Every spring, Walnut Hill College holds its very own in-person Culinary and Pastry Competitions to discover and recognize rising talent among high school students. Each competition is open to seniors and is separated into two divisions: high school and vocational-technical school.

Each division of the Culinary and Pastry Competitions awards scholarships to three winners in the amounts of $6,000, $4,000, and $2,000 to be used toward tuition at Walnut Hill College. 

Because we believe that putting yourself out there and taking a risk should be celebrated, we also offer all participants in the competitions $1,000 scholarship if they do not place in the top three. 

The high school of the first-place winner in each division also receives $500 for its Family and Consumer Science Department or Culinary Arts Program.

Please note: All scholarships awarded to competitors are only redeemable at Walnut Hill College as payment towards tuition.  Also students are only allowed to sign up for either the Culinary or Pastry Competition.
