Hi Robin :)
First impressions
A dynamic, colourful image.
After some time with the image
You've created an image full of magic that fits in well with the theme, the set up and composition are good. Whilst the lights do add a great deal to the image I can see that all those circles within the confines of a square challenge could have lost you a few points. You mention focus, specifically the cube, it's difficult to tell but with the image at this size the focus seems fine and any drop off in sharpness is probably due to the small depth of field that you would have got with an aperture of f1.8.
A commenter mentioned the blurry hand and that is probably more of an issue, motion blur would have been fine but this looks like movement blur of a hungry husband expected to keep still for 1/50sec ;)
Overall
A creative image that has worked well, you were constrained by time and the prospect of basic editing, so you can only improve on this already good image.
