The medals of the FIPGC\u00a0World Championships of Pastry Ice Cream and Chocolate and the FIPGC World Championships of\u00a0Cake Design<\/strong> are made by the Omea company of Milan that over the last\u00a0130 years is working in this field.<\/p>\n

To realize the medals, they first\u00a0start by the creation of the sketches and the making of the models, and in our case,\u00a0with the brand of the International Federation of Pastry Ice Cream and Chocolate which is reproduced with the three-dimensional pantograph by the sculptor.<\/p><\/div> <\/div> [vc_empty_space][vc_custom_heading text=”Technical characteristics the Medals” font_container=”tag:h1|font_size:20|text_align:center|color:%23000000″ use_theme_fonts=”yes”]

It is used a round metal with the diameter of 8 cm, placed under a 1000 tons press. The press compresses the metal which gains the image back and forth of the medals; the access metal is removed by a lathe so the edges of the medal\u00a0are perfect. To give sheen to the relief of the medal, it is passed over a cleaner creating\u00a0contrasts with shiny and matt.<\/p>\n

Immediately after they are immersed into a hot gold bath and galvanized,\u00a0so that the precious metal will properly stuck to the medals, drying shall take place.<\/p>\n

At the end, with a diamond-tip, the writings\u00a0are engraved and to allow the winners to wear them, the Federation branded ribbons\u00a0are fixed.<\/p><\/div> <\/div> <\/div><\/div>
