Jimmy Wong is a Sydney-based food photographer, content creator and two-time MasterChef Australia contestant but his journey started far from the kitchen. Over a homemade chocolate hazelnut cake…
So we'll talk about all of that in detail in a minute, but we'll start with our sweet treat.
So when I asked you about what your favorite flavor is, you said hazelnut and chocolate.
So from that, made that little creation around that.
It's a milk chocolate, like Gianduja, like a hazelnut chocolate with hazelnut bisqui- biscuit in the middle and, um, and a little bit of a chocolate crust around it.
[laughs]
Like, I mean, when you asked me the question beforehand, you know, what w- what my two flavors were were actually a fudgy chocolate and hazelnut.
There's a story behind that, but what I see in front of me is this beautiful creation that Anya's made, and I can't wait to dig into this.
Let's dig into this, and then you can tell me why you chose those flavors.
It is, like, the most incredible dessert that you're gonna be able to get in, like, you know, a hatted restaurant.
Well, the reason why I chose the actual flavors of hazelnut and chocolate, it starts off with a number.
It goes from the actual, um, uh, flavors itself, which is the fudgy chocolate, but also hazelnut because of some of the farmers that I've met.
But in my life story, one of the things that I [laughs] often do, which is a very guilty pleasure, is to sit on a couch with a block of unnamed, um, chocolate bar, [laughs] which is chocolate and hazelnut, and polish off the whole thing.
