The competition is open to Culinary Arts of Hotel and Management course students. Original recipes must be submitted in the Breads or Cakes categories.
Baked creations should incorporate a non-functional ingredient and make use of any of the URC Flour brands such as Blend 100 Flour, Continental All-Purpose Flour, Daisy Cake Flour, and Sampaguita Soft Flour.
The shortlisted teams will vie in the Flourish Pilipinas: Bake It Happen! Visayas / Mindanao and Luzon / GMA regional competitions.

The finalists will be given a challenge and a surprise ingredient to use during the bake-off.

With URC Flour brands that cater to every baking need, these future master bakers would surely be able to whip some of the most fascinating creations to showcase their baking prowess," said Ellison Lee, URC Flour VP and General Manager.
Winners will receive trophies, certificates, and more than P300,000 worth of prizes, while the regional grand champions will also receive internships at the prestigious Crowne Plaza Hotel, and will be featured in Yummy Magazine.
