The peer pressure worked \u2026 and thank goodness it did, because what followed was a masterclass in fearless reinvention that\u2019s got us all reconsidering what\u2019s possible after 50.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou know, I took myself way too seriously for far too long!,\u201d laughs Dustine, reflecting on her whirlwind TV experience. \u201cIt\u2019s so easy to get tangled up in the trials and tribulations of life that you forget the big picture. This was my chance to step back and remind myself that hey, life is short, it\u2019s for living, and it\u2019s truly what you make of it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Walking into that famous kitchen for the first time was a reality check that even three decades of high-stakes corporate life couldn\u2019t have prepared her for. \u201cHaving spent more than 30 years navigating boardroom battles and strategic deadlines, I thought I understood pressure. How wrong I was! The competition brought an entirely different kind of intensity. Something words can barely capture.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>The great egg disaster (and other TV moments)<\/strong><br \/>\n\u201cWhat viewers probably don\u2019t realise is how hilariously distracting it can be to cook in The Taste Master SA kitchen. Picture this. You\u2019re in what feels like an airplane hangar of a kitchen, film crew and social media mavens circling you like caffeinated bees, all while firing off questions mid-whisk. And oh, let\u2019s throw in the clock ticking like a time bomb. Stressful? That\u2019s an understatement.<br \/>\nBut wait \u2026 it gets better. This is TV after all, and what\u2019s TV without a little drama?<br \/>\n\u201cThe moment anything remotely chaotic happens, those cameras zoom in faster than you can say culinary catastrophe. Now imagine all of this, and then me, standing there like a deer in headlights, realising I forgot the eggs. Yes, eggs. A fundamental ingredient for my cake. And guess when this epiphany struck? Oh, just as the cake was already basking in the oven\u2019s glow. Cue the panic.<br \/>\n\u201cLet me tell you, if ever there was a moment I wished for the earth to swallow me whole, it was that one,\u201d Dustine recalls with the kind of theatrical flair that makes you wish you\u2019d been there to witness it. \u201cI could practically hear the clock mocking me as I stood, frozen, knowing full well there was absolutely no time to start over. A total disaster in capital letters!\u201d<br \/>\nBut here\u2019s the thing about Dustine, she turns disasters into dinner party stories. What could have been a moment of defeat became something else entirely &#8230; proof that sometimes the best adventures are the ones that go completely sideways.<br \/>\nHer elimination came during the bread-making challenge, a moment that proved as educational as it was disappointing. \u201cThis challenge pushed me to confront my weaknesses and reflect on my techniques. It was a humbling experience but also an invaluable one. Bread making, after all, is not just about precision; it\u2019s a dance with patience, creativity, and intuition.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The art of living beautifully<\/strong><br \/>\nFor Dustine, food isn\u2019t just about what\u2019s on the plate &#8211; it\u2019s about creating \u201can intricate tapestry where every detail weaves into the fabric of unforgettable moments.\u201d Her approach to cooking and styling reads like poetry. \u201cThe flavours on the plate are just the beginning. They are complemented by the visual poetry of the tablescape &#8211; a curated arrangement of textures, colours, and stories that set the mood even before the first bite.\u201d<br \/>\nThis isn\u2019t just Instagram-worthy food styling (though her daughters do roll their eyes at her \u201ccringe-worthy\u201d social media enthusiasm these days). It\u2019s a philosophy that treats every meal as a chance to create magic, whether you\u2019re \u201can accomplished chef or someone experimenting with pre-cut veggies on a weekday evening.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Life after the cameras<\/strong><br \/>\nMany weeks of working seven days a week have led to four casual employees. A catering business, Let Dustine Do It, that\u2019s exploded beyond all expectations. Not bad for someone who was worried about being \u201csignificantly older than all contestants\u201d just months ago.<br \/>\n\u201cIt feels like a dream come true, a validation of all the effort and dedication I\u2019ve invested,\u201d says Dustine, though she\u2019s refreshingly honest about the physical reality of starting over at 55. \u201cCooking is tough physical work, and let\u2019s be real, at 55, it\u2019s not exactly the easiest gig to take on. If I could turn back time, I would\u2019ve packed my bags and gone to a cookery school abroad.\u201d<br \/>\nBut regrets? Not really. Because here\u2019s what Dustine discovered. \u201cThe world needs all types of cooks and chefs and there is a place for everyone.\u201d Her Sunday braai tradition with her husband (the self-proclaimed braai master) and two daughters remains the heart of her week &#8211; a reminder that sometimes the simplest routines make the richest memories.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The courage to begin again<\/strong><br \/>\nWhen we ask about courage, Dustine\u2019s answer cuts straight to the heart of what makes her story so relatable to many. \u201cCourage, to me, is the quiet insistence that life\u2019s possibilities are greater than its limitations. It\u2019s the act of stepping forward when fear would rather hold you back &#8211; a determined leap into the unknown, where surprises, lessons, and triumphs await.\u201d<br \/>\nTo anyone \u201cteetering on the edge of chasing their passions or dreams, regardless of age or circumstance,\u201d her message is simple. \u201cJust go for it! Trust me, you might just end up surprising yourself. If I can do it at 55, what\u2019s stopping you?\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-22042\" src=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/pretoria\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2025\/06\/Dustine-Toblers-Chocolate-Fondant-Tart-300x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/pretoria\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2025\/06\/Dustine-Toblers-Chocolate-Fondant-Tart-300x400.jpg 300w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/pretoria\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2025\/06\/Dustine-Toblers-Chocolate-Fondant-Tart-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/pretoria\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2025\/06\/Dustine-Toblers-Chocolate-Fondant-Tart-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/pretoria\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2025\/06\/Dustine-Toblers-Chocolate-Fondant-Tart-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/pretoria\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2025\/06\/Dustine-Toblers-Chocolate-Fondant-Tart-315x420.jpg 315w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/pretoria\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2025\/06\/Dustine-Toblers-Chocolate-Fondant-Tart-696x928.jpg 696w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/pretoria\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2025\/06\/Dustine-Toblers-Chocolate-Fondant-Tart-1068x1424.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/pretoria\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2025\/06\/Dustine-Toblers-Chocolate-Fondant-Tart-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Dustine\u2019s chocolate fondant tart<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>\u201cThe middle will remain a bit wobbly\u201d- just how we like our desserts and our life adventures.<\/em><br \/>\n<strong>Serves: 6-8 people<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>You\u2019ll need:<\/strong><br \/>\nFor the pastry &#8211; 100g flour; 50g icing sugar; 50g diced butter; 1 egg yolk; 1 Tbsp cold water<br \/>\nFor the filling &#8211; 100g butter; 150g dark chocolate; 150g castor sugar; 75g flour; 6 eggs; fresh berries to serve<\/p>\n<p><strong>To make:<\/strong><br \/>\nRub butter into flour and sugar to make crumbs.
