From juggling motherhood to facing fierce competition on Drukkoker, Lizelle Solomon shows how embracing pressure can lead to incredible personal and professional transformation.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lizelle Solomon is many things – an excellent baker, a devoted mother of three, a skilled teacher, and an entrepreneur with a knack for creating delicious treats that truly tantalise the taste buds. Best known for her exquisite French macarons and cheesecakes, Lizelle\u2019s passion for baking shines through everything she makes.<\/p>\n

Originally from Klerksdorp in the North West, Lizelle now lives in Alberton. \u2018I always said I would never move to Johannesburg,\u2019 she admits, \u2018but in 1993, I relocated here.\u2019<\/p>\n

Before fully committing to baking, she spent 10 years working as a travel agent, a career that took her around the world. \u2018I can confidently say that this is where my taste developed for different types of food,\u2019 she shares.<\/p>\n

The pressure cooker experience<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Lizelle\u2019s baking journey has been filled with exciting challenges. She gained valuable TV experience on the cooking competition show Drukkoker, where she describes the atmosphere as \u2018a second home\u2019, even though the shooting days were long, running from 9am until 9pm.<\/p>\n

Like her entry into The Taste Master SA, Lizelle applied for Drukkoker at the last minute after seeing the competition on Facebook and was chosen. She recalls, \u2018I was up against four male chefs. The concept of the show was \u2018a new restaurant\u2019, so if you win, you get money to start your own restaurant. When I think back to my experience on the show, I could say that it was more intense than MasterChef.<\/p>\n

\u2018The producer told me, \u2018It\u2019s not only to make you win, it\u2019s to make you grow. Through the journey on the show, it\u2019s made me grow.<\/p>\n

\u2018The pressure was like being in a pressure cooker,\u2019 says Lizelle. \u2018The person who walked in there was not the same person who walked out.\u2019<\/p>\n

The experience also taught her that anything is possible. \u2018I never thought I would get onto the show because there were many entries and they only chose five chefs and five restaurant managers.\u2019<\/p>\n

Lizelle was inspired to enter because she loves the pressure of TV cooking shows. \u2018I found that business has been quiet the last two years and like many other businesses, the industry is struggling,\u2019 she explains. Her company, Le Petit Artisan Treats, specialises in high-end baking, which has been tough as fewer people host events these days. \u2018I had to reinvent myself,\u2019 she emphasises.<\/p>\n

Her reinvention<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Though baking has always been her first love, and she\u2019s been in the baking industry for 13 years, competing in a cooking show was a new challenge.<\/p>\n

\u2018If you put ingredients in front of me, I want to bake. So it was a challenge for me competing on the cooking show,\u2019 she says. But she took the risk and already sees the difference it has made, both personally and professionally.<\/p>\n

Her journey on Drukkoker came at a pivotal time. \u2018It was important for me to reinvent myself because of my divorce. Often when people get divorced you get a settlement but you still have to survive afterwards.\u2019<\/p>\n

One of her most overwhelming moments on the show was the first challenge, where contestants had just one hour to create a signature dish. Lizelle chose a spicy autumn trio of French macarons – pumpkin spice, bacon and maple syrup, and citrus flavoured. To add to the pressure, managers came around for a speed dating-style chat while she was preparing the dish.<\/p>\n

\u2018From the very beginning, it was hell\u2019s bells,\u2019 Lizelle shares. \u2018You\u2019re in a kitchen you\u2019ve never worked in before, you don\u2019t know where everything is, and the ingredients were surprises.\u2019 Despite this, she bonded well with the other competitors. \u2018One of the best things is walking away inspired by such great chefs,\u2019 she adds.<\/p>\n

Inspiring women through baking and entrepreneurship<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The experience gave Lizelle confidence not just in the kitchen but in life. \u2018Even in my day-to-day life as a single mother and entrepreneur, I know now \u2018I\u2019ve got this\u2019.\u2019<\/p>\n

\"\"

She is passionate about inspiring women. \u2018I see a lot of women who are brilliant in what they do but they don\u2019t see it in themselves, and that\u2019s one of the reasons I started my bakery, it\u2019s to inspire women to believe in themselves.\u2019<\/p>\n

Lizelle jokes that the pressure on Drukkoker was even higher than the pressures she faces in real life. \u2018The pressure on the show was a little more than my daily life but I enjoyed it thoroughly.\u2019 It made her realise her own capabilities and taught her to never give up. \u2018I\u2019ve reinvented myself in many aspects of life, especially in business.<\/p>\n

\u2018At 55, I\u2019m still learning,\u2019 she proudly says. \u2018When I walked into Drukkoker, I thought \u2018this is me\u2019, but I grew some more. I think in life we should never become stagnant.\u2019<\/p>\n

Her message is clear: \u2018Never stop living. I have always been someone who carries on despite any hardships or obstacles.\u2019<\/p>\n

Daily rituals for staying calm under pressure<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Lizelle\u2019s daily ritual to stay calm is simple but powerful. Every morning, she chooses five positives in her life to be grateful for. \u2018It\u2019s so easy to creep into a black hole of depression and doubt, but I am so grateful to my three children, my partner, and the support of my friends who keep me grounded,\u2019 she says.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Additionally, what Lizelle takes away most from her TV experience is the chance to make a difference. \u2018If there\u2019s one message I\u2019d like viewers to take away from my journey on Drukkoker, it\u2019s to never stop living. I see women my age going through menopause and just giving up on themselves and life. I wish for women to enjoy life more, take care of themselves, and find time to do the things they love. Don\u2019t stop enjoying life because life is so short.\u2019<\/p>\n

New ventures<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Looking ahead, Lizelle is excited about starting her private chef long-table events this spring and summer, and she\u2019s planning more events.<\/p>\n

She is also thrilled about a new business concept coming to life at Kamers vol Geskenke. Her journey is one of courage and a true inspiration for anyone who wants to follow their passion, no matter the challenges. Her ideal restaurant is a theatrical 5-star Michelin restaurant that only serves desserts.<\/p>\n
