Since May, this season's crop of MasterChef hopefuls have been thrown a lot of curveballs.
Making a dozen immaculate donuts, elevating canned food, baking three pies in two hours and sculpting a croquembouche – basically a tower of cream puffs bound by caramel – in ninety minutes were just a handful of the heart-racing challenges.
On Monday night, a new winner of the hit Fox reality competition rose up from the sweat and tears in the kitchen: Courtney Lapresi, 25.
Sassy from the start, Lapresi, in her trademark, sky-high heels, proved you can be fashionable – and fierce – in the kitchen.
