Donut enthusiasts and experts from all over France will compete for the coveted title of French Donut Champion.
Soft, indulgent, creative… Behind a fresh and delicious donut lies a demanding technique and a level of craftsmanship far more intricate than it seems!
This competition aims to showcase the precision and creativity required to craft an authentic artisanal donut — a creation worthy of standing among the icons of fine pastry, right alongside the classic chocolate éclair.
