Dessert Masters recap episode 6: Anna brings the drama with a shocking dish

Immunity is on the line!

It’s episode 6 of Dessert Masters 2023 and the contestants have a serious challenge on their hands as they’re presented with one of Amaury Guichon’s details creations.

It was an immunity challenge and Amaury rolled out his chocolate koala masterpiece and told the contestants that it took him 18 hours to construct. Luckily for them, they didn’t actually have to recreate the piece, they just had to make a “scrumdiddlyumptious” chocolate creation.

Kristin Tibballs is excited about the challenge, given her extensive experience working with chocolate and most of the other contestants seem quite confident.

Dessert Masters. Ten.

The cook

Kay-Lene Tan decided to make a dish with a “chocolate overload” while Gareth Whitton opted for a cake with three different chocolate elements.

Meanwhile, Reynold Poernomo was very nervous because the challenge was different from the other cooks he’d done in the competition. Upon visiting his bench, Amaury seemed concerned when Reynold told him he would “figure it out” as he went.

Meanwhile, Andy Bowdy was also nervous about the task, as his experience with chocolate is mostly “making it disappear while sitting on the couch”.

The Dishes

Kristin was first up and she presented a gorgeous-looking dish called Chocolate and Coffee Caviar.

Melissa Leong said that dish was a “dramatic and beautiful trick of the eye” and Amaury said he “really, really, really liked it”.

Dessert Masters. Ten.

Andy’s Sunday Rumday Happy Days dessert was a little less artistically presented, but Amaury said it was “so good” and “a party in your mouth”.

Jess Liemantara‘s dish was called Birds Nest and like the previous two, it scored rave reviews from the two judges.

Anna Polyviou presented Anna’s Mess 2.0, the serving of the dish involved Anna climbing on a ladder and smashing her creation in front of Amaury and Melissa, who were both wearing aprons and safety glasses.

They loved the “fun” of the dish but Amaury said the caramel was a “bit too sweet”.

Dessert Masters. Ten.

Kaylene served up a dish called Milo Dinosaur but it didn’t “wow” Melissa the way that she thought it would.
