Victory at the World Chocolate Master Central Europe
In November 2024, Warmuth reached a milestone in his career: he won the prestigious World Chocolate Master Central Europe competition to become Austrian & German Chocolate Master. The competition, which was held under the motto "Play", demanded playful and creative chocolate creations from the participants. Warmuth impressed the jury with his unique creations, which were inspired by Vienna and Schönbrunn Zoo. His chameleon showpiece was particularly impressive and also won him the prize for best chocolate sculpture.
Belgium 2026: The world championship is calling
Warmuth's victory secured him a ticket to the 2026 World Chocolate Masters final in Belgium. This competition is considered the most prestigious championship for chocolatiers worldwide and brings together the best talents to compete against each other in various disciplines. The theme of "Play" will also take centre stage there - a challenge that Warmuth should master perfectly with his creative approach.
Mentor and support from Maitre Chocolatier Wenschitz
Warmuth will receive valuable support from Maitre Chocolatier Wenschitz so that he can optimally prepare for the competition. As a renowned chocolate expert, Wenschitz is making his chocolate academy available to him free of charge for training purposes.
