For their first elimination challenge, the chefs are tasked with creating a showpiece based on a popular fairy tale.
To celebrate the Los Angeles Philharmonic, the chefs must create a cake experience in three movements to be served to the symphony members and patrons after their performance.
It all comes down to this -- the final three chefs will compete in a Top Chef version of the Prestigious Meilleurs Ouvriers de France Competition -- which is the World Series of Competitions in the pastry world. Only one can take the title of Top Chef: Just Desserts.
For the Elimination Challenge, the remaining 12 cheftestants create the ultimate “dessert-scape” spread for 'The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' star Lisa Vanderpump.
It’s the 40th anniversary of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, and to celebrate, the chefs will work as one team to create a Pure Imagination Room.
