The feisty pair are planning to release their own line of cooking sauces after they battle husband and wife Carmine and Lauren for the $250,000 winner-take-all first prize.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!The siblings say it was judge Colin Fassnidge who gave them the idea after he told them he could see their “faces on a bottle”.
Tasia tells Yahoo that the hit Seven show has given the pair “a bit of a boost” and the ‘Spice Sisters” are excited to see what the future holds.
“All our efforts are going into that at the moment,’ she explains. “We’ve got a couple of recipes we’d like to share, so we’re just looking at the options, the packaging and logos.”
Initially, they will market one sauce, peanut satay, but the plan is to roll out several more soon after.
Tasia says winning the major prize would also bring their dream of opening a restaurant a lot closer.
“Since Gracia and I have been young, we’ve wanted to open up our own restaurant”.
“Bringing street food of Indonesia to Australia,” adds Gracia. “Winning the title of My Kitchen Rules and also the prize money would mean so much for our future.”
It’s been a rollercoaster ride for the show favourites. Renowned for the constant bickering and lively kitchen chatter, the friction almost derailed their chances early in the competition.
In group two’s instant restaurants, just a single point separated them from miners Alex Ebert and Gareth Cochran, meaning they narrowly avoided a second instant restaurant round.
“In that first instant restaurant we didn’t do well, we weren’t organised, we didn’t expect it was going to be that difficult,” says Tasia.
“That one little point, we didn’t want to be like that anymore. We didn’t want to cruise through. We wanted to be in the highest, not in the middle or the lowest. We didn’t want to get through after getting just one point more than another team.”
Meanwhile, beaten semi-finalist Jordan says he’s also using the show as a springboard to launch a career in food.
After he and his mum Anna were bundled out of the competition by Carmine and Lauren, he revealed plans to open a WA cafe.
“My mind and my heart are set on it,” he tells the Daily Telegraph.
“It’s always been my dream to have a little boutique cafe in WA, serving up food I love.”
