The World Chocolate Masters is the premier international event for top chocolate professionals. The international competition initiated and sponsored by Barry Callebaut recognizes and celebrates the professionals’ innovation, artistry and technical skills. Contestants are chosen for their flair and competence – talents that are put to the test in front of an international panel of food experts.
The “Oscar” in chocolate making
 
The World Chocolate Masters was initiated in 2004. It brought together two of the gourmet profession’s most prestigious competitions: the “Grand Prix International de la Chocolaterie” organized in France by Cacao Barry and the “International Belgian Chocolate Award” organized by Callebaut in Belgium.
 
The World Chocolate Masters competition includes national pre-selections all over the globe. The 2007 final was held in Paris at the “Salon du Chocolat Professionnel” from October 20-22, 2007. The winner was Japanese Naomi Mizuno, who also won awards for best showpieces and best chocolate pastry.
