The review of this creative competition mainly revolves around the innovation of the participating works, the feasibility of industrial production, the taste, and the rationality of nutritional formulas.
No branches or complexity, and the imagination of being imaginative has become the common feature of these works. The two-color cookie "On the wheat" is praised because it adds wheat germ, trehalose and a unique green and yellow palace grid shape; "If you don't obey, you will scratch you", using the familiar cat star man born in the 1990s as the introduction, it created a meaty cat claw cookie, which makes people laugh and can't bear to sip; "Eat the APP" cookie is based on the theme of modern people's mobile phone dependence, and advocates that you should use delicious food to get your mobile phone away from the "second line"; "Beijing Xiang" uses Shengdan, Jingmo and Chou in the traditional Peking Opera culture in my country, and based on its personality, it has designed multiple flavors such as sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, and salty.
In this competition, the design of natural plant raw materials selected by multiple entries not only introduced high dietary fiber ingredients, but also brought in ingredients with a variety of nutritional characteristics, catering to the development trend of nutritional, healthy, high-quality and green in the contemporary food market. Taking the "Secret Flower Language" series of cookies that won the courtesan this competition as an example, the design is delicate and natural. The product contains six series, including "little daisy", "violet", "red rose", and "four-leaf clover". Natural pigments and flavor substances are selected, and corresponding flower patterns are designed according to each flavor and color, and flower language is given in a targeted manner. It is combined with packaging and brochures with memories and girls' growth themes, so that consumers can integrate into the artistic conception created by the color, flavor and meaning of the product.

The hard cookies replace traditional low-gluten flour with delicate and nutritious rice flour as raw materials. Red-hearted dragon fruit, spinach, carrots, and purple cabbage are also added. The color combination induces people's appetite. A layer of oatmeal is evenly applied on the back of the cookies to make the taste more crispy; Roshen petals, dried mulberry fruits, and crushed nuts are wrapped in cookies of different colors, and the taste and nutrition are improved to the next level; the soft cookies are added with barley powder and lily powder, supplemented with cocoa powder and matcha powder to make a double-layer cookie cup.

The judges said that the winning cookies such as "If you don't obey, you will scratch you" have novel shapes and creative packaging, reflecting the consumption demands of consumers born in the 1990s. The product creativity included in them is also convenient for use in the production of the food industry. Such competitions provide enterprises with a consumption-oriented role in future innovation.
review experts pointed out that these imaginative creativity of young students have formed a clear stream, which is of great benefit to the company's research and development of products. Cai Jinxin, R&D director of Fujian Panpan Food Group, said in an interview with reporters that it has been eight years since we joined hands with the China Food Science and Technology Society to hold the Panpan Food Cup Baked Food Creative Competition. These students' little creativity in product process design, concept, packaging, etc. have been absorbed in the actual R&D process of the company, which is very beneficial to the development of new products of the company."A good idea will provide reference and inspiration for enterprises in future production and research and development." Over the past 8 years, what made Cai Jinxin feel deeply is that the event has become increasingly influential among universities across the country, and many university leaders have taken the initiative to ask whether they can participate. He said that in the future, he will continue the event with the China Food Science and Technology Society to provide more creative platforms for more students in our country, inspire more inspiration for enterprises, and bring more new products to consumers.
