    Abstract: This article provides critical engagement with cultural heritage‐making processes conducted by stakeholders and interest groups within the UNESCO's intangible heritage paradigm. By tracking the road of Peru's cuisine to the Representative List of Intangible Cultural Heritage (the ICH List) and focusing on the turning points during food's shift from culinary to heritage status, the aim is to shed light on the political and economic forces that shape the meanings of food heritage. This article draws on recent research conducted at the intersection of globalisation with cultural and food politics in Peru. The empirical evidence, collected between 2011 and 2014 from individuals directly implicated in Peru's food heritage‐making, allows for a discussion of how, despite a discursive emphasis on cultural continuity and intercultural dialogue, food incursions into the UNESCO intangible cultural paradigm operate more as an elite‐driven competitive global concept than as a tool for cultural safeguarding and inclusive development. To do so, a description of the backgrounds that led to the rise of food heritage awareness in Peru and an account of the evolution of the candidature of Peruvian cuisine to the UNESCO's ICH List are provided. Cet article développe un regard critique sur les processus du patrimonialisation au sein du paradigme du patrimoine immatériel établi par l'UNESCO. En retraçant le parcours de la cuisine péruvienne vers la Liste Représentative du Patrimoine Culturel Immatériel, il met en lumière les forces politiques et économiques qui façonnent les significations multiples du patrimoine alimentaire. Les données empiriques qui servent de base à cet article ont été recueillies auprès d'individus directement impliqués dans la construction du patrimoine alimentaire péruvien. Elles permettent une discussion sur comment, en dépit d'un discours axé sur la continuité culturelle et le dialogue interculturel, les patrimoines alimentaires dans le cadre de l'UNESCO s'imposent plus comme des concepts de concurrence au niveau global que comme des outils de sauvegarde culturelle et de développement inclusif.
