Oscars 2025 has culminated and how. With Ariana Grande’s performance and Mikey Madison taking home the award for the best actress, movie buffs are all over the internet looking for videos and photos, but epicureans all over the world are mesmerised by Chef Wolfgang Puck’s creations.
The video of the feast curated by him has gone viral. Gold-dusted chocolate replicas of Oscars Awards to culinary masterpieces shining amid the spread, take a look at everything that was on the Oscars 2025 menu.
Oscars 2025 Menu: Traditional Delicacies
While Chef Wolfgang Puck did create a few new things, he did not shy away from serving traditional recipes like chicken pot pie, which if reports are believed to be true is a favourite of Barbara Streisand. Similarly, foodies also spotted cacio e pepe macaroni - a marriage between the sharp heat of black pepper and creamy cheesy sauce as the base.
Smoked salmon in the shape of an Oscars Awards stole the show in the dining section. A few other regulars included cauliflower toast, miniature wagyu cheeseburgers, and Spago’s legendary tuna tartare.

Oscars 2025 Menu: Sweet Delicacies And Cocktails
Chef Wolfgang Puck is always the star of the culinary space at the Oscars, but he is often accompanied by exemplary pastry chefs and mixologists who help him make the menu of the evening talk of the town.

Each creation is a perfect melange of crispy crumble and creamy layers. Desserts like chocolate cigars and Oscar cookies with the Academy Awards logo encapsulated the lavish vibe of the show.

While gold-dusted chocolate Oscar statues were staples, pina colada eclair shaped like an Oscar Award was something new and eye-catching. Apart from these creations, Mixologist Charles Joy created some refreshing drinks with many featuring tequila as the start ingredient to match the Mexico-set musical Emilia Perez theme. One such example was Standing Ovation created by blending tequila, espresso, smoked salt water, and fig syrup. He was quoted saying, “We’re celebrating actors, we’re celebrating directors, we’re celebrating cinema.”
