However, this won't be Gonzalez's first television debut. He was a semifinalist on season 10 of Food Network's "Spring Baking Championship" and also competed on "Chopped Sweets."

Gonzalez first opened his business , Niveaux Pâtisserie, in 2024, just a few weeks before the opening of Masons Steakhouse just down the road, according to a report from the Patriot Ledger.

He and restaurant owner Jimmy Liang opened the pastry shop as a second counter at YoCha, which offers desserts and breads, the newspaper reported.
