MasterChef New Zealand re-invention By Megan
"Alright" said our master chef Miss Signal to get the attention of the most brilliant chefs in New Zealand. "This may be the hardest competition you have ever been in, but I know you will all do terribly well". After Miss Signal or should I say head chef had explain the rules we were off! Our Big challenge was to complete a kiwi design of a pavlova.
Zanobia was doing a wonderful job with her strawberry, kiwifruit and hokey pokey ice cream topping. Levi was doing a tremendous job with his goody goody gumdrops inside and for his WOW middle he had jaffas and whipped cream! Cassidy was also rocing it out with her crunchie bars on the outside of the middle. Lucky last is Riahie with his complementary L&P drink.
Hokey Pokey was the favourite topping in the pavlovas and finally our products were complete. After we had to choose our best competitive people and they would be our team in each team. Each team had to choose who's pavlova looked best and then vote to make their choice. There were four people and they all had their own creation but only one from each team will still be going on in the hope of becoming the new master chef
When we had all chosen our top pavlova we sent that person over to stand in the top spots.
Head chef Miss Signal then said "Congratulations you people have earned this spot but or the rest of you TRY HARDER! "Pack your bags and leave, we do not want to see anymore of you in this kitchen ever ever ever again". Unfortunately there was a lot of tears and emotional moments that made the audiences eyes water
Tune in for the next Master Chef New Zealand episode where we will announce the winner.
