Erick Jacquin invites eliminated MasterChef Brasil contestant Gabriela to his restaurants

Gabriela was eliminated from MasterChef Brasil 2026 following a technical error during the preparation of a Baked Alaska. The contestant, an obstetrician, struggled with the consistency of her ice cream after attempting to increase creaminess by combining two different types of fat, resulting in a heavy texture that judges described as a cream rather than a structured dessert.

Despite her departure, chef Erick Jacquin offered Gabriela a professional opportunity. He presented her with his own brooch and invited her to spend time working with his culinary team in his restaurants. Gabriela expressed her intention to continue pursuing gastronomy while maintaining her medical career.
