Not sure why contestants are allowed to modify their decoys. If they fail at the task (which is making a cake that looks real, not a real object to look like cake), then it's fair to face the consequences rather than presenting their work as better than what it is.
The "funny" jokes by the host followed by forced fake laughter by the contestants is just adding to the lack of authenticity of the show.
And judges having little to no idea of neither cakes nor art. Choosing a toolbox and not Mona Lisa, was just "the cherry on top" for me. How many cake artists can do what Miko did? A masterpiece on a cake that was left a runner-up.
