Peter Cardoz, son of the late world-renowned Chef Floyd Cardoz, grew up in Verona, New Jersey, surrounded by the flavors and spices his Indian immigrant parents cherished. Inheriting his father’s culinary expertise, Peter embarked on a path that combined his scientific background with his passion for cooking.

In 2021, Peter founded Cardoz Blended Gourmet, a cannabis consulting company that focuses on formulating products for licensed cannabis manufacturers. He also launched a line of hemp-derived live resin-infused culinary products, such as truffle and chili finishing oils. Peter’s aim is to offer innovative products and educate and inspire consumers to create their own cannabis-infused meals. Peter’s journey in the culinary world took him to America’s Test Kitchen: The Next Generation, where he showcased his talent and love for cooking.

Carrying his father’s memory, Peter finds inspiration in the culinary legacy left behind. His mother, Barkha Cardoz, a culinary entrepreneur, upholds their mission through Cardoz Legacy.
