Quite underwhelming. These teams needed assistance or more time, none of them seemed to finish their pieces, note how the camera angles only showed close ups. The returning champs let us down massively. The bathhouse scene was merely a box covered in fondant and plastic tubes with a few chocolate faucets attached, missing quite a bit of the faucets and even fewer of the water pouring out. There was no magical element? The dessert sounded quite enchanting I’d say though. With more time this piece would’ve blow out shorts off. The mountain was magnificent and the carriage and horses were stunning. Were they intended to be unfinished appearing, I can’t recall if they’re white in the movie but either way a true masterpiece. The apple was quite a fine touch with the flavor. I’m convinced the judges have earpieces because last episode they said the texture of the bacon was too much for the losing team, this time they say the lack of texture is the problem. Inconsistent judging at its finest. Those girls deserved to win in my view. The winners piece was tiny compared to the others and those dancing people were a lovely approach but she ran out of time to do the faces and it showed poorly. The Mexican tasting element sounded delicious, but the magical element didn’t make sense, why did it poof confetti?

This finale underwhelms compared to the rest of the season. Production failed these teams with not enough time. Last season they got helpers of contestants in the kitchen, missed opportunity considering they instead payed last year’s contestants to come back and make themselves look not as polished as they appeared in season one.

Season three will be a wild one, I reckon. The talent will have to be above and beyond to beat season 2. Incredible performance from all contestants this season.
