Shaw orders up another course of Recipe to Riches

Following a successful first season that saw “G-lo” become something of a household name, Shaw Media confirmed today that Recipe to Riches will be back for a second season.

The competition-based reality series is produced by Toronto-based Temple Street Productions and aired on Food Network Canada last fall.

The second season is slated for a fall 2012 broadcast.

The series sees contestants’ compete against one another in seven food categories for the chance to see their recipe developed into an on-shelf President’s Choice product available at Loblaw grocery stores within days of the episode airing. The grand prize winner receives $250,000.

A casting call for the second season went out today, alongside the announcement of the second season.

The first season saw 82-year-old Glo “G-lo” McNeill take the top prize with her Luscious Lemon Pudding in a heart-warming finale.

Loblaw is once again on board as a sponsor for the series.
