Event Outline
Your event host welcomes guests and quickly divide them in to teams, this is followed by a warm up activity piping names on opposing team hats, be careful as names written on hats are the names in which we will refer to them for the rest of the activity!
We have several practical and interactive quiz challenges all packed in to this event, please see below for an outline of each challenge. Please note not all activities may take place as it will depend on time restraints, however we will always include the most interactive and practical challenges first so nobody misses out on the messy fun!
The typical challenges available are:
Cup cake cup: a quick fire cupcake decorating challenge in which the chef will give a 5 minute demonstration icing and decorating cupcakes with sugar flowers its then over to the teams to recreate perfect cupcakes!
Spaghetti Junction: The challenge is to make a bridge out of Spaghetti that will support a toy car or a marble run made out of cannelloni and spaghetti.
Quiz Round: Several quiz based rounds to include identifying chocolate, celebrity chefs, brands and spices.
The Chocolatier: Be warned this round is very chocolaty so roll up those sleeves for this action packed challenge, 50 Belgian chocolates have to be made while the clock is ticking, a professional demonstration on ganache making, tempering and dipping techniques is given, teams must pay attention as the chef will not help once the demonstration has finished, judging will be based on taste, presentation and teamwork.
The Finale: To conclude we will give each team member a lump of pasta dough, the size will depend upon how well they have done in the previous rounds, teams will then be armed with a pasta roller the rules are simple the longest single strand of tagliatelli wins(record currently stands at 6.2 meters)
