Picks Up $5,000 Cheque.
THE Baron Supermom show, sponsored by, Baron Foods Ltd, held its prize giving ceremony on Saturday.
Nelva Antoine emerged the winner of the reality television series.
She was presented with a cheque of $5,000 by Baron Foods Limited Human Resource Manager, Riyad Mohammed. Antoine also won several other prizes.
The gala presentation ceremony was held at the conference room of the Cultural Development Foundation (CDF).
Mohammed asserted that it was a great honour for Baron Foods Ltd to be the title sponsor of the television series. He said the manufacturing company has continuously been an advocate to buy local.
“This show illustrated the use of many locally made products which are inevitably healthier and tastier and can be found at many of our supermarkets and shops,” Mohammed noted.
He observed that the show had captivated the combination of innovative and scrumptious recipes of the participants, which were paired with the locally made Baron Foods products as the main ingredients.
The Baron Foods Ltd official thanked and congratulated all the mothers who took part in the show, declaring that they were all Supermoms.
“We at Baron Foods Ltd hope that this show was able to motivate you as well as inspire your creativity for better things to come. We hope in the near future we are able to dine at your restaurants,” Mohammed said.
He also expressed gratitude to other sponsors and to Choice Television for its “brilliant work” and the “truly creative” idea for the show.
Mohammed urged the television station to expand the creativity by including fathers and children in a possible Baron Super Family cook off.
The Baron Supermom show was officially launched on Friday, April 22, at the Bay Gardens Beach Resort.
The producers of the programme, Choice Television, travelled throughout Saint Lucia to identify mothers to participate.
The first seven episodes of the series comprised auditions, in which the selected mothers prepared meals in their homes to impress Chef Didier Leberre.
Thereafter seven mothers were selected for the challenge rounds in which they cooked according to a theme in an elimination process, until two of the participants faced off in the final episode.
