The main objective of the programme was to educate confectionery students about the mysteries of ice cream making. It was an international event, with not only Hungarian but also Italian and masters taking on the role of mentors. Both the professional team captains and the participating students had a great time. Teams had 100 minutes to make two different ice creams. For each ice cream the competitors drew a mandatory ingredient, which was provided by the gold level sponsors. The “mystery boxes” contained 100% oilseed pastes and pestos.
