The Fine Print

Judges aren’t just casually shouting, “I love tiramisu!” You’ll have to taste dozens of recipes over three days — about 240 in total. That’s a whole lot of coffee, mascarpone, and cocoa. And yes, food coma is guaranteed.

Here’s the not-so-sweet part: travel, accommodation, and recovery from your dessert hangover aren’t included. But bragging rights? Absolutely. You’ll forever be able to say you were an official tiramisu judge — the kind of title you casually drop at every dinner party for the rest of your life.
