A championship organized by and for the pastry chefs’, this is the explicit definition the organizers of PastryLive use to refer to the second edition of the National Showpiece Championship to be held in Atlanta on Sunday, August 5th, within the framework of PastryLive.Few details about the competition have leaked out, except the names of the captains leading the eight teams fighting for victory, namely: Brian Donaghy, The Criollo Group, Buffalo (NY); Daniel Keadle, Grand Hyatt, San Antonio (TX); Geoffrey Blount, Central Piedmont Community College, Charlotte (NC), Gonzalo Jiménez, Hyatt Regency, New Orleans (LA), Joshua Cain, The Ritz-Carlton, Charlotte (NC), Michelle García, The Bleeding Heart Bakery, Chicago (IL), Theresa Gwizdaloski, RICK Moonen’s RM Seafood, Las Vegas (NV), Thierry Aujard, Sweet Prosperity Bakery.

The names of the main members of the jury have also been revealed, with outstanding figures of a MOF-category, such as Stéphane Tréand, Vincent Pilon, Michelle Tampakis and Andy Chlebana, winner of the first edition of this competition.

PatryLive will also include several other activities. During that weekend, August 3rd to 5th, the Retreat at Perimeter Summit in Atlanta will also hold demonstrations, workshops and other competitions of a maybe lesser repercussion but equally interesting such as The Signature Plated Dessert Competition, The Art of Cake, The Chocolatier of The Year or The Student Chocolate Challenge.
