Vanilla Slice

2. When tasted, the slice should reveal a custard with a creamy smooth texture and a balance of vanilla taste with a crisp crunchy pastry topped with a smooth and shiny glaze/fondant.

​

NOTE Product submitted for judging in the professional and apprentice sections must be available in store for a period no less than 3 months after the date of the competition.

Innovative Vanilla Slice
TEN Vanilla Slices must be presented. May your own imagination be the only limit for your creation. Your slice, however, at a minimum, requires you to showcase both elements of pastry and custard style filling. Be creative with design, colours and flavours if you desire. PLEASE SUBMIT THE TASTE OF YOUR INNOVATIVE VANILLA SLICE FOR JUDGING REQUIREMENTS.
