Zumbo's Just Desserts is an Australian baking reality competition television program on the Seven Network. The program was developed by the creators of My Kitchen Rules.[1] The program is hosted by Adriano Zumbo and Rachel Khoo, with Gigi Falanga as assistant.[2] The series was won by Kate who received $100,000 prize money.[3]

Background

In January 2016, it was reported that the Seven Network was preparing to launch a then unnamed baking program, very similar to The Great Australian Bake Off.[4] The following month, the title of the program was revealed along with naming Zumbo as host.[5] Khoo was named as co-host in April 2016.[6][7] In June 2016, Falanga was announced as joining the program as assistant and timekeeper[2] and promos were released, advising the show would air after the 2016 Summer Olympics.[8]
