Chefs lay it all on the plate

MasterChef winner Chelsea Winter and "The Caker" Jordan Rondel, who runs a cake-making business, will be sharing their secrets at Opaki School tonight.

Along with the launch of their recipe books, both ladies will be telling their stories and all in a bid to raise money for the school.

Chelsea's book is called At My Table and Jordan's is The Caker, and the audience will have the opportunity to have the books personally signed on the night.

Co-ordinator Kit Cohr said Chelsea may share stories about being last year's MasterChef winner.

"Both will be telling some stories and sharing some tips about their recipes.

"I think both chefs are quite dynamic, young women who have some insight into the cooking scene and I think they will be interesting together," Mrs Cohr said.

She said last year's fundraiser, which involved the 2011 winner of MasterChef, Nadia Lim, was extremely successful.

Mrs Cohr is also going to be making three or four items from each recipe book for the audience to taste.

The event is sponsored by Paper Road Winery who will be providing guests with a glass of wine upon entry.

Hedleys Booksellers will be at the event for book sales and a portion of the sales will also go towards the school.

Tickets cost $15 and are available from Hedleys and the Opaki School office.
