2010 NZ Ice Cream Awards

The 14th New Zealand Ice Cream Awards were announced in Tauranga on Thursday, 20th May 2010.

The Chief Judge Kay McMath and her team of five judges took two full days to judge the large number of entries split over the 11 categories. They used International judging guidelines 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.
