Ghanaian culinary sensation and digital trailblazer, Chef Abbys known off-screen as Abena Amoakoa Sintim-Aboagye has been selected as the only Ghanaian representative for TikTok at the prestigious 2025 Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity in France.
This groundbreaking moment follows her recent recognition on TikTok’s 2025 Discover List, which highlights 50 global creators who are shaping culture and inspiring creativity around the world.
The 72nd edition of the Cannes Lions Festival, running from June 16–20, will see Chef Abbys featured in a series of high-impact engagements, including:
In Cannes, Chef Abbys will participate in a high-profile Nestlé panel on Wednesday, June 18, and appear at the TikTok Creator Corner on Thursday, June 19. She will also host an exclusive meet-and-greet with fans.
TikTok is using this global stage to spotlight the creators and brands redefining storytelling and innovation on the platform — and Chef Abbys is front and center, flying the Ghanaian flag high.
Her presence is more than a personal win — it’s a national moment of pride and a breakthrough for African representation in global creative spaces. As a cultural ambassador for Ghanaian cuisine, her work celebrates tradition, history, and the power of food to connect people across borders.
With over 1.3 million TikTok followers, Chef Abbys has carved a niche by transforming everyday meals like waakye, kenkey, jollof, and banku into vibrant digital experiences that blend food, culture, and heritage. Her storytelling goes beyond cooking — it’s about preserving identity and igniting curiosity about Ghanaian and African cuisine worldwide.
“Food is my language. Through it, I tell stories, honor my roots, and invite the world to taste Ghana,” says Chef Abbys.
From Accra to Cannes, Chef Abbys is proving that Ghana’s flavors — and voices — belong on the world stage.
