Polish culinary professionals and students have achieved success in various regional and international competitions. In mid-October, Wiesław Niepokój was named the ‘Sweetness Master of the Year’ for the Podkarpackie Voivodeship, while Wojciech Madyś won the Pizza World Cup 2026 in Italy with an original Margherita pizza.

By late October, the focus shifted to youth competitions. Students in Jelenia Góra won the first Polish Championship of Young Culinary Talents, receiving the ‘Kryształowy Jelonek’ award for a venison dish. Additionally, students in Kędzierzyn-Koźle secured first place in both culinary and waiter categories during the ‘Autumn on the Plate and Table’ provincial competition.
