Maggi’s culinary competition promotes interest, food education

YOUNG MAGGI CHEFS: MAGGI brings out the talent in the young.

PUTRAJAYA: Homemade meals are more than rustling up something in the kitchen for a bite. In fact, cooking a meal from scratch gives us the opportunity to prepare fresh, tasty, healthy and balanced dishes where children get a food education and learn cooking skills.

THE CHALLENGE: A watchful pair of eyes hoovers over the young challengers.

THE CHALLENGE: All smiles as challengers coolly cook up their dishes.

As part of Nestlé, the world’s largest food and beverage company with a commitment to Nutrition, Health and Wellness, MAGGI constantly strives to deliver tasty and balanced meals to Malaysians.

The MAGGI® Secondary Schools Cooking Competition aims to inspire schoolchildren to cook homemade meals by giving them the chance to participate in a cooking competition at district, state and national levels.

THE CHALLENGE: The fight is so close…it is the presentation that could bring in more points.
