THE BEST PASTRY. Which contestant was eliminated on the 100th Best Pastry Chef show? Find out his identity.
[Updated October 12, 2022 at 11:26 p.m.] After having chained a flop and finished among the last during Cyril's technical test, Karel was eliminated from the Best Pastry Chef , while Vanessa picked up the blue apron. Discover the summary of this new episode.
This week, The Best Pastry Chef was celebrating 100th show ! For the occasion, Cyril and Mercotte imagined tests each more formidable than the next, starting with the challenge of the chef, who asked the candidates to revisit one of the favorite desserts of the French: the chocolate mousse . To celebrate this anniversary, a jury of 100 people, made up of celebrities (Gad Elmaleh, Camille Cerf, Gilbert Montagné, etc.) former candidates but also viewers, first had to vote for the most beautiful visual. This is Vanessa who won the votes, but also fell in love with Cyril and Mercotte with his chocolate-cinnamon mousse and creamy caramelia . 'It's a great dessert, the mousse is remarkable,' assured the chef. Cléo, with its chocolate-black olive mousse, also won over the jury, as did Benjamin, who had bet on a milk chocolate mousse sublimated by bananas. Conversely, Karel, Nils and Manon, who all three went off topic with too little or even missed foam, suffered a flop.
In the second part of the show, Cyril Lignac took the reins of the technical test for the first time since the creation of the competition. The candidates had to reproduce a croque-hazelnut at the same time as the chef, following his instructions. This challenge put the nerves of the candidates to the test! It must be said that Cyril Lignac did not slow down the pace once and chained the technical preparations, between the macaron shell, the rock icing and the tempering of the chocolate. Justine came last in the race, behind Sébastien and Karel. Nils, who had already made this cake at home, topped the rankings, just ahead of Manon.
Finally, Philip Conticini asked the candidates to make their vision of the Best Pastry Chef. The presence of this great pastry chef disturbed the candidates who were numerous to chain the meatballs, like Manon, who wanted to represent the pink fridge of the Best Pastry Chef, but proposed something rough. 'You got us used to better,' Mercotte lamented. But others dazzled the jury, like Vanessa who was the crush of Philippe Conticini with his rag cake. 'It's the quintessence of cake design', even dropped Cyril Lignac. Unsurprisingly, Vanessa picked up the blue apron while Karel was eliminated.
Karel was eliminated from the Best Pastry Chef during the 100th show, broadcast this Wednesday, October 12. Discover the identity of the candidates who have already left the competition:
It will not have escaped your notice, Le Meilleur Pâtissier season 11 lasts even longer than the other years. In fact, after the main show, a one-hour programme, called La Cuisine Secrète, has been added and ends at 12:40 a.m. This novelty allows eliminated candidates to obtain a new chance to re-enter the competition. 'For the first time in the history of the competition, an incredible surprise will upset our pastry chefs (...) unprecedented duels which will take place out of sight in... The secret kitchen! For each of these duels, a draw will reveal the recipe that will have to be made, resulting from the most improbable challenges launched by Cyril Lignac during the 10 seasons of the competition', explains M6 .
The names of candidates of this season 11 of the Best Pastry Chef are now known. For this 2022 edition, they were 16 on the starting line, from all over France but also from Belgium. Here they are in pictures.
Like always, Cyril and Mercotte will be the members of the jury for this season 11 of the Best Pastry Chef. They will be supported by several chefs guests. And the least we can say is that M6 did very well this year: Philippe Conticini, Glenn Viel, Kevin Lacote, Thierry Marx, François Perret, Christelle Brua, Nina Métayer, Jeffrey Cagnes, Yann Couvreur or Pierre Hermé will be there!!
After having proven itself during a first season with amateurs and then with professionals, Marie Portolano will again be the host of this season 11 of the Best Pastry Chef. The host should still delight us with her humor and good humor.
For 10 years, you can imagine, a large number of candidates have already won the title of 'Best Pastry Chef'. For the most nostalgic among you, we have compiled the list of winners of the Best Pastry Chef since the first season.
