<p class="p1">Twelve-year-old Jasmine Stewart is America&#8217;s new MasterChef Junior champion. The Ron Clark Academy 6th grader took home the trophy and a $100,000 grand prize after she won the competition on Thursday night (May 18).</p>
<p class="p1">“This is the biggest moment of my entire life,” said Jasmine. “Who would ever think a little girl from Milton, Georgia, would ever win MasterChef Junior?”</p>
<p class="p1">At one point Jasmine was eliminated from the show, but she cooked her way back into the Top 6.</p>
<p class="p1">The season five winner said that she channeled her Jamaican roots to win the trophy. She also described herself as a “force to be reckoned with.”</p>
<p class="p1">Renowned pastry chef Christina Tosi praised the culinary prodigy as being “talented well beyond her years.”</p>
<p class="p1">In an interview with the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Jasmine&#8217;s mother, Deborah Stewart, said they plan to save the $100,000 for her college education.</p>
