If your child could invent any dish in the world, what would it be?

From imaginative combinations to colourful creations, this is an opportunity for children to express their creativity through food, drawing or describing their ultimate dream dish. 

One entry will be featured in the A Taste of Cheltenham community cookbook, giving younger participants the chance to see their ideas brought to life. (Plus, the winner will get a £50 junior cooking hamper!)

Don’t forget, adults can also submit their own recipes to be featured in the same cookbook, and all proceeds from the cookbook will support Cheltenham Foodbank, helping local people facing hardship. 

How to take part 

Entries can be submitted by downloading, printing, and returning an entry form to Regent Arcade.

Submit your entry by the 27th May – good luck!

And Don’t Miss…
