Craize® Wins 2026 sofi™ GOLD AWARD for Toasted Corn Snacks Everything Flavor at Winter FancyFaire Show!
Last month, I attended the Winter FancyFaire Show in San Diego, and the very first booth that I visited was Craize Crackers. While it was by chance, the first booth I stopped at, I was glad that I did. I was happy that I could stop at a booth that had a snack I could eat. Having multiple food allergies at a trade show can be hard and make tasting samples difficult.
Since I already knew about Craize crackers, I knew that these delicious crackers were dairy-free and gluten-free. So I did not have to spend time reading the ingredient list on the package. So I grabbed a sample of the Everything Craize Cracker Crisp and started my time in the expo hall.
Later that night, I attended the sofi Awards presentation. This event featured samples from some of the brands that were nominated for the sofi Awards. I was pleasantly surprised that the food was labeled with the nine food allergy symbols. So I was able to enjoy some food before the awards.
What are the sofi Awards?
The sofi Awards recognize products that stand out for innovation, exceptional taste, and high-quality ingredients—and signal what’s next for specialty food. The award selection includes 25 Gold Award categories and five Grand Honors distinctions. These awards are chosen through blind tastings by a panel of leading retail and foodservice buyers.
This year, there were more than 1800 entries. Winning a sofi Award is especially meaningful because it’s positive feedback coming directly from the buyers, shaping what’s next in specialty food.

Craize is more than just a cracker
Craize is more than just a cracker; it’s a modern, healthy snack that delivers incredible taste and versatility. “We are thrilled to see our Everything Flavor recognized as a sofi Gold Award winner. We know this great accolade will resonate with retailers and consumers as to how outstanding this vegan, gluten-free, non-GMO, and allergen-friendly product is, yet never compromises on flavor or crunch,”
Craize Snacks are Made With Simple Ingredients
It is easy to see why Craize Snacks was selected for a sofi™ GOLD AWARD at the Winter FancyFaire Show. Craize snacks have a clean label, great flavor, and crave-worthy crunch. Key highlights include:
1. Chip-cracker hybrid – The satisfying crunch of a chip meets the versatile, toppable nature of a cracker.
2. Fire-griddled, never fried –A proprietary slow-griddling process locks in flavor and crispness without added oils.
3. Versatile enjoyment – Perfect for dips, toppings, or enjoying on their own.
4. Real ingredients baked in – Fruits, veggies, and spices are mixed into the dough, not sprinkled on top.
5. Wholesome & allergen-friendly – Vegan, non-GMO, Kosher, gluten-free, seed oil–free, and made in an allergen-friendly facility.
Craize offers five signature flavors with sweet and savory options:
+ Everything – Sesame and poppy seeds blended with garlic and onion for a savory, bagel-inspired bite.
+ Sweet Corn – Lightly sweetened with dark brown sugar, pairs perfectly with jams, nut butters, or guacamole.
+ Guava – Fruity and refreshing with authentic guava puree.
+ Coconut – Infused with dried coconut, vanilla, and cinnamon for a tropical twist.
+ Jalapeño Lime – Zesty with a kick of heat, balanced by cilantro and lime.
Why I love Craize Crackers
These delicious crackers have a unique look and taste. They are perfect for snacking and pairing with your favorite spreads. Craize Crisps give a fancy presentation to a charcuterie board and can even be used in recipes.
My favorite flavor of Craize snacks is the Everything Crisps. These savory crackers taste like a crunchy everything bagel. When I want something sweet, I reach for the Sweet Corn Craize Crisp. A couple of months ago, I featured Craize Sweet Corn in this recipe for Pumpkin Cheesecake Minis.

This is my first time hearing about this brand, and I’m always up for trying new snacks. I love that they offer a variety of flavors, and I can imagine them pairing really well with different dips.
I haven't come across craize snacks before but it's great to hear that they are both dairy and gluten free. The flavours sound really lovely especially the jalapeno and lime.
