Taste The Rainbow 2022

The Competition

Creations will be judged by our panel of Local Legends on presentation, creativity and taste. There are 5 categories for contestants to enter into: under 12s, under 18s, under 60's, 60+ and then a separate category for professionals/businesses. We will look at all the entries and choose who will be asked to take part. Then we will contact those people, asking for some more information about their food and the full list of ingredients so that we can compile allergen information. We will have a waiting list in case anyone drops out or doesn’t provide us the information we need, so even if you’re not picked at first you might still get your chance!

On The Day

Having provided us with all the information we need to make this a safe and tasty event, contestants will make their creations in their own kitchens and bring them on the day to our Taste The Rainbow Tent. They don’t have to be made on the day, but bear in mind how long your creation will keep for – we want to receive it at its best! We will match up the creations with all the relevant paperwork and set them up for display. Then we’ll open up the tent and invite people to come and see all the delicious entries, before our panel of judges starts their rounds… They will choose the winners, and award the prizes, and then we will close the tent up again so that we can divide up all the food into portions for everyone to share. That’s right – all the fabulous food is going to be given away for free to those enjoying the Queen’s Jubilee celebrations.

How to enter

There are 3 ways to enter:

• Fill in our online entry form – click here!
• Print a copy of the entry form and then scan and send it to us
• We will have some pre-printed copies of the form in a couple of local venues that you can complete and hand back in at the place you got it

We will contact everyone that enters to let them know if they have been selected or not, but only if you provide us with your contact details! Make sure you check carefully that your email address or phone number is correct, or we will have to offer your space to someone else if we don’t get a reply.
