The first creative challenge consisted of making a cake that has 15 pancakes and a filling: Ángela surprised with a rainbow cake that convinced Maru Botana, Damián Betular and Christophe Krywonis both for its decoration and its flavor; Camila demonstrated all her excellence by performing a toffee that drove all the jurors crazy; Nacho was valued for his cake that had pink pepper for its “original and disruptive” flavors; Marcos got a thumbs down for a grapefruit mousse that they felt lacked flavor, and Jorgelina didn’t get good news when they praised its flavors, but called her pancakes the texture of bubblegum.
Once the first part was over, it was then time for the technical challenge which consisted of replicating a tres leches cake, a pastry classic, especially from Central America. In addition, it had to be covered with an Italian meringue which added difficulty to the test. Gastón was one of those who complained the most about having to make the complex merengue again, but there was general annoyance due to the hour and a half they gave everyone to deliver the finished dish.
Although most did not know the cake, which has a sponge cake soaked in heavy cream, condensed milk and evaporated milk, Rodrigo de Paul’s ex-partner expressed complete happiness at having to reproduce that cake. “It’s my favorite,” he said. While there were no complications for the model, it was too difficult for others. Javier ended up with a merengue that he described as “harder than a brick” and Ángela and Gastón had a double challenge when the host inquired into their love lives and the sports journalist ended up in trouble when she asked him if he knew Cande’s dog. Molfese.
When it came time for the verdict, Nacho and Cami’s cakes ended up being chosen as the best of the day. “Good biscuits, good meringues,” Christophe praised them, before they chose the Luzu TV streamer as the number one spot in the challenge. However, for Nacho the victory was bittersweet when the jurors, in the process of defining who would return to the competition, chose the model and Ángela Leiva as the best of the day. In the end, the singer was very close to the goal and Camila received the good news.
“I couldn’t wait. I missed the tent a lot and I also missed my teammates a lot, those who are not here. So I am very happy to be here again,” she said, delighted while they applauded her. “I promise to give it my all and I swear that I will reach the final,” she said, hopeful about this new chance. Immediately afterwards, Wanda announced that the rest of the “returnees” will have a new opportunity to earn a place on the reality show.
