"MasterChef Junior" Winner Alexander Weiss beat out all of the adult contestants on the first-ever MasterChef Cruise to walk away as the MasterChef Cruise Champion. Scroll down for photos!

The first-ever MaterChef Cruise just completed its inaugural voyage in the Carribbean Nov. 8-15. The cruise featured MC Judge Graham Elliot, MCJR winner Alexander Weiss, MC winners Christine Ha, Luca Manfe, Courtney Lapresi and fan favorite contestants Becky Reams and Bri Kozior.

The week was filled with fun and entertaining cooking demos and workshops from pasta making to macaroon demos and culminated with a LIVE Finale Challenge in front of a packed audience where contestants were put to the test by Judge Graham Elliot.

Starting with all six contestants, the live cruise elimination-style round of finale challenges included:

- Onion Chopping Competition (Bri eliminated)

- Don't Break the Yolk Competition where contestants had to present perfectly unbroken eggs (Christine eliminated)

- Perfectly Poached Egg Challenge (Courtney eliminated)

- Whip it Challenge where the final three had to whip cream and hold it over their heads (Luca eliminated). This was a particular favorite given the throw back to MCJR season 1 episode "Whip it like a man!"

The finale came down to Alexander (14 yrs) and Becky who had to create an impressive meal that would win over Judge Graham Elliot from a mystery box that included delicious lobster.

Alexander's elevated lobster hand roll beat out Becky's lobster soup and he took the title of the First-Ever MasterChef Cruise Winner!
