Your writer was one of the lucky first few to ‘blend our own’ before the new facility opened for all to enjoy. MasterChef’s Matt Preston also guided us in a ‘how to’.

Bundaberg might be known for its world-famous rum, chilled-out beaches and of course, turtles, but head west and you’ll find yourself in the land of farm stays, fruit picking and a splash of wine tasting.
VISITORS can feel like intrepid explorers, as if they were discovering places no one else has ever seen on the islands of the Southern Great Barrier Reef.
Celeste Mitchell hits the road in her motorhome for a good ol’ fashioned driving holiday to sample what’s new in Bundaberg, and created this 48-hour itinerary so you too can explore its sweetest assets in a weekend.
Prepare to be amazed because Bundaberg is throwing off it's invisible cloak and revealing itself as one of Australia's great food bowls.
