If you have a good memory, then you will remember the iconic semi-finals of MasterChef Australia season 12. The true fans will surely recall how the pressure test challenge made every contestant nervous along with the audience. We witnessed the world premiere of Sepia chef Martin Benn’s toffee apple – the new lockdown dessert.

The chef described the dish being 10 times more difficult than the previous challenge on the show, the Forest Floor. We definitely agree with chef Martin as it was not the regular toffee apple recipe which is simply prepared with apples, sugar and water. This new exotic dessert is prepared from 59 ingredients and consists of 130 steps.

Down The Rabbit Hole

This is another incredible creation on the stage of MasterChef Australia. This dish is from the Back To Win episode when Reynold made a rabbit hole inspired by Alice In Wonderland. It is a gorgeous tableau of elements, and the most exciting part is when Reynold poured caramel onto the dish. It slowly melted and revealed the rabbit hole.
