The 16th edition of the World Championship in 2025
For more than 15 years, it’s been thrilling taste buds, stirring traditions and showcasing a dish that’s as gourmet as it is emblematic.
The World Pâté-Croûte Championship is much more than a competition: it’s a celebration of excellence, a tribute to a dish that is technical, refined and deeply rooted in our heritage. It is uniquely capable of bringing together chefs, pastry chefs, butchers, caterers, bakers and restaurateurs.
In 2025, the event returns with an even more ambitious edition and a high-level international dimension. Candidates from the four corners of the world have been working tirelessly for months: repeated trials, meticulous adjustments, the quest for perfection… to present their masterpiece to an exceptional jury made up of MOFs, Michelin-starred chefs and leading figures in the world of gastronomy. Their sole objective: to win the ultimate title of Pâté-Croûte World Champion.
