“International coffee, tea and confectionery
showcase draws a record number of visitors
11,000 visitors at Southeast Asia’s largest gathering of the coffee, tea and bakery industries.”

Thanks to the media invitation to this highly successful event, Café Asia 2017, International Coffee & Tea Industry Expo (ICT) 2017 and Sweets & Bakes Asia 2017

Spanning 5,000 square metres this year, Café Asia 2017, ICT Expo 2017 and Sweets & Bakes Asia hosted 168 exhibitors from all around the world namely, Australia, Brazil, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Myanmar, Netherlands, Philippines, Rwanda, Singapore, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, Timor-Leste and Vietnam.

The 3-day exhibition raised the bar for three industries with innovations that offered solutions for new recipes, better tasting products and productivity. It introduced some of the latest innovations, developments and technologies at exclusive workshops, classes and demonstrations and on the exhibition floor by industry experts, on everything coffee, tea and baked goods. Visitors discovered new sources and a wide array of supplies and innovative and cutting-edge equipment for cafes and bakeries, from coffee beans from traditional and non-traditional coffee producing countries, tea leaves, taste elevating baking ingredients, new exciting brews like Expresso Martini by Justin Metcalf and delectable gelato flavours.

Some 11,000 visitors, including myself, were offered with insights on the latest trends for the cafe industry.

Just to collate some of these new and/or unique goodness here which have captivated many of us, and worth looking forward to their official launch or wide expansion in Singapore.
