After working with Channel 4 and Nigella Lawson on 'The Taste,' Jacqueline was invited to compete on a new cookery quiz show with Simon Rimmer. Jacqueline's partner didn't win any of the premium ingredients; the team were stuck with some seriously challenging options! Luckily, Jacqueline managed to turn things around in her cookery round, with a winning dessert that both judges were blown away by and agreed would be good on either of their menus. She won the show.
