Léo Salles Wins MasterChef Confeitaria 2025

Judges rewarded his precision in a demanding, three-dessert final.

Overview

  • Salles defeated Ramiro Bertassin in the Nov. 11 season finale of the Band pastry spinoff.
  • The decider required three desserts featuring mandatory techniques: viennoiserie, a transparent dome, and a chocolate decoration with movement.
  • Permanent judges Diego Lozano, Erick Jacquin and Helena Rizzo evaluated the dishes, with guest pâtissier Antonio Bachour assisting in the opening stage.
  • The champion receives R$300,000, and Salles celebrated on air, saying he cooked with his heart in every challenge.
  • His season was defined by creative risks—such as a scallop in a sweet course—that divided opinion but fueled strong support reflected across social media.
