Spring Turns Into Winter on Christmas-Themed ‘Masterchef Junior’

Christmas came early this April on Masterchef Junior. The young chefs were treated to indoor snow, and Shayne, from Texas, said he never thought the first time he’d see snow would be under a roof. Gordon Ramsey and Christina Tosi wore elf outfits and stood by a giant gingerbread house, which the young chefs were challenged with perfectly replicating. After being paired off into color-coded teams, Cydney and Peyton pulled out a win, making them safe from elimination.

After the challenge, a gingerbread man, whom the kids found to be both creepy and scary, walked out. He had a unique Christmas gift for the kids. With a hose, he sprayed them down with icing in front of the gingerbread house.

The gingerbread man was revealed to be guest judge Aarón Sánchez. Young chef Shayne was not too pleased with his projectile icing gift. But he found a way to savor the moment, saying, “I might as well just make the most of it and eat it all.”

‘MasterChef Junior’ airs Thursdays at 8 p.m. on Fox.
