Mark your calendars for a deliciously unique event that's sure to toast up the summer! On Thursday, August 1, at 11:30 AM MST, Kneaders Bakery & Cafe in Phoenix will transform into a culinary arena for the Kneaders Gourmet Toast Contest for Kids. Nestled at 4730 East Ray Road, this friendly neighborhood cafe is gearing up to host a fun-filled competition unlike any other.
Imagine the scene: children armed with spatulas and an array of ingredients such as bread, jellies, spreads, fruit, nuts, herbs, sugars, and pastry creams, all ready to craft their gourmet version of a classic toast. Participants will have a tight 20-minute window to impress a discerning panel of three judges who will be basing their decision on creativity, taste, and presentation. This event is more than just a contest; it's a fantastic opportunity for kids to engage in culinary arts, expressing their creativity while learning the ropes of gourmet cooking in a supportive and festive environment.
Beyond the thrill of competition, every young chef will enjoy perks such as all-you-can-drink soda, a FREE kid's meal, and a 20% off coupon for retail items - making sure that the day is as rewarding as it is entertaining. Parents must accompany their budding gastronomes throughout the event, providing a great opportunity for some quality family time without the need for an extra ticket. This event promises to be a memorable summer highlight where local kids can showcase their culinary talents and maybe even discover a newfound passion for food. So, let the gourmet toast making begin!
