New Product Showcase
New Product Showcase
The New Product Showcase was the top event for all decision-makers. Here exhibitors showed their products that had been newly developed after the last ISM. In a high-quality special exhibition you could find out about the innovations in the confectionery and snack sector.
The top innovations were selected by an independent and expert jury - experts from the fields of industry, trade and science. The three best innovations were awarded prizes and honoured on 1 February 2026on the Talks & Tasting Stage.
The top 3 innovations of ISM in 2026 are:

3. Winner: Cookie slab “Cinnamon Roll”
Product: Cookie slab “Cinnamon Roll”
Company: Gottfried Wicklein GmbH & Co. KG
The very first Christmas-themed cookie slab.
Crafted from fine cookie dough and topped with a delicate sugar glaze, each slab evokes the taste of a freshly baked cinnamon roll. It brings together everything we love about winter days: the scent of cinnamon, a cozy feeling of comfort – and, of course, the unmistakable taste of Wicklein.
The intricate holiday ornament pattern turns the slab into a little edible work of art.
