Adriano Zumbo offloaded his Sydney property just weeks before his dessert business went into voluntary administration.
Last month the ‘pastry king’ pocked an impressive $1.7 million for the pad after it was sold to an anonymous bidder.
The personality picked up a clean profit from the sale, with The Daily Telegraph reporting that he had bought the Balmain property for just $675,000 back in 2003.

The sale was no doubt a sweet surprise for the chef, who reportedly hoped to sell the abode for $1.65million when it landed on the market.
The property sits on a 340sqm lot and features three bedrooms, one bathroom and a state-of-the-art kitchen.
The home is also located just 800 metres from Adriano’s flagship Balmain store, which he opened in 2007.
