Not what she planned: The panna cotta resembled more of a sauce than a wobbly delicacy
During the judging, Tiffany lamented: ‘Walking my plate up to the judges with my mum’s favourite dish, it’s just so heartbreaking that it hasn’t worked out’
One more wrote: ‘Stuff social distancing. Someone needs to give Tiffany a hug. And maybe, just maybe panna cotta puddles might take off’.
Yet another added: This is the part I wasn’t looking forward to though. I just don’t like when kids put a lot of pressure on themselves. Chin up Tiffany, I’m sure it still tastes great’.

‘I’m just hoping so much that all my flavours work and that everything tastes great,’ she said.
The judges were supportive – suggesting that she call it ‘oops I dropped the panna cotta!’ and said that although the dessert didn’t work out, it still tasted great.
Melissa told her: ‘I think that you should take the wins from this. And for me, the biggest win is your attitude.
‘Because things don’t always work out the way we want them to, and what you’ve shown us is that you can brush it off, rise above it and move on, and I think that’s to be extremely highly commended.’
