Pharmacy worker Sura, 31, caused the disaster while trying to swat a fly - but collided with fellow baker Dave, 30.
And while his bashed-up cakes got a lukewarm response from the judges, she was crowned the overall winner of the technical bake.
Sura was clearly distraught at having ruined another contestant's creation - but some viewers weren't so sure.
One tweeted: "Deliberate sabotage - and it worked, she came first."

Another fumed: "There's no hell hot enough for desert saboteurs."
A third joked: "Taking out competitors tactically and putting on a show of emotion to escape blame. She's a natural. Will go far in this competition."
However, plenty stuck up for her, with one fan tweeting: "I completely relate to Sura here ❤.
"Mistakes happen and I guess they truly were pineapple 'upside down' cakes. Already love this year’s bakers."
