Dear judges,
now I'm going to ask you to tell me
which of the teams should become
the third finalist
of Sugar Rush: The Baking Point.
The team that I think should stay is...
Andrés and Nadia.
-We have the first vote.
-I knew Maricú would love it.
FRIENDS
It's just that one cake
stood out more than the other
and I think the third team
that should be a finalist is...
I can't stop shaking,
my stomach is turning, but I feel hungry.
FRIENDS
What?
Andrés and Nadia.
-Wow, my friend.
-No.
-I really did not see it coming.
-Yes.
It is decided then.
Andrés and Nadia,
you are the third finalists
of Sugar Rush: The Baking Point.
We made it. We're covered in flour
and chocolate, but we're in the finale.
This means we have to say goodbye
to one of the funniest teams.
Thank you both, really, for showing us
that being different from everyone else
is something
that we should all be proud of, really.
We applaud you.
-Thanks.
-Thanks.
ELIMINATED
I leave with a happy heart.
There's something I've always wished for
more than happiness,
and that is wholeness.
And I feel whole.
I feel happy. I feel proud of myself.
I feel joyful.
I feel that I made it.
We made it.
TIME FOR THE FINALE
Look at each other
because you are, deservedly so,
the finalists
of Sugar Rush: The Baking Point.
This is the grand finale of Season 2
SUGAR RUSH: THE BAKING POINT
of Sugar Rush: The Baking Point.
Each one of the three finalist teams
will bake within the time they saved,
earned, and accumulated
during the previous episodes.
That trophy has to be ours!
It collapsed. I can't believe it.
Why am I having so much trouble?
You've spent too long on that.
They'll face each other
during the cupcakes or confections round,
which will be decisive.
The top two teams
move on to the cake round.
ROUND 2
Will it fall?
-Oh, Nadia.
-Relax.
I can't relax.
There's a million pesos, remember?
The team that fails will be eliminated
just minutes away from the win.
I won't leave today.
If I do, it'll be with my million.
-Use your hand.
-No, it sticks to my hand.
Therefore, they'll have to do their best
in today's episode, "Life Celebrations."
THEME
LIFE CELEBRATIONS
Gris and Luis are ready,
but because the occasion warrants it,
we'll have, for the first time
in Sugar Rush: The Baking Point, not one
but two guest judges.
Ari Gameplays and Juan Guarnizo,
whose love for video games...
STREAMERS AND INFLUENCERS
...brought them to the altar to continue
unblocking missions and climbing levels.
The end of the sweetest
and most exciting race
is about to start.
Follow me.
Friends. What are you doing there,
Andrés, Nadia?
A cleansing ritual.
-Why?
-Because there are some odd vibes.
-Lots of defeats.
-Of course.
Let's remove all the sorcery
and evil around
because we have to win.
-Sandra, Efraín.
-Hello, Capi.
You're powered by love.
-That's right.
-By love.
We're in the finale.
Elio, César, you're powered by family.
-All in!
-Very good.
I think all the good vibes
from Mom, Dad, our siblings
and Chilpancingo will be here.
SIBLINGS
Friends, I am so glad to see you here.
Let me hug you. Boy, I will miss you.
-Ari, Juan, thanks for being here, really.
-Bravo!
I'm a big fan of both.
I always try to lurk
when they do live streams.
-How are you?
-We are happy, excited.
We want to eat, taste, see how they do it.
They're confident.
You know what?
There's love in this episode.
And speaking of love, you...
That's why we invited you.
How long ago did you get married?
Oh... four years.
-Good, you passed the test.
-I almost left.
There'll be so much love in this episode
that, at the end, you'll want
to renew your vows, you'll see.
-So be it.
-They'll renew their vows, so...
We have to work hard
to give them what they want.
Bakers, you know, you had 20 hours
in total, in all episodes.
Now you'll cook
with what you managed to accumulate.
Sandra and Efraín have 5 hours,
TIME SAVED
That's great.
With almost one hour less
we have the Renterías
with 4 hours, 46 minutes, and 24 seconds.
TIME SAVED
-Yes, Capi.
-And a bit further behind...
because they are rising
from the ashes, like a phoenix,
Andrés and Nadia with 4 hours,
TIME SAVED
We're the last ones,
but we'll do this perfectly.
Just to add a bit of extra stress,
one team will be eliminated
in this first round
and will not have the chance
to compete for the million pesos
and this gorgeous trophy, look at it!
We will win that trophy.
But what are you making?
My dear Gris will tell us.
We have all been marked
by eshpeshial events
that we have turned
into a big celebration.
This challenge is about creating
a cupcake or a sweet confection
inspired by that celebration
that has left a mark on your lives.
We have the ideal celebration of life.
The three teams
will start cooking at the same time,
but each one will have on their clock
the time they have accumulated, okay?
-Yes.
-Okay, bakers!
Grab your mixers! Your time starts now!
ROUND 1 - CUPCAKES OR CONFECTIONS
This is a moment to draw on that strength
that we have as siblings,
that we learned as children.
I love you, and I know we'll win.
-Something about Naomi's first year.
-Your daughter.
The theme was princesses.
Our sponge cake can be a Swiss roll,
like my mom used to make,
and that way, we can merge our ideas.
We can add a balloon
that looks like a carriage.
We'll add the wheels here
and it can melt with a crème anglaise.
-We'll add a frame here and a flower.
-Yes.
We'll use those vintage colors
that Mom loves.
We'll make a cupcake and remember
my mom's 50th birthday party.
-What she likes. Something traditional.
-Don't cry.
-Okay, cry.
-Otherwise, I'll cry more.
I'm such a crybaby too.
Seeing them crying
makes me want to cry too.
-We'll end up swollen from so much crying.
-Yes, for sure.
We're dedicating this dessert to Morgan
because we'll represent
the life we gave him,
and he gave us life when he was born.
I remember an anecdote
when we started working.
We started a piggy bank,
and since I was already pregnant, we said,
"This piggy bank is for buying diapers,
and buying other things."
And before he was born,
we began working at the bakery.
We obviously needed supplies,
many things, cutters, and stuff.
And we decided to...
Smash open the piggy bank.
It had 8000 pesos, just imagine...
And we said, "Let's invest it
and we know we'll get more money
and we'll do things the proper way
for him."
We'll make my son's favorite cake,
which is guava.
It's important to get you in the mood
to tell you about the teams
that are competing now.
Gris, let's start with Sandra and Efraín,
who are husband and wife.
-Husband and wife. They get along so well...
-And their kid is their motivation.
-They have the most time, right?
-Yes.
-We have the most time, but...
-We can't be overconfident.
Speaking of marriage,
how is the marriage of two superstars
of the streaming universe?
I think any streamer likes
that their partner
understands their work so well.
Because whether you like it or not,
we spend hours
at a computer, and it can extend
to more than eight hours.
In the evening, we interact,
we have dinner,
we always watch a movie or a series.
-You don't play, do you?
-Yes, sometimes.
Sometimes we have a great game,
and we want to spend some time on it.
-And we share it.
-Yes.
Nadia, I want to represent
this sponge cake
because I don't remember much
and I want to remember
what Mom used to make for me.
I'll make a dessert
that's a combination of classic flavors,
such as natural strawberries,
jam, whipped cream...
Hold on, let me...
-I don't know what this had...
-Did you put it there directly?
Did you put it there directly?
-You burned it.
-Oh no.
Dear Lord. What are we going to do?
Get it out. Grab another bowl.
-A glass one. There are glass ones, right?
-Grab another one.
The chocolate burned.
This is what can lead to errors
that, in the long run, cost them time
and sometimes affect their outcome.
No.
-That one is burned.
-Wait.
No, grab a new one.
-Give me the chocolate.
-God.
You make me nervous.
They could use the microwave. It's faster.
-Right.
-Put it in the microwave.
We'll be in trouble if we waste more time.
Faster. Hurry up.
César, all the white.
We'll make a cupcake
with all the flavors my mom likes
like orange, a white chocolate cream,
and an almond crumble.
I like that it turned out
how we wanted it, very creamy.
They always work on the edge.
-Push it.
-I can't.
My God, it's moving a lot.
There.
César is an artist. He is the sculptor.
And Elio is like the engine.
They're ready right away.
Cake is in the oven.
We'll make a confection
that represents our son's cell,
which is very important to us
because our love for him
is basically what motivates us.
I'll make isomalt
to make some lovely domes.
-Careful. Camera.
-Be very careful. Don't burn yourself.
You do this trick once in a lifetime,
otherwise, it breaks.
-Efraín put a layer of plastic wrap.
-Plastic.
-He pressed with a ring, and the heat...
-It rises.
...produces a caramel dome.
-But it's risky because it's fragile.
-Yes.
I need it to not break.
Oh no, it broke!
-The isomalt.
-The isomalt.
It can't be possible!
Temperature is not helping,
and I also realize that the plastic wrap
isn't helping either.
-Let it cool down.
-I did it too quickly because of stress.
They have this spectacular talent
for doing detailed things.
Wow!
Efraín made some poison bottles
and a crystal ball.
-And a crow up there.
-That's the witch.
They have really surprised us.
I won't leave today.
If I do, it'll be with my million.
And that gorgeous trophy.
-Did you see the trophy?
-Wow.
I haven't taken my eyes off it.
That trophy has to be ours!
Can you imagine it at the bakery?
-Yes, of course.
-And a million pesos at stake.
This smells like home.
Is it melting?
Nadia.
-Yes, but I'll do it here with water.
-No.
-It'll burn.
-No, in a double boiler.
Honey, put it in the microwave
because we don't have time.
In a double boiler.
Don't make it harder.
It's faster in the microwave.
Let's say you two were in that situation.
Who would make most decisions?
-I don't know.
-I think it's clear.
That answers everything.
-Is it working?
-Yes, it's melting.
It's easier.
Andrés and Nadia
sometimes surprise us, and we say,
"There's nothing better
than what they've made."
But sometimes their flavors
have missed the mark.
The textures are fine,
but it's extremely sweet for my taste.
They must feel pressure
coming from the playoff.
-Yes.
-Today I'll give it my all, Nadia.
Here we go again.
Hey, Efraín looks really stressed out,
trying to use that technique with isomalt.
It's really difficult.
It collapsed. I can't believe it.
Why am I having so many problems?
-It's the isomalt again.
-Finalists!
-The first half an hour has gone by.
-Oh God.
Do your best, because one team
won't participate in the second round.
-My pressure will drop.
-Half an hour! César!
Nadia, I'll make the crème anglaise
to break the dome of our confection.
Would you like to go to the front row?
-Let's go.
-Follow me.
Good. It comes off a bit, doesn't it?
Elio and César.
-Hello.
-Are those pictures? Frames?
Yes. I'm making some frames
because this cupcake is inspired by
my mom's 50th birthday.
What happened that day?
She had a very nice reunion
with her siblings.
Plus, my mom had never had a party,
so that day, we went all out.
-Is it only the two of you?
-No, we're nine siblings.
Nine siblings.
-Oh my God.
-Ari used to want several children.
-I always wanted six.
-We're at three now.
-We may negotiate down to two.
-No. Three is good.
It's ready.
Gorgeous.
-Is it sticking? Need more wrap?
-No.
-Hello, Nadia, Andrés.
-Andrés and Nadia.
The station with the most tension.
You have less time, but you look good.
Nadia will chat with you, okay?
Because I don't have time.
Our confection is inspired
by my daughter's first birthday.
Because it's been
the biggest celebration she's had.
I feel guilty.
The flavors represent something
my mom used to make for me.
I think she is happy
and she's watching the oven
so that they turn out good.
-Sandra, Efraín.
-Hi, Sandra. Hi, Efraín.
Stop what you're doing.
You have tons of time.
Does your son follow
Juan and Ari's content?
-Not my son, but my husband does.
-Yes.
...Great!
-Amazing!
I do watch you both, honestly.
Wow, I can't believe it.
I never imagined I'd meet them in person.
I was told that Efraín
does the "Papure" too. What's that?
Would you like to do the "Papure"
along with Ari?
-Not right now.
-Do the dance.
Once we win, we'll dance the "Papure."
I remember when Mom
used to make this extreme move.
The extreme move. The death move.
Juan, which celebration
deserves a cake in your life?
-As a child, I always watched cartoons.
-Sure.
So, my birthdays were about
my favorite cartoon that year.
It was progressive. With each cake
you could figure out my age.
Okay.
Making the first cake
for my daughter's first birthday
was an incredibly exciting moment.
I made a moving cake
and it was a whole experience for her.
-Really?
-My baby was thrilled.
I hope she remembers,
but I don't think she will.
I'll also reflect
a fifteenth birthday celebration
that I never had.
May I?
Sure, it matches the theme, right?
I always wanted a quinceañera party.
-Did you have a fifteenth birthday party?
-Yes, I did.
It was something small with my friends,
which were few back then.
They are still few.
-Few, but good ones.
-Yes.
His face looks stressed out.
He's failed several times.
-His face changed.
-He can't do it.
-Unbelievable.
-He has one.
I told you to improvise.
That has taken you too long.
I have a lot to do
to finish the confection,
and Efraín is taking way too long.
I would like him to just leave it.
I need to unmold these.
-Do you have time?
-No.
ROUND 1
The first one is out.
They're ready, sis.
Yay!
They're gorgeous, sis.
Look, and they're very fluffy.
-Hurry, Nadia.
-I'm on it.
You can start grabbing things from here.
We have to unmold the spheres
that are still in the freezer.
-Do you want to put them here and flip it?
-I think so.
Those who have more time
always end up in trouble
because they're ambitious.
-They want to use complex techniques.
-Yes.
We're going for plan B.
They're almost done.
-My hand is shaking.
-Hurry. No, use your hand.
No, because it sticks
to my hand. It's wet.
Sorry, but I don't want
flowers stuck to my fingers,
so I'll use tweezers.
-Efraín is using a different technique.
-Yes, he switched.
It's a half-sphere silicon mold,
and he's straining the sugar
over the dome.
If it works out,
it will really be worth it.
-How is it going?
-I'm just missing one.
-Look at this beauty.
-It has Mom's flavor.
Bring them there.
The ones with less time
are about to finish.
Those who waste less time.
They're plating.
-It's nerve-racking.
-Yes.
One is missing a wheel.
-Oh, Nadia!
-His smile disappeared.
Let's press that button, as it could be
the last one or the next-to-last one.
We don't know what could happen.
-Okay.
-There they go.
-They're about to press.
-It's okay, love.
The first button!
The first button of the finale, guys!
Bravo!
Andrés and Nadia
delivered their confection.
TIME SAVED
It doesn't even look the same color,
honey, and they'll notice.
Let's give up on that.
Careful. Relax.
I can't relax.
There's a million pesos, remember?
It all looks delicious. I want to get up.
-Let's go.
-Can we?
-Let's go.
-Okay.
You're not listening.
That color will look bad.
Present them like that, then.
Oh God.
I can't let time k*ll us,
so, we'll have to give that up.
Shall we press?
-Press it!
-Oh my God.
Hurry.
TIME SAVED
You spent an hour on it,
but you wouldn't listen.
Andrés, Nadia.
The first ones to finish.
Elio and César are still working.
Quickly. Just add yellow ones.
This confection is inspired by his mom
and by my daughter's first birthday.
-The theme was princesses.
-I always wanted to be a quinceañera.
So, the little crown also applies.
And now you'll see the reveal.
-Wow!
-It's like a melting sphere.
I wasn't expecting this.
This is too elegant. I will dress
for the occasion.
What a moment. Let's taste it.
The Swiss roll has a vanilla sponge cake.
It has a crème anglaise filling
with a touch of eggnog.
It has strawberry jam
and fresh strawberries.
I liked it. It's good.
And I love strawberries, so you nailed it.
Thanks.
After two or three bites,
I need a bottle of water.
-It seems a bit... a bit too sweet.
-Yes.
We decided to represent our son's birth.
The plan was to make it look like a cell.
It is a vanilla
and tres leches sponge cake,
guava jelly,
guava cream, and a crumble.
I went straight to the conception part.
Officially, all three finalists
finished the first round.
How exciting.
TIME SAVED
You took me
to a Colombian dessert called merengón.
It has a very similar flavor
and I love it.
Nothing bad to say.
All the individual flavors were delicious.
And when you put them together...
a beautiful conception.
-Thanks a lot.
-Thank you, Gris.
Elio, César, who together are...
-The Rentería siblings!
-The Rentería siblings!
Tell us what motivated this design.
Trying to find a celebration
that has left a mark on our lives
we thought about
my mom's fiftieth birthday.
In this cupcake
you'll find flavors that represent home.
We made an orange sponge cake,
caramel, a pear compote,
and a white chocolate cream.
The bread is very soft,
the cream is very soft,
and the filling is very soft.
Therefore, the crunchy touch was great.
I loved the pear compote.
I think it was probably too much cream
for my taste.
And I feel I have tasted
much better desserts from you.
The judges differ in their preferences,
so we don't know what can happen.
Dear bakers,
the judges' favorite team,
which has secured its spot
in the second round
to keep competing for the million pesos
and the championship
of Sugar Rush: The Baking Point is...
I feel confident,
but only the judges can decide here.
May the best one win, girls.
-Sandra and Efraín.
-No way!
-Congratulations.
-We did it, my love.
We're in the finale.
-We're the first finalists.
-It feels very nice.
Elio, César.
Andrés, Nadia.
Unfortunately,
we have to say goodbye to one team.
-No, they won't get rid of us.
-Do you think the cleansing will work?
Sure.
And that team is...
My feet and my legs are tingling...
-So many sensations.
-It's nerve-racking.
Nadia and Andrés.
Your dessert was a bit too sweet,
and that's why we must give you
a bitter farewell. Thank you very much.
My daughter will probably be really happy
to see that I made it to the finale.
Proud, of course.
My mom, my family, everyone.
I love you.
Go win!
-Thank you.
-Bye.
Personally, I think this competition
made me very, very strong.
I know that my family
really loves and appreciates me,
and they'll be proud of me
and what I've achieved.
Elio, César, Sandra, Efraín.
You are the best teams
of Season Two
of Sugar Rush: The Baking Point.
We did it!
We went through.
Unfortunately, only one team
can take home this trophy.
Ari and Juan, please come here
to explain round two,
in which you, bakers, will have to make
the best cake
you have ever made in your lives.
I am very nervous.
I don't know what will happen.
Many love stories,
and even soap opera endings,
have a great wedding moment.
And that is why, to finish this season
and this competition on a high note,
you'll have to make the most impressive
and spectacular wedding cake
to commemorate our love once more.
No way!
As an extra touch,
our wedding cake had five tiers,
so yours should be the same.
The minimum size should be one meter ten,
and there should be a surprise element
when you slice it,
something related to us,
that leaves us open-mouthed.
-What?
-Are they insane or what?
We won't finish in three hours.
-There's something else.
-Great, Juan, really.
It should have a video game detail.
They are making it very hard.
It had to be the finale.
Let's talk about time.
Sandra and Efraín, with 4 hours,
TIME SAVED
And 57 minutes later,
Elio and César will start
with 3 hours, 42 minutes,
and 57 seconds.
TIME SAVED
Sandra, Efraín.
For one million pesos,
grab your mixers! Your time starts now!
ROUND 2
CAKES
How about we make an inverted cake?
-The main tier would be in the middle.
-Yes.
Then it will go down gradually.
A wedding cake should always be elegant.
It'll be elegant inside too,
with a poppy seed sponge cake,
Italian meringue, cream cheese,
and a pistachio brittle.
I'll start making wafer flowers.
Yes, love.
Meanwhile, I'll put the cakes in.
Fifty-seven minutes
watching your rivals while they work.
I'd get stressed out.
In fact, I'd get moody.
The wait is too much.
Making a wedding cake
in three hours... oh, no.
And a meter ten.
Now, there's an additional device
that both teams have,
which are those ladders back there
that will be used.
-We'll have fun watching them struggle.
-I can't wait to see.
It's exasperating to see this.
When they finish baking,
we'll just be starting our design.
It's out of the oven.
I'd like to know, also to be inspired,
how you met.
-They should tell us, right, Gris? Please.
-Yes, tell us.
I once posted a drawing,
Ari liked it and she followed me.
I was the one who became intense.
Then when we were in touch on WhatsApp,
I investigated his Facebook
and his family.
Really?
And when you met her,
were you put off by her elf ears or...?
No, it's part of the charm.
Okay.
I need that prize for my gamer room,
and being crowned by Ari would be epic.
Actually, if we win,
we'll use that money to open a school
because we're starting to teach.
If there's any left,
maybe a van or something.
That'd be cool.
I'm making pistachio caramel
that we'll use inside our cake
as a filling or complement.
Why didn't we save more time?
Because we're always at the limit.
-So, how long did you date before...?
-Three years.
Then we got married.
We've been married for four years.
Wait, don't skip any steps.
The marriage proposal.
-Oh, it was sweet, yes.
-It was in Cancún.
We had an event there.
A meal on the balcony.
I got down on one knee.
Yes!
Hey, when are you going to propose?
Babe, why are you asking me that now?
-We're very busy.
-It's just that...
We're making wedding cakes,
and I don't see a ring on my finger.
I thought I could take advantage of this.
-There was never a cake, right?
-There was never a wedding cake.
Oh well.
I have a trauma regarding my wedding cake.
-Why?
-Why?
I said, "I'll have a rainbow cake."
The surprise was supposed to be
that when I cut it,
the slices would be different colors.
I cut it, I saw it... A single color.
-No! it was gray.
-No!
-Gray.
-Gray, like your name, Gris.
It was gray. So I promised myself
that when we renew our vows,
we need a rainbow cake, and I'll make it.
-Yes!
-Myself.
ROUND 2
It's burning.
Don't move it, you know?
-It's burned.
-Oh no.
-It's not their day for...
-For caramels.
-...for caramels.
-No, it's burning.
Okay.
It's like the one for flan,
and this is the syrup for the meringue.
This step is very simple,
but I'm so nervous that I don't know
what's happening to me.
Elio and César will be coming shortly.
Did they make use of their time?
Yes, they baked.
-Let me check the pastries.
-They'll take something out of the oven.
Here is one.
Our friends Efraín and Sandra
have actually shown...
-...that they're great rivals.
-They're very good.
It won't be easy.
The Renterías will start in a few minutes.
-They have agreed on what they'll make.
-They're just waiting.
We cannot be overconfident now.
Can you make up for lost time?
-We'll give it our all.
-Yes!
It's almost impossible, but we'll do it.
Three, two, one.
Grab your mixers!
Your time starts now
for one million pesos!
We'll put the gift here.
A heart here.
This is to show the stages
that couples go through.
For this cake,
we'll make a vanilla sponge cake,
a strawberry compote, and a cheesecake.
We'll use flowers and textures.
Twigs to cover the base.
STRAWBERRY MOUSSE
-That's it.
-Okay.
The Renterías have started!
-No. We have to hurry up.
-Let's see...
Let's see the meringue. It's good.
We had lots of time to get ahead,
but we know they can defeat us.
Cover this with chocolate in ten minutes.
-Okay?
-Yes.
I'll use both mixers to finish this.
This sweet pursuit for the million pesos
has officially begun.
I like what Elio and César are using,
which are marshmallows.
Their ingredients are promising.
I'm still making the cheesecake.
I'm doing it as fast as I can.
We have very little time.
We're very concerned
that it won't be enough.
I will add just the first layer
so that it dries.
This should be enough.
I'll turn up the heat a bit.
No, that one is done.
I'll cover it with wafer.
And if I add a sponge cake
and paint it red?
-And...
-For the reveal, we'll add their initials.
The surprise will be
to put letters inside the cake
so, when the judges and guests slice it,
they can find their initials inside.
This will be ready in ten minutes.
Do you want a surprise when you slice it?
-And to be related to video games.
-Yes.
-We almost asked for pyrotechnics.
-Almost.
I'll take the sponge cakes out.
Gosh, they're working fast
and they could catch up.
Did she spend an hour and a half
making flowers?
Exactly an hour and a half.
-That won't even cover the top.
-No.
I'm hurrying as much as possible,
because the cake is big. I don't know
if we can cover it with flowers.
I think you should put it like this,
and we'll cut it like this.
They have not progressed as much,
but the fact that we see
a taller structure is impressive.
Yes.
In fact, César has now climbed the ladder.
Do we add the reveal in this one
or the other one?
There, or it'll be too tall
and they won't be able to cut it.
I can go faster with this one,
and we'll add details to the other one.
-Okay.
-Oh my God.
Relax. Everything will be fine.
-Oh my God.
-They're strong.
-They're doing well.
-Will they have flowers?
I don't think they have any.
César and Elio are very good,
and of course, they make us nervous
because we're competing with people
whose work is as good as ours.
We're even,
and it will all be decided here.
-I think they're at the same level.
-The threat is real.
This one will have
tons of sugar around it.
-Which one?
-This one.
Shall I get started?
Yes. Make some ganache or we'll run out.
-Okay.
-We can see contrasts now.
Look at Efraín's...
a very little and pretty cake.
And here, he's making a huge cake.
Just like our wedding cake
with five tiers.
It had figures of us on top.
It had my headphones with little ears.
-Juan was wearing a glove.
-A huge glove.
-How about your wedding cake?
-I don't remember the moment we cut it.
-You're kidding!
-No!
After the wedding,
we were like, "Did we cut the cake?"
We saw the photos,
and my wife is karate-chopping it.
-You were very happy.
-It must have been great.
We had a great time, actually.
-I added the cream.
-The ganache... It's this one.
I did it so it won't drip.
-Do you have the cream?
-It's in the oven.
-Did you use the exact amount?
-Yes.
-Shall I put it in the microwave?
-No.
-No?
-Remember, it ruins it.
I'll put it in for a second.
Oh God.
Right now, I'm seeing the Renterías
have a certain vibe that's...
not too happy.
Assemble it and I'll cover it here.
Hold on because it's not even.
-Where?
-This side is uneven.
This side too, a little bit.
And here they're like obsessive.
I think it is pretty even.
Any little detail or anything
that we do wrong is decisive.
Once it is assembled and covered,
I'll work on the reveal
and you work on the gaming part.
Ari, shall we go see the cakes up close?
-Yes. Let's go.
-Let's go.
-Don't distract them too much.
-No, just a bit.
Juan, while we're at it,
we should go too, right?
-We'll leave Capi here.
-Let's go.
You look like scouts selling cookies.
-We're scouts.
-We'll sell cookies.
-Hey, guys.
-Hey.
Welcome to our mess.
Do you feel more tense
or are you still relaxed?
We have two and a half hours and...
And the client is here.
And the surprise.
-It will have a surprise, right?
-Of course.
We're sure the reveal
will touch their hearts
and they'll remember the moment
they got married.
Do you remember your wedding cake?
-We don't have one.
-What?
-Why?
-We have an informal marriage.
-Not so informal.
-"Not so informal."
-There was never a wedding with a cake.
-No, there wasn't.
We've been together for 13 years
and I think that's the real evidence that...
-We love each other.
-We do. Exactly.
We should give you a bit of our cake.
Of course.
-Hi.
-Guys, how are you?
We're suffering.
-Suffering.
-Doing our best.
How's your progress,
since you started 57 minutes later?
We're moving fast,
but time is definitely our worst enemy.
It goes by fast.
How would you use the prize money?
Well, the plan is
to invest it in our coffee shop
and open our school, adapt it.
And also help our family.
It would be like acknowledging
all the work our family has done,
like saying, "We can do great things."
-Good luck.
-Good luck.
-Thanks.
-Thanks.
-Use time to your advantage.
-Yes.
-Is it going okay, love?
-Yes.
-Great.
-Oh God, hold on.
Oh no.
Oh my... What's going to happen?
-Hey.
-What? Shall I hold the cake?
No, it's okay.
This cake is very complicated
because we have to put it through tubes,
so it's important
to keep it from breaking.
-You know what? It won't come down.
-It won't?
-Hardware trouble, right?
-Yes.
Darned base.
We need a plan B or push it hard.
-Remove it. Put it here.
-I will perforate the cake here.
We have to be very careful
because if it breaks,
we'll have to start from scratch.
It's in.
Soon, I will yell. I'm warning you.
-I'll try to not get startled.
-Will it be loud? Okay.
Two... Two hours.
-I'll say it in fa.
-In fa.
Bakers!
You have two hours!
I want to finish.
This chocolate is impossible.
Use the mixer.
No. If I do, this will look horrible.
César is usually the one who is worked up.
But now Elio is the one that's worked up.
This chocolate is not working.
The ganache is failing us.
I don't know which chocolate I used.
That was the error.
This ganache is awful, but it's working.
You could add a bit of lard.
No, that won't work out.
After so many tries with this ganache,
I think it's time to move on.
-We'll make a... buttercream.
-Buttercream.
That will solve the problem
once and for all.
-We'll cover it...
-I'll cover this.
-With the flowers.
-Yes.
They always solve the problem,
and that's what they're doing.
I'm making some controllers, love.
As best as I can.
How pretty.
It's cool you made one
in a different color.
Just leave it, love...
I need to make it even.
You're being a bit too stubborn.
-No.
-I do this, and it spills.
-What can I do?
-Okay.
As with any couple,
there should always be a fight.
Not too bad.
-"But don't get angry."
-No, but you get so upset.
-Forget it. I won't argue.
-You stress me out more.
Sandra has a list of things
she'll complain about once they get home.
No, this chocolate is terrible.
I apply it, it comes off.
I try again, it comes off.
-Dampen it.
-Yes.
Use hot water.
-It'll take too long.
-It'll improve it.
We are very frustrated right now.
A lot has happened, but we don't give up.
Plan B. We'll use this ugly chocolate.
Then we cover it with molding chocolate
to smooth it out.
They seem pressured.
What I've seen all this time
is that the structure we had seen
hasn't progressed.
That's my only concern.
I feel like giving up and saying,
"You know what? Forget the cake."
"I'm leaving. I was fine being home."
But that's not our style.
-You'll cover all sides.
-I'll cover the sides.
After adding molding chocolate, I thought,
"We should've done this from the start."
The base is uneven. I can't believe it.
Will it fall?
-Look how it moves.
-Yes, it does.
How tall is it? One meter?
They'll end up owing us.
They will. Cut the cake.
Can it be taller?
-It's better, right?
-No, just leave it.
Yes, but you know what?
The base is inclined.
-It tilts forward.
-You don't want it to fall.
No. So, please cut it.
I have the other one.
Scrape some of the cream off.
It will be harder.
No, I'll put it in the freezer.
The Renterías have
chameleon-like adapting skills.
They covered the cakes with chocolate.
The chocolate hardens
and causes lots of trouble.
They changed the technique
to a buttercream,
which is much kinder.
It's the technique they used here, right?
Yes. And it allowed them
to progress a bit faster.
This is the last layer.
Hurry. When I'm done,
I'll put it in the fridge.
Prepare the fondant.
Yes.
Here it comes.
Give it to me. The base is like this.
-Okay.
-Look.
-She cut it.
-Was it a good decision?
It doesn't matter.
It was Sandra's decision.
And her decision is what matters.
This base is ugly, honey.
-I understand. Yes.
-Look.
It's very weak.
No, well...
She cut very little.
I don't think it made a difference.
-Tell Sandra that.
-Oh gosh.
-I'm just saying.
-We don't want more trouble.
-Give me the sheets. Prepare them?
-They're prepared.
There are more here.
Prepare them and give them to me.
Yeah.
Oh my God.
These are the last 60 minutes
of this unforgettable season!
Hurry so we can assemble.
-I don't like how it looks.
-I can do it.
-I'll remove it.
-No, I'll do it.
It's hard. I will remove it.
He had covered it fully
and he had to strip it again.
What do I hold on to?
My God, Sandra.
ROUND 2
Efraín said, "You can fall,
but not the cake."
Not the cake.
Crippled, but I'll have a million.
Check it out.
There, another layer.
-Yes.
-Another.
The cylinder gave it a glow-up.
Undoubtedly.
Add the other part. It's here. Now.
Yes, I'll just perfect this.
There are many things left to do.
I'm very concerned.
I'll get the little hearts.
I think the heart
will be the surprise, right?
That's taking you too long.
-It has many details.
-Look, I made it.
Dear bakers.
You have 15 minutes
to finish a wedding cake
of one meter and ten,
with a surprise inside
and five tiers.
There's a million pesos at stake!
And a trophy as well!
It looks very pale.
We should touch up the edges.
-I'll place the controllers in the front.
-Okay.
The Renterías have fallen way behind.
-They got stuck a bit.
-But I believe in them.
One meter?
-It goes through.
-Yes.
Yes, it's fine.
I hope we manage to finish
all the details we want to do.
We have to assemble the other one.
They just added an extra heart.
Six tiers. Wow!
Bakers, you have five minutes!
ROUND 2
There has never been an incomplete cake
in the history
of Sugar Rush: The Baking Point.
-At least one controller.
-Yes.
You don't want to break that record,
bakers. Believe me.
-Another color or just green?
-That's okay.
-Green looks cool, right?
-Yes.
The wires stay.
What do I do?
Twist and tuck them so they can move.
-I need help.
-Coming.
-Ready?
-Give me the glaze.
-I can't watch this.
-It has little arrows.
-Put them on.
-What color?
White because it's a wedding.
Oh my God.
-I worry that he's doing it so fast.
-Calm down!
-No, fast is good. They should hurry.
-Don't calm down.
Mom!
It's finished.
It's time to press that button.
Ready?
-Hurry!
-Oh my!
-Good job!
-Very good!
No! You left 2 minutes and 47 seconds
to throw them to the trash.
-I love you very much.
-Me too.
Damn it.
My heart is in my throat.
No, there's no time for jokes now.
I'll count to ten and we'll run.
I need to finish this.
I need some hearts. Can you give me some?
No, there's no time.
-Shall we hold hands?
-Yes.
Hurry. Here.
Ten, nine!
-Eight, seven, six!
-Come on, Sister!
-Yes! They finished!
-Yes!
The Renterías delivered the finale cake!
It was an extremely tough battle today,
but we did it.
Shall we see the designs up close?
-Yes, let them give us sugar, please.
-Please.
-Sandra, Efraín.
-Hi.
Hey, first of all,
congratulations on all your dedication.
I don't mean this challenge,
but the whole season
because we feel
how much you love each other
and it shows in your confections.
-A round of applause for you.
-Thank you.
Now, let's talk about the cake.
First, the requirements.
-Five tiers.
-Five tiers, okay. Let's count.
-One, two.
-Two...
-Three, four, five.
-Three, four, five. Perfect.
Video game theme.
I see some headphones and controllers too.
And, of course, the RGB light,
the gamer neon.
-Do you approve of those elements?
-Yes.
It should measure three feet, seven inches
so we can qualify
and maybe win.
Careful.
-Oh, damn it.
-Come on, Capi.
I'm holding it here at...
three feet and...
-Yes, indeed! It's over 3'7".
-Bravo!
-Over 3'7".
-Yes.
-Now the reveal.
-Yes.
We hope they like it.
The petals are falling off. Wow.
There it is. Can you see it?
There's one here.
-How pretty!
-There's another one here.
-Shall I hold it?
-Thank you.
-Oh, small hearts!
-How nice!
-Golden hearts.
-Those hearts are like fortune cookies.
This one says, "Level up."
This one says "Mexico and Colombia"
and has a little heart.
It feels very nice that they are touched
by everything we added for them.
Shall we renew our votes?
With a kiss.
Elio and César,
watching you while you worked was amazing.
You know that each of you
will always pull your own weight.
It's the best part of siblings.
Congratulations. A round of applause.
-Bravo!
-Thanks.
-Now, the requirements.
-Five tiers.
One, two...
-Three, four, five, six.
-Three, four, five, six.
-Six.
-We should remove one. Give me a knife.
Another requirement was elements of...
-Gaming.
-Controller.
And headphones. Excellent.
-Do they count?
-They do.
We're missing... Excuse me.
I'm very agile.
I've always been very agile for this.
Having it measure a meter ten as a minimum
will decide everything.
-This would be 3'7".
-Okay.
Yes...
Perfect. Very good.
A bit over 3'7". About one eighteen.
Barely, but we made it.
There are the letters.
-How nice.
-How pretty.
-A. J.
-A. J.
-She liked it.
-Yes.
This idea represents the stages
that sometimes love goes through.
Sometimes we're content and happy.
Sometimes we fight.
We wanted to represent that in our cake.
Our judges will decide once they taste...
-...one of the five slices you'll cut.
-Right away.
I am happy
with what we achieved, with the flavor.
I really liked it.
Sandra, Efraín, bring us
that special cake.
We think it's
the ideal cake for a wedding.
We made a poppy seed sponge cake
with a cream cheese
and Italian meringue filling,
and a pistachio brittle.
I like that we're eating something soft,
which is the bread,
and then you have the pistachio,
which is crunchy and adds flavor.
And visually, you were very creative.
I never imagined
there would be little papers
detaching from the top.
So congratulations.
-Thank you.
-The sponge cake has a nice texture.
But poppy seeds
do not have a very significant flavor,
unless there's lots of them.
I can taste the cream cheese,
the pistachio is very evident,
and the sweetness level is good.
-Thanks.
-I feel pretty confident about our work.
For this cake, we chose one of
our winning flavors, in my opinion.
I hope they like it.
It's a vanilla sponge cake,
it has cheesecake,
strawberry mousse, and strawberry compote.
It also has strawberry-flavored bombs.
You should taste it
and press it over your tongue
so you can feel the full flavor.
It has lots of flavor,
but the level of sweetness is not cloying.
It doesn't bother me.
I also congratulate you because,
despite the hurdles,
you managed to pull through.
However, I obviously believe
that you can do things
ten thousand times better.
But thank you for what you did today.
Thanks.
I loved that you added
a cheesecake. Great idea.
I feel that anyone that comes
to a wedding and gets this slice,
will be really happy
because these are fool-proof flavors.
Regarding the decoration,
I think if you had had more time,
I'm a hundred percent sure
you would've made something very special.
There are some small errors,
unfortunately, but congratulations.
-Thank you.
-Thanks.
-Now for the most important part.
-Yes.
Who is the winner?
This time, I'll ask the judges
to tell me who should be
the team that deserves to be
the winner of Season Two
of Sugar Rush: The Baking Point,
and will win a million pesos
and that beautiful golden trophy.
There's lots of tension in the air.
My vote is based
on an outstanding tasting.
Outstanding consistency,
not only in this episode,
but throughout the show.
And a positive attitude
the whole time, I should add.
The team that I think should win
Sugar Rush: The Baking Point is...
This is a unique moment.
Our emotions are wild.
We know that whatever comes next...
-We're here for each other.
-Yes.
...Elio and César.
We knew that Elio and César
were great contestants.
Whoever wins, wins.
I'll vote for a team
that always connects everything well.
Visually and what is inside the cake.
The team that I think should win is...
Please.
Let it be us.
Our son is our greatest hope
that they'll decide we are the winners.
Sandra and Efraín.
One vote for each.
Your joint vote will decide who will be
the winners of Season Two
of Sugar Rush: The Baking Point.
No pressure.
We have come to an agreement.
We met you today
and fell in love with your personalities
and your relationship.
Your relationship as a couple.
Your relationship as siblings.
But we've made a decision.
The team that should win
Season Two
of Sugar Rush: The Baking Point...
Is...
I'd love to learn that we are
the chosen ones in this grand finale
of Season Two
of Sugar Rush: The Baking Point.
Sandra and Efraín.
I'm shocked.
I don't know how to react
to what is happening.
Hey.
I really admire you, friends.
You deserve it.
Enjoy it and be very happy.
First, I'll ask César and Elio
to come here.
We want to thank you
for reminding us that family
will always be by your side.
-Whatever happens.
-Exactly.
Thank you.
This season, we've learned that baking
goes beyond ingredients.
It's a way to connect with people.
Reaching this point and doing it together
makes me very happy.
-I love you.
-I love you.
Now I'll ask the winners of Season Two
of Sugar Rush: The Baking Point
to come here
to get this trophy
because you have earned it
with all the love you've put
in everything you've done in that station.
-Come here, please.
-Bravo!
Here are the Sugar Rush:
The Baking Point champions!
Raise the trophy!
It's a dream come true.
-You gave it all, love.
-You too.
Feeling this is special and unique.
-Yes.
-Really.
Morganito, we won!
My son will be very proud of his parents,
and that fills our hearts.
I don't have the words to describe
what it feels like to be here with Sandra.
Thanks to her.
And I think
this is the perfect time to ask you...
if you want to marry me.
And to spend our lives together
until we're old, our whole lives.
No!
I think this is the culmination
of everything we've done.
That's why I wanted to do it here.
-Get on your knee.
-Here?
Yes or no?
-Yes!
-Bravo!
Yes, of course.
She said yes, guys!
There'll be a wedding.
And party and cake,
maybe baked by others
because I'm not making cakes for a while.
For a while, yes.
With this beautiful moment,
we thank you all
for watching Sugar Rush: The Baking Point.
See you next season, if we make it.
Thank you, everyone!
Bye!
