Junior Masterchef Australia

The Top 20 arrived in the kitchen to find their chocolate dreams come true with piles of the sweet stuff everywhere. Gary introduced the first challenge: a taste test. The cheflings had to isolate the 20 ingredients found in the kitchen’s bountiful supplies of rocky road. Hannah and Tom came third, winning two points apiece for identifying 12 out of 20 ingredients. Chandler and Gracie placed joint second, guessing 13/20. First place and six points each was a six-way tie between Greta, Harry, Indigo, Lily, Miraede and Madi, who guessed 14/20 correctly. Being top of the leaderboard Lily chose raspberries and white chocolate as the core ingredients for the Invention Test, which was guest judged by master chocolate and pastry chef Kirsten Tibballs. The Top 20 produced some incredible desserts, with top honours going to Greta in third place, Jade in second and Chandler in first. Chandler’s win sent him to the top of the leaderboard, and those outside the Top 5 would have to cook-off to stay in the competition.
