Four Malaysian pastry chefs: Chef Kean Yap
(team coach), Chef Mun Pui Teng (team captain and sugar
candidate), Chef Goh Jun Wei (ice candidate) and Chef Lim
Boon Chuan, (chocolate candidate) will demonstrate their skills and creativity
at Coupe du Monde de la Pâtisserie 2023 in Lyon, France on 20 and 21 January 2023.
Also known as the Pastry World Cup, the Debic
supported Team Malaysia will have to create a Sugar Sculpture with Chocolate Entremet,
Chocolate Sculpture with plated desserts, Ice Sculpture with Frozen Desserts
and Frozen Lollipop.
Centred around the theme of ‘climate change’, the
two days of intense competition, spanning over for 10 hours, will see Team Malaysia will go up against teams from 20 other countries.

Malaysia emerged as champion with their cutting-edge creations.
