Got a product the baking industry needs to taste?

NEW to BakingTECH 2027, First Taste is bringing a product-first showcase to the Formulation Floor, giving bakery and snack brands a chance to share their finished products that are new to many in the room, from international producers, regional favorites, and emerging brands.

3 Reasons to Join the Showcase:
🍪 Get noticed: Put your product in front of industry professionals looking for what’s next.

🤝 Make connections: Start conversations with potential customers, partners, and fellow baking professionals.

🏆 Compete for recognition: Attendees taste and vote for category winners, with one Best in Show winner recognized on stage during a general session.

And you don’t have to be a Formulation Floor exhibitor to participate! Bakers, co-manufacturers, producers, suppliers, emerging brands, and startups are all welcome to enter.

Spaces are limited. Ready to put your product to the test?
