Roxanna and Ana were the final team to finish, and the only ones to really struggle in this first round of Sugar Rush Season 2, with their buttercream curdling and two batches of burnt isomalt. They had managed to cut back on their sweetness, which made the eating experience pleasurable, and was complemented by their excellent design. Their cotton candy, upside-down ice-cream drip cupcake had all three judges applauding their balance of flavour. The third to finish were Ashton and Lio, a couple who met on Instagram. Their cupcakes not only looked brilliant, but the judges applauded the taste and the touch of theatre that the bakers had added with a squeezable bottle of bourbon sauce. They made black velvet cupcakes, based on the activated charcoal trend. The second team to finish were Shayla and Abbia, who had met on social media, but had never baked together before appearing on Sugar Rush. Zumbo also found their cupcakes overwhelmingly sweet. Nelson was thrilled with their choice of trend but the figs turned out to be too large to eat.
