I have never won the grand prize.
Not once.
I do not use anything but sugar cubes.
Personally, I think if I log on and play everyday, I should be able to win the grand prize without using my simoleons, SIM cash, or cupcakes.
I never get my hopes up for any of the events anymore.
If I play and win, I win. If I don't win, I don't win.
But I also take long breaks from Sims mobile. When I come back, it is like new.
How can you get excited about winning a color.
You play and play, only to get a white color.
You play and play, only to get a green color.
Yay...Not.

I agree that without simoleons and/or cupcakes it is impossible.
I played only with sugarcubes the Laundry event 2.0 (I hated the prizes) and with only sugarcubes I could only open 62/78 boxes or something like that.

Fire Monkey should tweak the STS a little.
1. Llama Zoom should give you cookies since colors are prizes.
2. If I do not use all my sugar cubes, they should save for future rounds.
3. The Quest should coincide with the Showdown, somehow. If I finish the quest, I should get the grand prize.

How?!!
I don't know.
From my side the question is the opposite: I don't get why some players are never able to win the grand prize. Not even for a STS every now and then, when they like the prize a lot.
My strategy is this:
For 7 round challenges:
1st round: no sugarcube
2nd round: four sugar cubes
3rd round: six sugar cubes
For round 4, 5 and 6 I use 8 sugar cubes
I quit after level 6
For 9 or 10 round challenges:
1st round: no sugarcube
2nd round: no sugar cube if the starting percentage is 90%, otherwise two sugarcubes
3nd round: four sugar cubes
4rd round: six sugar cubes
For round 5, 6 and 7 I use 8 sugar cubes
I quit after level 7
The sugar cubes are 30 and with my strategy you would need 34 or 36. In fact I replace the sugar cubes with ads or simoleons, depending how lucky I am. Sometimes you get enough ads to increase the percentage. Sometimes I need to add simoleons.
Sometimes I fail: normally at round 1 with 85%, at round 2 with 89% or at rould 3 with 91-93%. But in general I play safe.
I use the cupcakes only for the challenges 9 or 10 rounds long and absolutely in combination with simoleons.
I use the cupcakes to buy extra sugar: 6 cupcakes for 12 extra sugar. In that challenge, I use simoleons to buy extra percentage every time that I find this possibility.
In this way I arrive to the maximum round and I make the best use of the cupcakes and simoleons. Because the royal tokens increase exponentially at every round.
Normally I get the grand prize a couple of days before that the event expires.
I hope it can help.
Your strategy seems good but I no longer have access to the ads for help, so I forced to bail out every attempt.

@redwingsgirl14Hello 😊!
You know some STS events were during the beginning a bit hard to make.
I also do think that you now can win it much better.
At least with perhaps investing some small simcash at the end, it's a sure thing when you were unlucky.
Or if you are out of time and have that money, then with the pro ticket.
But i have to say that i also missed several bakings and was very encouraged from playing at the start.
They made it better now, but people still have a problem for a 10 -14 days event i am guessing.
And i also do think that the Lama Zoom should give baking tokens.
Not everybody has the money for the pro mixer.
Well they are hosting other events now in between..the oldschool box events.
I think that will be a perfect balance to all players who do not like the STS, and for new players who can win all the cool stuff now.
Or if you do not want to invest simcash or a pro ticket.
Greetings ☺
