This is an individual, non-tasted bread display competition. Entries will be judged on visual presentation, technical skill, and craftsmanship only.

1. The theme is open, allowing creative freedom within the stated rules.

2. Each competitor must present one (1) bread showpiece.

3. The bread showpiece must include a minimum of three (3) distinct bread varieties. Variations may be demonstrated through differences in dough type, fermentation method, form, shaping, texture, or baking style.

4. The maximum display space allotted per entry is 45 cm × 45 cm. All elements must remain within this allotted space. No height restriction.

5. All elements of the showpiece must strictly be edible and made from real baked bread.

6. Dummy bread, artificial replicas, or substitute materials are not allowed.

7. No frames, wires, molds, armatures, skewers, rods, or internal supports of any kind are permitted. The bread showpiece must be entirely self-supporting and constructed solely from edible bread components and edible bonding methods (e.g. dough-to-dough bonding, flour or starch paste, sugar-based glues such as caramel or glucose, or other edible binders). Judges reserve the right to cut through or partially dismantle the bread showpiece for inspection to verify compliance. Any use of non-edible materials for structural support will result in disqualification.

8. The showpiece must be fully self-supporting, using edible construction techniques only.

9. All entries must be fully assembled and ready for display by the assigned setup time. No baking, cooking, or construction is permitted once the entry has been placed in the designated display area. Minor retouching may be done prior to placement; however, competitors are allowed a maximum of ten (10) minutes in the designated retouch area to make final adjustments, in order to give way to other competitors.

10. The display must be clean, stable, and safe for public viewing, and free from visible mold or spoilage.

11. No branding, logos, or identifying marks are allowed on the display.

12. Entries will be judged based on the official bread display judging criteria. Judges’ decisions are final.

Please review all competition requirements carefully before preparing your entry.
