  • Top Chefs

    Posted by on June 22nd, 2012 at 6:52 pm
    There was no shortage of standout individuals behind the booths, including celebrity chefs, enthusiastic small-business owners and even one of the chefs that works at the White House! Great, tasty food is one thing, but when the person that makes the incredible food is a rockstar as well, then nobody leaves hungry!   Here we are with Chef Guy Mitchell, a guest chef at the White House and Vice President's Residence (www.thewhitehousechefs.com). He was fun, charismatic and knew how...

  • Dessert Hybrids Pick Up Speed

    Posted by on June 22nd, 2012 at 6:21 pm
    It's always time for dessert! The combination of familiar snacks and desserts was one of the biggest trends we noticed while scouring the endless aisles of food. Items like Cookie Chips from HannahMax Baking (hannahmax.com) reminded us of potato chips, but with the classic cookie taste. Seth Greenberg (www.browniecrunch.com) had a similar take on the idea, by creating a crunchy brownie that looks like a dark, yet delicious, cracker. ...

  • Lights, Camera, Eat!

    The Fancy Food Show means Fancy Displays! While many booths boasted colorful products or costumed mascots to reel customers in, a few companies went above and beyond with their elaborate, dazzling presentation. Check out some of our favorites below! It seemed as if you simply couldn't escape the aisles and ailes of different oils from practically every country in the Western Hemisphere. After trying endless varieties of chips and salsa, we dove into the olive oils, complete with hints of cit...

  • What Are You Hiding Under There?

    Posted by on June 22nd, 2012 at 5:15 pm
    At every trade show we go to, there are always those efforts that become tiresome, boring or simply fall flat. The Fancy Food Show didn't have many of these, but we still noticed some things that left our stomachs grumbling (and not in a good way!). It seemed as if everywhere we looked, we were being cornered by some furry mascot which may, or may not have had anything to do with the product they were trying to sell. Some of them were cute, some were disturbing, but all become repetitive and...

  • Food Marketing Scores A Goal!

    Posted by on June 22nd, 2012 at 4:17 pm
    Food marketing has come a long way! Two exhibits stood out from the crowd and drove straight to the heart of our Best of Show category. The first booth was larger than life - a full-size RV that Delverde Pasta (http://www.delverde.eu/) takes on the road so they can eat and showcase their pasta wherever they like. Not only was the bus impressive, but they were showing a live Italian soccer game from the EuroCup 2012. Needless to say, the crowd of Italian men (and other soccer fans) grabbed our a...

  • Devouring the Summer Fancy Food Show

    Posted by on June 22nd, 2012 at 3:39 pm
    ShowGirlTalk arrived in Washington DC this past weekend, hungry for the latest in food trends, innovations and samples! The Fancy Food Show is always a favorite of ours, as the exhibitors tend to hold nothing back in their displays and enthusiasm for their products. An estimated 2,300 exhibitors filled the trade show floor, from over 100 countries around the globe. They showcased over 180,000 products, from subtle flavors of olive oil and vinegar, to mountains of cheese and new twists on childho...
