2005 NZ Ice Cream Awards

The ninth New Zealand Ice Cream Awards were presented at the annual NZICA Conference in Napier on Friday, 17th JUNE 2005.

155 entries were submitted by 16 manufacturers for judging by four judges, Mr Garry Baker from Sydney, Ms Kay McMath, Ms Christine O’Sullivan and Ms Joanna Boese from Auckland.

International judging guidelines were followed with each ice cream starting off with 100 points from which points are deducted due to various imperfections such as appearance defects, body and texture, flavour defects and melting defects.

Entries were in 9 categories which included an Export Category (to include/exclude packaging) and Kids Choice.
