It’s baker versus baker in the tastiest and most exciting competition ever to hit local television. Joseph Gandionco, Julie’s Franchise Corporation‘s President and CEO, wants to create a baking show that highlights the students’ dreams, their competitive school spirit in the battle for school pride. The concept was inspired from different reality TV shows like the Master Chef, Cupcake Wars and The Apprentice rolled into one. Thus, the Julie’s Chief Baker project was born.
Thirteen schools in thirteen weeks of heated competition. The competing schools vying for the first Julie’s Chief Baker title are: Asian College of Technology, Benedicto College, Cebu Eastern College, Cebu Institute of Technology University, Cebu Mary Immaculate College, Cebu Technological University Danao and San Francisco Camotes, International School of Hotel and Restaurant Management, Mandaue City College, St. Cecilia’s College, University of Cebu Lapu-Lapu Mandaue, University of Cebu METC SEACAST, and University of Southern Philippines Foundation.
Hosted by my good friend, Jiggy Cerna, the Julie’s Chief Baker show is sure to keep audiences glued as the kneading and baking pave the way for personalities to arise in the kitchen as the competition heats up. There will be three judges. One of them is resident and Head Judge Chef Sean McSavaney of ISCAHM Cebu, the other two are guest judges who love to write/cook/bake/eat food.
What’s at stake for these student bakers?
The winning team will be awarded a kitchen showcase valued at P200,000. Winning team will receive P60,000 and the coach will receive P20,000.
