About the National Selection

A chocolate dream of the future. That’s what the Russian national selection was. 5 of the country’s best chocolate chefs battled it out under the watchful eyes of our expert jury.

 

They showcased their excellent chocolate skills and managed to inspire and amaze with their vision of what #TMRW_TASTES_LOOKS_FEELS_LIKE⁠

 

From 100% plant-based to zero artificial colourants or flavour agents. From bonbons to snacks, to brilliant design pieces. A mouthwatering journey that ended with one Russian chef claiming victory and a spot in the 2025 World Chocolate Masters finals.
