Much emotion was experienced in the return “Bake Off” to Telefe when Damián Betular remembered with Agustina Fontenla , the young 31-year-old lawyer and semifinalist of the 2020 edition who died on June 3 due to complications derived from Covid.
“This is how the first program of ‘Bake Off Argentina’ ends, and we do not want to stop mentioning, and sending a big hug and a big kiss, to a person who has been very, very important in this tent,” began Paula Chaves. , before giving the floor to the jury. “Last year, the second season was held in this same tent and the great winner of our hearts was Agus Fontenla “, acknowledged the pastry chef, with a broken voice.
During the second edition, Damián Betular was much closer to the participants and, with Agustina in particular, had forged a relationship of camaraderie that crossed the screen with each broadcast.
“It is very difficult that today he is no longer among us, but I want Agus to be present in each of his dreams, and in each cake that they bring us here . So we send a huge kiss to his family, and it will never cease to be in our hearts, “he concluded excitedly.
Warming up: Osvaldo Gross’s comment to Betular in the run-up to “Bake Off”
Damian Betular is one of the historic Bake Off jurors and another Celebrity Masterchef celebrity . But this time, his colleague and former teacher, the famous pastry chef Osvaldo Gross, took aim at the Duahu Palace cook.
“He is a good pastry chef, but there are hundreds like him in Argentina. That is the bad thing about reality shows, that many times stars start to be created from the appearance on the open screen and there are many super talented people who do the work very anonymously and it costs them much more to make their way, start a business, succeed and others. From that point of view, it is very unfair for them, “he said in Clarín.
