The MasterChef Brasil competition has seen several contestants eliminated due to technical errors in their culinary preparations.

In one instance, contestant Taís Evaristo was eliminated after presenting a lobster dish that judges criticized for being overly greasy and lacking acidity. Chef Erick Jacquin described the preparation as “incomível” (inedible), citing excessive fat and technical flaws. Evaristo noted the mental pressure of the competition following her departure.

Later, contestant Gabriela was eliminated after a technical failure involving a Baked Alaska dessert. The judges noted that her attempt to adjust the texture resulted in a heavy consistency resembling cream rather than a structured dessert. Following her elimination, Chef Jacquin offered Gabriela an opportunity to work with his culinary team at his restaurants.
