Taste of Croix Valley.

Great recipes begin with great flavor, and the 2026 Taste of Croix Valley Online Recipe Challenge proved exactly that. Home cooks put their creativity on display using Croix Valley products to develop award-worthy dishes, with many exceptional entries rising to the top. These four winners have now secured their Golden Tickets to the 2026 World Food Championships, where they'll continue their journey in Indianapolis this October.

World Food Championships will be bringing you more online recipe challenge opportunities to earn a Golden Ticket for 2027. Follow WFC on social media and check back regularly for updates, official dates, and submission details as next year's challenge(s) approach.
