Here’s what Katya Simmons, our managing director had to say
“Toque d’Or® is always a highpoint of the year – for competitors and everyone here at Nestlé Professional. We wondered whether there was any way that we could capture that magic. To give potential entrants a flavour of the competition, as well as creating a lasting reminder for all who took part.
Toque d’Or® TV gives us the opportunity to do just that. And we’re looking forward to making it an integral part of the competition moving forwards.”
