QLD BAKING INDUSTRY AWARDS ANNOUNCED!
Over 220 of Queensland’s
finest bakers and pastry cooks attended the
18th Annual Baking Industry Association Queensland
(BIAQ) Awards Night held on Tuesday April 20
at Hillstone St Lucia.
Chinese lion dances, a martial
arts display, fire crackers, yum cha and a sea
of vibrant red were all on show to mark the
event, which showcased and celebrated innovation,
dedication and excellence within the baking
industry.
The big winner on the night was Brisbane Bakery
Le Bon Choix who took out both Brisbane Bakery
of the Year as well as the Queensland Bakery

"the best choice", and after tasting
the goodies from this French patisserie with
two Brisbane locations, BIAQ had to agree.
With a dash of Parisian flair
and charm, Le Bon Choix, run by Frenchman Savico
Basset-Rouge impressed with their tempting range
of freshly baked sweet and savoury delights,

Savico will now be off to Malaysia
