Contestant Profile - Jake Bujayer

Masterchef Australia Contestant Jake Bujayer

More than 7000 applicants submitted their names to take part in the second season of Masterchef Australia. That list was cut down to just 50 to take part in the first week of the program, before being culled again to a top 24.

Masterchef Australia features 6 shows per week, with numerous challenges and two elimination rounds. A Masterclass session is held once a week.

Jake Bujayer is aged 29 and is a Cement Renderer from New South Wales. Jake suffered a series of minor mishaps in the first episode of Masterchef, taking a big chunk out of his thumb while chopping parsley. He then followed that up with slicing a tip off his finger while putting together a salt and pepper prawn dish.
