Estimated score: 6.2
Wishing for a 6.7, though.

PP: Not much. Cropped. Slight change of hue, saturation upped a bit, two masked levels layers, slight dodging of upper left corner and burning of reflection. USM.

Off to vacations.

Post challenge: A bit disappointing. Read more in this thread.

Simple and sweet! How did you get such a pristine surface? The whole photo is so sharp and clear it could be an advertisement. Well done.

I love the harsh white background and the fact that even achiving this you have not had any issues with blow out on the wrapper. Lovely minimalism and a super title
