Nicole McKenzie from Muffin Break Warnambool Muffin Break cooking whiz Nicole McKenzie proved she is the best baker in the land after taking out the Muffin Break Bakers' Challenge for the second year in a row. The win cemented Nicole's status as a baking guru and she was ecstatic with the result, after setting out to prove she could take top spot again. The 26-year-old has been whipping-up a storm with Muffin Break for the last five years and knows what it takes to create a delicious, moist muffin. "A great baker needs to be very dedicated to the job and baking," Nicole said. "They also need to be very efficient with their time and well prepared." Nicole had a few top tips for baking muffins which are - don't over-mix your mix, always swell the muffins in the pan before putting them into the oven so they are perfectly domed, and make sure they are presented well so they look tasty and delicious to eat.
