A virtual cooking even styled after the
Great British Bake-off will be held during the
Kubernetes celebration Event hosted by CNCF Ambassador Kat Cosgrove on Saturday Dec 12 at 12pm PT.
- Contestants will have 90 minutes to cook a Kubernetes themed dessert. Anything goes, as long as the majority of preparation is done live. The competition is open to all skill levels, from baking from a cake mix to grinding your own flour as long as you can theme it to Kubernetes.
- Contestants will be responsible for their own recipes and acquiring their ingredients. If you need help with either of these, let us know!
- Contestants will be expected to join a video conference call 30 mins prior to kick off, and should have a phone or ipad with a stand (or a patient friend ) to capture them preparing their dessert.
- Our Host and Commentators will provide commentary on our contestants and will ask each contestant questions through the event.
At the end of the 90minutes we’ll be joined by an esteemed group of expert judges who will judge your [hopefully completed] dessert on the following criteria:
- Execution: How well does it fit the “Kubernetes theme”
- Appearance: How does it look ?
- Taste: Obviously the judges can’t taste it, so they’ll need to be creative for this one.
We’re looking for cooks of all backgrounds and talents. If this sounds like fun to you and you want to cook with us, email
pczarkowski@vmware.com with the subject “Great Kubernetes Bake-off”. List your name, company you work for, your self-assessed cooking skills ( from 1 to 5, 5 being Gordon Ramsey ), a twitter handle (or other social media) and any other details you wish to provide.
