Once again this year, the fair has rewarded the know-how and craftsmanship through several competitions. On Sunday, February 27, the famous Lyre d'Or Competition was held, organized by the Union des Fromagers d'Ile-de-France, which rewards the know-how in the creation of a cheese platter. Thirteen dairy-cheese candidates from all over France were in the running to produce three works: a today’s tray, a tomorrow’s tray and a cheese preparation. Here are the results.

As part of the Lyre d'Or competition, the candidates had to prepare a presentation responding to the theme "Plateaux d'aujourd'hui et de demain". To do so, participants used their creativity and sense of direction.

Three Lyres of the Cheese Plateau were awarded:

  • Golden Lyre
  • Silver Lyre
  • Bronze Lyre
