It’s clear that the MasterChef Australia 2024 cast is a close-knit group, and Snezana has revealed how their friendships blossomed when the cameras weren’t rolling.
During a post-elimination interview with Chattr, Snezana gushed about her time on MasterChef, calling it “one of the best experiences” she’s ever had. And, the Serbian cook listed the strong bonds she built with the other contestants as something she’s eternally grateful for.
“Every time I watched MasterChef previously, I always thought, ‘Oh my god, they’re all so super supportive and it’s a competition. How’s that possible?'” She laughed.
“But, I’m honestly overwhelmed. This range of 21 people, absolutely amazing people,” she said. “I’m 100% sure I will stay friends with all of them, and I will see them and we’ll do things together.”
The cast has a group chat which blows up when the show’s on
Though Snezana may be gone from our screens, she’s still part of the show in her own way. The financial executive revealed that the entire cast is in a group chat, which blows up with messages as they watch the show together each time it’s on.
“We even have a group chat that doesn’t stop ever, ever ever,” she laughed.
And who’s the most talkative in the chat?
“It’s definitely Gill! She’s fun, and she always comes up with funny pictures of all of us, like what would we think, and what would we say. Then she would cut out someone’s head, and put it on somewhere else. Funny things like that.”‘
The cast cooked together when they weren’t filming
Night after night, the MasterChef Australia 2024 cast whips up absolutely delicious dishes, but those creations are sent straight to the judges.
However, the contestants still get a chance to taste each other’s cooking, because they whip up meals together after filming for the day wraps.
“Not in the [MasterChef] kitchen,” Snezana explains. “Because everything happens so quick. You cook, cook, cook, cook, time’s up, and we stand at our benches, so we don’t really try each other’s food. It goes straight in for tasting while it’s still hot.”
“But we do share accommodation, obviously we are in the same accommodation, and after the day finishes, we all make dinners together,” she said.
Snezana said that she was blown away by Sumeet’s cooking back at the accommodation quarters.
“She is such a well-rounded cook. She can cook it all, from curries and stews to pastries, to sweets, and beautiful soup. She cooked proteins well and everything she cooks is a flavour bomb!”
“So many times I tried Sumeet’s food, and food from other contestants. There’s so many great things I had.”
