Toquicimes consistently brings new surprises, such as the French team selection for the 2025 World Fondue Championship, scheduled to be held in Tartegnin, Switzerland. This year’s competition spotlights crozets, the traditional square-shaped pasta from Savoie.

Moreover, guests can look forward to a novel experience: the Savoyard Mâchon, a communal feast where friends and family unite to enjoy mountain delicacies, charcuterie and cheese — an essential experience for festival-goers.
