Top 10 Finalists Selected for CTV and Little Potato Company’s $10,000 Culinary Challenge Ahead of Cook-Off on THE MARILYN DENIS SHOW, December 12

This October, CTV and The Little Potato Company partnered to cook up a culinary challenge, offering Canadians the opportunity to win a $10,000 grand prize and cook their original Creamer potato-based dish on THE MARILYN DENIS SHOW alongside celebrity chef and MASTERCHEF CANADA judge Michael Bonacini. Of the numerous entrants from coast-to-coast-to-coast, the Top 10 finalists selected are:

  • Dae Andrew Rickets-Dunn
  • Ionita Wilton
  • Jamie Sabourin
  • Kevin Mitchell
  • Kix Marshall
  • Loreto Nardelli
  • Marioly Legacy
  • Mel Higginson
  • Randolph Jones
  • Victoria Wicks

The competition, now in its fifth consecutive year, invited Canadians to show off their creativity by creating a signature dish containing small potatoes that can be cooked in 30 minutes or less.

The Top 10 finalists submitted a video in which they showed off their cooking chops and their original recipe. The competition was then narrowed down to the Top 2 finalists, who will compete in a head-to-head cook-off on THE MARILYN DENIS SHOW on Thursday, December 12. MasterChef Canada’s Michael Bonacini, and The Little Potato Company’s CEO and Co-Founder, Angela Santiago, will judge the cook-off, and present the winner with the $10,000 grand prize.

Bring on the heat!
