AFBA – Austrian Food Blog Award

I have been following the Austrian Food Blog Award (AFBA) with great enthusiasm for many years. For me, it is not just a competition, but also a wonderful opportunity to share my passion for cooking, baking, and writing with other foodies. Just browsing through the entries, you can feel how much heart, creativity, and attention to detail goes into every single recipe – and that is exactly what makes the AFBA so special.

The AFBA is the most important prize for food bloggers in Austria. It brings the diverse food and gourmet community together and provides a stage for all those who want to share their passion for cooking, baking, enjoying, and traveling with others.

Every year, bloggers can submit their recipes, photos, and stories in various categories – from “Best Recipe” and “Best Food Photography” to “Blog of the Year.” A professional jury evaluates the submissions based on creativity, quality, and storytelling.

But the award is much more than just a prize: it is a meeting point for foodies, journalists, producers, and the gastro scene. This is where new contacts, exciting conversations, and plenty of culinary inspiration are born.

For me personally, participating in the AFBA means, above all, inspiration, exchange, and the joy of sharing my passion for cooking and enjoyment. In this category, you will therefore find the entries I submitted for the award – creative recipes, personal stories, and culinary experiences that carry my signature.

👉 Join me on my AFBA journey, discover my recipes, and cross your fingers for me – maybe I’ll even win an award!
