Retail Baking Association of America and had judge's from all over the USA and a couple of overseas blowins..... About 14-16 judge's in total. All were allocated sections with mine being Ciabatta which made me happy. I judged with a legend of the American baking industry names John Lupo. Whilst it was a terrific experience it highlights how good our Australian Baking Industry and our products looked as good if not better. There was one judge/bakery owner who made pies but nothing like our quality. Suggested to him he needs to come to Aus next year for a look how we do things!" - Stephen Pinnuck 

Wed also love to congratulate Graham Martin & the team at Ricks on 6th on their victory in the Best Flat Breads category at the IBIE World Bread Competition; Ricks on 6th earned the distinction of being the global winner for Flat Breads. Graham is a past Overall Winner of our 2008 Plain Pie & Overall Gourmet Pie in 2007! This is a phenomenal achievement in the world of baking and we congratulate them! @rickson6th

We thank them both for their contribution to our competition.
