"Iced shrimp cocktail!" He simply said before passing the cup at Kade. Maybe the hairdresser would be able to make it look good or something. However, with the past results, it was doubtful.

“Uh?” He paused as he was handed the baguette. ..But, this was a dessert round, why did they need..? Oh! But, he was going to burn it – light it up! Keith was actually asking him this time! He grinned and nodded multiple times, excited as he went to the oven. Now, to a crisp? As dark as possible? Oh, yes, he knew exactly what to do. He carefully began to stick matches into the baguette, over the top much like one would a birthday cake.. though, only if someone was turning, like, fifty or something. Did old people have birthday cakes? He wasn't sure, but by the time he was done, there was more than enough matches to get the result Keith wanted. Okay.. Now.. He set it inside the already heated oven onto the rack and lit up the first match before shutting it. He sat down and leaned against the oven, watching the fire excitedly from the little window.

There, Conor was busy not ruining his dish! Using his trusted knife, Keith sliced all the fruits in the perfect shape. Making sure that most of them were the right size. Then, he cutted the cake, trying to make a fish form out of it. Yes, the cuts were good but... he never really was good in art class... That did look like a fish, right? Oh well, even if it wasn't he still had the seaweed at the bottom to give it the seafood them...

 •••••••••••••••••••••••••••Winnie Bloom The girl leaned over, peering inside the oven. She did this a few times until she decided it was done. It was a little too golden, brown but not burnt. She placed it on the counter and waited for a while, before flipping the pan upside down, as the cake fell out. It was just a rectangle right now. She still needed to carve it, maybe Herman would help her. No, this was all her, she had to prove that she could do it herself. He had made almost everything so far. She took a small knife and began to carve into the cake. It was like scuplting, but more delicate. She took a while to do it, though in the end it just looked like a log with claws. The frosting would have to do it. Combining red food coloring with white buttercream frosting, she frosted the lobster bright red, as if it had been cooked. It turned out ok. She wasn't sure how great it would taste, but it looked adorable. After finishing the cake, she turned to Herman with a smile. She wondered if he was on board with the whole idea, she had just jumped into it. She had to prove she could do something, baking just had to be it. (lobstercake)

A, uh.. Shrimp cocktail? Kade had been depressed by his constant failures too, but Yoakim was just giving up! That was so obvious it wasn't even funny! He frowned in disappointment – well.. Maybe he should give up too.. It looked like today was the worst day ever! He wanted to cry after writing a long passage in his diary about how horrible it was! He even gave a sniff or two now, but.. But! No! No, Kade could manage this! He still had invisible sleeves to roll up and ice cream to work with! He could do this for he was Kade, owner of the Sugar Salon and best dang hairdresser here! Yeah! He gave himself a pat on the back to further encourage himself and took the cocktail, working his very, very best to get this done right! While praying that this wouldn't be another horrible attempt.. He couldn't lose a customer over this and Gaston was looking like he was preparing to do just that!

Hoping that this round would be beeter than the last one, Gladice made her way to her favourite contestant, Haruka. The girl had manage to stay in the top in both previous round and was one of the most likely to win. However, when gladice too a look at what she had done, she couldn't find anything fish related! Sure, it was citrus and citrus went well with fish but... it wasn't fish Further more... mousse itself was badly done! There were still some little chuncks here and there. Sure, it looked pretty, but at this point of the competition, Gladice didn't care anymore about prettiness. She wanted good cooking, nothing else. She took a very disappointed bite.

She wasn't sure if it was the poor cooking or her low expectations, but that dish... just didn't make the cut. At all! What had happen to that poor girl. She had been so good, up until now. She gave a very disappointed look at Haruka before moving one.
The next one were the German family. They had been average all round long. The average, however, was probably why they were doing well, considering the utter failure of everyone else in the previous round. Well, almost everyone. She took a look at their desert. It was icecream but.. something was strange about it... Well, first of all, it didn't look appetizing at all. Was there fish in it? Oh! It was fish ice cream! Haha! How ingenious! They had manage well to incorporate the fish inside the dish without ruining the whole thing. Good job, German family, good job!

Oh Good Lord! Even the ingeniousness of the dish couldn't save it! Salmon and ice cream didn't go well together, at all. It was... disgusting. She forced herself to swallow it while giving a huge grimace. She could already tell that Bella would hate the mere idea of eating it. Oh well, too bad German family, too bad.
She moved to her less favourite contestant. Yeah, she was still angry at Dante for trying to cheat earlier. She took a look at the twin's plate. That was... shrimp? Oh.. but they smelled good... Okay, maybe she wasn't angry at him anymore. She took a curious bite.

 Maybe she should have staid angry at him. The whole dish was wrong! It tasted bad, the outiside turned out to be overcooked while the inside was still cold. How did they cook it. She spit her shrimp back into a napkin and gave a mean look at Dante. He could expect to have a very low score. A very, very low one. She moved on.
Next were the teenagers. She really didn't knew what to think about them anymore. The technique had been close to perfection, but the cooking had been disastrous. Always burning something while under cooking something else. Their dish, over average, went from under average to over average. Maybe this one would be good. She looked at it. What was it.. oh? Was it a fish? Oh, good idea. The cake was a fish, with a little ocean floor using different kinds of beans and seaweed. Oh at least, that was what it was suppose to be. You could see that intention behind it, but you could also see that neither boys had taken art classes. The cake, however, was very well done. Seemed to be cooked properly (for once), and the design on it using fruits was also good. Not surprisingly anymore, the fruits were all cut perfectly. They might not have been the best cooks, but that boy sure knew how to handle a knife
She took a bite with high expectations.

Oh! There was a God on this earth, and that god had taken the form of a weird looking fish cake! It was.. so good! Sure, it was only a pound cake now that she tasted it, but it was a really good pound cake! And the fruits on it just added even more flavours! Good job boys! She took an other bite and moved on... Actually, two other bites.
Next on the list were the school team. She looked at what they had done. Oh, seems like they too went with making desert to look like fish, instead of using fish in their cooking. That was a good point for them. And those little lobster were so cute too! Much more better looking that the previous fish-shaped cake. However... the technique wasn't as good. She could tell that the cake had been formed into a lobster too soon. Not cooled enough. And and was the claw bigger than the other? Gladice didn't really knew what to think. She just took a normal bite.
