This year, the competition brought together 12 national teams from across the globe: four from America, four from Europe, and four from Asia. Together, they faced ten highly demanding technical challenges designed to test technical precision, creativity, and presentation. Competitors crafted everything from classic gelato creations like cakes, sticks, and single portions in glass to advanced artistic masterpieces, including chocolate sculptures and large-scale showpieces. Singapore's team – Jason Tan (Team Manager), Dexter Lee and Loh Cheng Kit (Pastry Chefs), and Chew Wei Lung (Chef) – wowed the judges with their project, 'Circus'. Inspired by balance, precision, and wonder, the concept came to life in every challenge. The competition wasn't smooth sailing either: "One of our members almost couldn't make it due to a family emergency and only arrived a day before the competition," Jason shared.
