MAGGI® is back with its six-episode reality show, Resipi Berani MAGGI® Season 2. From a pool of 2,000 women, 12 mentees made the cut to take on a series of culinary and entrepreneurial challenges for the grand champion title.
The reality show returns with its three prominent MAGGI® Mentors – Food Enthusiast and Brand Ambassador of MAGGI® CukupRasa, Datin Paduka Eina Azman; Director, Producer, Actress and Owner of The Dim Sum Place, Sheila Rusly; and Entrepreneur Icon and Owner of My Mum’s Bakery, Anne Idris – who will nurture the 12 mentees throughout the reality series in various Feedback Mentorship Sessions. For Season 2 which is hosted by Nana Mahazan (also the host for Season 1), the series will feature four celebrity guest judges – Stacy Anam, Betty Rahmad, Aisya J, and Chef Sherson Lian.
“We are excited to showcase the second season of the reality show to help further upskill and empower more women in terms of enhancing their business acumen, whilst providing them with a platform to both shine and achieve their dreams. Watch how the mentees step outside their comfort zones, undergo hurdles, build their self-confidence, and grow guided by MAGGI’s experienced Mentors and our new line-up of celebrity guest judges!”
“The MAGGI reality show aims to showcase and celebrate the mentees’ transformational journey in growing a food business to inspire women to take the leap of faith and embark on something new, ushering in positive change and improvement into their lives. We have witnessed discernible transformation in the mentees who won in the first season, and how they have truly inspired and impacted the lives of many others too,”
said Geetha Balakrishna, Business Executive Officer of MAGGI®, Nestlé (Malaysia) Berhad.
Besides receiving a seed capital of RM8,000, the grand winner of the Resipi Berani MAGGI® Season 2 will undergo an intensive 8-week mentorship programme with entrepreneur icon, Anne Idris, focusing on upscaling a food business, managing branding strategies and cost efficiencies.
The Second and Third place winners will receive a seed capital of RM5,000 each.

I am very honoured to be invited to attend the Resipi Berani MAGGI® Season 2 – Exclusive Watch Party last Wednesday and I must say I had fun watching Episode 1 with my fellow bloggers. I still remember the hall had a good laugh from the reactions of the mentors especially the witty Sheila Rusly and also some finalists who gave spontaneous and unexpected answers to the questions asked by the mentors. There was one saying that she loves menembak (shooting) and everyone in the watch party laughed so hard at her impetuous answer. Eventually she used to be a military reserve force. Bang! Bang!
Catch the episode for more excitement and see how these ladies learn to build their cooking hobby into a profitable business.
The upcoming Resipi Berani MAGGI® Season 2 reality show will be aired at 4.30 pm on TV3 every Friday for 6 weeks beginning 8 July, with a repeat at 11.30 am on Saturday. Viewers can also stream the episodes through MAGGI®’s YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/user/maggimalaysia) from 5.00 pm every Friday, 8 July onwards.
