FremantleMedia and FremantleMedia Enterprises has acquired the international format and licensing rights to show Recipe to Riches.

The announcement:

FremantleMedia and FremantleMedia Enterprises (FME) today announced the acquisition of the format and licensing rights to Recipe to Riches. The show, created by Temple Street Productions, is a new reality competition series that sees home cooks battle for a cash prize and the chance to have their original recipe chosen and sold nationwide in a supermarket chain.

Already a hit in Canada, Recipe to Riches kicks off with a cross-country search where a panel of food experts choose finalists in a new food category each week. These categories can include anything from Sweet Puddings and Pies, to Cakes, Appetizers, Main Courses, or Sweet and Savoury Snacks. The top three finalists in each category fight for their recipes to be chosen as the category winner and awarded the weekly cash prize. The winning products are then immediately made available in grocery stores nationwide, allowing viewers to taste the products before they cast their vote to decide the ultimate Recipe to Riches champion.
