For MasterChef Canada<\/em> season seven winner Chris Siu, opening his second cake shop in Vancouver, Canada, in August, was only one task on his to-do list.<\/p>\n

Daan Go Cake Lab, which Siu first opened on the other side of the country, in Scarborough, Ontario, in 2017, now has six locations in Canada.<\/p>\n

Siu\u2019s bakeries specialise in Asian-inspired cakes. One of the signatures is a chocolate cup filled with coffee jelly and caramelised pears, decorated like a mini ramen<\/span> bowl. There are also cakes featuring durian<\/span> mousse, pandan with mango compote and even one shaped like a roast pig, complete with red cherries for eyes.<\/div>\n

\u201cI think, flavourwise, the one thing that\u2019s true about dessert is that it\u2019s really hard to mess up something that\u2019s sweet,\u201d Siu says at his newest cake shop. \u201cBecause sugar is such a palatable flavour for people, you can do really weird twists on flavours, and usually they will be acceptable to their palates.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
