The Vancouver Foodster 2nd Sundae Challenge was a huge success featuring 8 sundae creations from restaurants around Vancouver. Each restaurant featured their sundae creation from August 4-28, 2016. Our media judging panel determined the ultimate winners of the challenge, and this was quite the task as each judge who tasted each creation with a rigorous process based on taste, originality/uniqueness and presentation/appearance.
Both of the 1st place and 2nd Winners in the Media judges category were also the 1st and 2nd place winners in the People’s Choice category in this challenge.
