Colossal is in search of the next culinary superstar to win $25,000, appear on the cover of Taste of Home, and cook with celebrity chef Carla Hall.
PHOENIX, May 29, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Colossal, a well-known professional fundraiser that has raised over $48 million for charity since 2022, is thrilled to announce that the 2024 Favorite Chef competition is officially open for voting. Chefs, aspiring cooks, and culinary enthusiasts have come together to compete in the prestigious competition, where the grand prize includes $25,000 and the opportunity to be featured on the cover of Taste of Home, making this year's competition an exciting culinary endeavor for all competitors.
2024 FAVORITE CHEF TO BE FEATURED ON THE COVER OF TASTE OF HOME
Taste of Home magazine, a leading source of culinary inspiration, will spotlight the 2024 Favorite Chef on its cover, and the champion's story will also be shared inside this popular food magazine. Known for its mouthwatering recipes, cooking tips, and heartwarming stories, Taste of Home celebrates home cooking and will soon showcase Colossal's 2024 Favorite Chef.
HOSTED BY CHEF CARLA HALL
The competition is presented by celebrated chef and TV personality Carla Hall. Known for her roles on Top Chef, The Chew, and her HBO show Chasing Flavor, Hall continues to captivate audiences with her culinary expertise and charm.
SUPPORTING CULINARY EXCELLENCE
Colossal's dedication to culinary excellence extends beyond the kitchen. Having raised over $4.7 million in support of the James Beard Foundation, the Favorite Chef competition builds a supportive community of chefs. This initiative helps the James Beard Foundation promote inclusivity and sustainability, providing essential resources and programs for America's culinary professionals.
"It's hard to convey what this donation means to the James Beard Foundation. To learn in one fell swoop that some of the things we thought were not possible this year, that would have to be deferred to future years, were indeed possible, is a feeling I will never forget," said JBF VP of Development Jaime-Faye Bean at the completion of the 2023 Favorite Chef competition.
TWO TITLES UP FOR GRABS
PEOPLE'S CHOICE: The public will vote to select the 2024 Favorite Chef, celebrating a chef who embodies passion, determination, and creativity. This cook will win the grand prize money, cover feature, professional photoshoot, and Carla Hall experience.
CARLA'S PICK: Select chefs will have the chance to showcase their plating skills and earn recognition from the esteemed Food Network star and competition presenter, Carla Hall. This cook will receive a 'foodie' trip to NYC.
