The Victoria Team from Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM), consisting of Adella Wahyu Pradita (Accounting 2022), Aurel Diyah Agustin (Accounting 2022), and Dita Ristyani (Health Nutrition 2022), successfully won 1st place in this competition. Victoria's team initiated the business of low-calorie white bread made from banana blossoms and chayote with anthocyanin and fibre content as a healthy food product that contributes to preventing and minimizing obesity in society.

They named this brilliant business idea that contributes to nutritional fulfilment as Nutri Loaf. They claim that this product will be equipped with informative, intelligent packaging that detects the quality of white bread so that it can minimize the risk of food being wasted due to forgetting to consume it.
