At the spectacular BFFF Gala Dinner Dance and Frozen Food Awards held on Thursday 15th June 2023 in London, BFFF launched its frozen food awards judging video aimed at showing everyone how our great awards scheme is actually judged.
Retail products were judged by 14 independent consumer panels each consisting of 12 people from all walks of life across the UK and a 15th panel consisting of a group of professional Chefs.
This means that every retail product was sampled 28 times to ensure all entries were fairly and well judged across a varied and wide spectrum of people.
There is a different process for the Foodservice products – they are subjected to the highest standard of judging by a team made up of members from the highly regarded Craft Guild of Chefs which took place at Barnsley College.
This incredible and complex judging process took place over an 8 week period involving 168 consumers, 8 professional chefs, a guest member judge assessing taste, texture, the cooking process, the packaging, presentation and more.
