Judging criteria
Appearance – 20 points
They say we eat with our eyes first. Does the cheesecake look appetising and entice you to taste it?
Flavour – 30 points
This always has to be the most important attribute – food should be delicious!
Authenticity/Innovation – 10 points
Is the cake innovative in its cooking style or ingredients? Does the innovation work in its flavour and appearance? Alternatively, if it is a traditional style, is it authentic to that tradition?
Consistency – 20 points
Is one part of the cheesecake as good as the next? Is the texture consistent throughout? If there are different textures is each one consistent?
Quality of finish – 10 points
Is it beautifully finished all round? Has it been presented well?
Likeability – 10 points
Is there something which has the judge wanting to come back for more? Has it got the amazing cheesecake factor?
