The first season was hosted by Ana Paula Padrão, who left the franchise following its conclusion. From the second season onwards, the show no longer featured a traditional host; her on-screen duties were instead jointly assumed by the judges. Actress Bruna Thedy, who had already replaced Padrão as narrator and voice-over artist in the twelfth season of MasterChef, continued in this role for this series.

The judging panel consists of Érick Jacquin, Helena Rizzo, and newcomer Diego Lozano, who makes his debut as the franchise's only pastry chef judge. Henrique Fogaça was also part of the original lineup but did not return for the second season due to family reasons and was not replaced.^[2]

Format

MasterChef Confeitaria is a spin-off from the main MasterChef Brasil series, featuring professional pastry chefs competing in a series of dessert-focused challenges.^[3] The winner receives a R$300.000 cash prize, a special cookware set from Royal Prestige, R$50.000 in products from Camicado, a kitchen from Brastemp's Eclipse Collection line, and the MasterChef Confeitaria trophy.^[4][5]
