00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:04,495
Ah, it's botanicals week,
celebrating everything botanical -
2
00:00:04,520 --> 00:00:07,295
flavours, spices and edible floral
displays.
3
00:00:07,320 --> 00:00:09,375
So, Noel, have a taste of that.
4
00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:11,695
I'm not tasting that, it looks like
it won first prize
5
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:12,776
at the Chelsea Flower Show.
6
00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:14,455
Well, it's all edible.
7
00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:17,255
The whole thing? The whole thing.
8
00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:18,280
OK...
9
00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:22,655
What are you doing?! What? You're
not supposed to eat the plate!
10
00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:23,735
SHE SIGHS
11
00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:27,015
Welcome to
The Great British Bake Off.
12
00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:29,055
It's not bad actually.
It's got a nice crunch.
13
00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:31,335
Are you all right?
I'm going to eat the table next.
14
00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:35,655
Last time...
We're off to a really good start.
15
00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:38,095
The bakers felt the
pressure in pastry week.
16
00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:39,335
Oh, no.
17
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:41,615
While Josh's sunflower shone...
18
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:43,495
I can't fault that. Thank you.
19
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:46,575
It was Cristy who won Star Baker.
20
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:48,215
They're three very good pies.
21
00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:50,935
Things were absolutely less
fabulous for Rowan...
22
00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:52,575
Look, it's broke. Oh, God.
23
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:54,615
And Nicky...
It's not risen, has it?
24
00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:58,135
And they became the latest
bakers to leave the competition.
25
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:00,175
It was like a bag of pants
this week.
26
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:03,295
Saying goodbye is
the worst part about this.
27
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:04,575
Now...
28
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:05,855
Go, girl!
29
00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:08,215
It's botanicals week.
Dandelion syrup.
30
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:10,135
And the bakers spice up
the Signature...
31
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:12,855
Come here. Yeah.
Just lean on these buns. Come on.
32
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:15,255
Are living on borrowed
time in the technical...
33
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:16,495
Out of sight, out of mind.
34
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:19,255
And take on a blooming
ambitious Showstopper.
35
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:20,655
This is crazy.
36
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:22,535
Who will come up smelling of roses?
37
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:24,215
It's absolutely heavenly.
38
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:26,775
And who will be rooted out of
the competition?
39
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:29,640
That was t'wrong thing
to do, weren't it?
40
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:54,775
Week six. I can't believe it.
41
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:56,175
There's only seven of us.
42
00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:59,135
It's a big change,
going from nine to seven.
43
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,415
Good luck, good luck, good luck.
44
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:03,255
Botanical week is quite different.
45
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:06,095
I had to ask Lara what botanicals
was and then Google it, but...
46
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:09,095
Tsh, tsh, tsh, tsh.
47
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:12,615
Botanicals is sort of like flavours
that have come from plants,
48
00:02:12,640 --> 00:02:14,975
like flowers and the roots or the
bark.
49
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,375
It's not something that
I usually work with
50
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:19,815
because you can't go foraging really
in London.
51
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:21,255
Because we're coming closer
52
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,095
and closer to the end, I'd like
to get at least a handshake,
53
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,535
come first in Technical or
Star Baker.
54
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:27,975
One of them and I'll be happy.
55
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,095
NOEL CHUCKLES
56
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,695
Welcome to botanicals week,
everybody.
57
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,615
Now, this is a chance for you
to get your botties out
58
00:02:39,640 --> 00:02:42,015
and show us what they can do.
59
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,575
For your botty Signature Challenge,
60
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:48,575
the judges would love you
to celebrate spice by making
61
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:52,975
a batch of 12 perfectly
fragrant spiced buns.
62
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:56,735
You have two hours
and 45 minutes before Prue
63
00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,055
and Paul want to see your buns.
64
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:00,496
Paul already checked mine out
this morning.
65
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:01,775
He did, didn't he? I saw him.
66
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:03,135
He was disappointed!
67
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:06,615
On your marks... Get set...
68
00:03:06,640 --> 00:03:08,855
Bake!
69
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:10,255
Here we go.
70
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,855
I have made spiced buns at home,
71
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,215
but just got to get 'em identical
today.
72
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:17,615
Bread week went well
so I'm using what I know.
73
00:03:17,640 --> 00:03:19,375
Oh, my God, I forgot the egg,
hang on.
74
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,895
It's botanicals week
and we're celebrating spice,
75
00:03:21,920 --> 00:03:24,655
herbs and lots of floral hints.
76
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:27,535
In life, I would say I'm quite
spicy. Probably not in baking.
77
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:31,495
So the Signature Challenge
is 12 spiced buns.
78
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:34,535
Spice is the hero so we
want to taste it.
79
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:35,856
Don't want it to be too much, do ya?
80
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:37,455
I don't want to offend them with it.
81
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:38,895
And you know what Paul is like -
82
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:41,575
they have to be
absolutely identical.
83
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:43,255
It's about keeping it consistent,
84
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:49,255
to create 12 beautifully
sweet, spiced, sticky buns.
85
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:54,135
Hello, Saku. Hello, hello.
86
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:55,855
Tell us all about your spiced buns.
87
00:03:55,880 --> 00:04:00,535
I'm making Swedish cinnamon buns
with lots of cardamon.
88
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:06,455
Saku... I'm not trying
to confuse you!
89
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:12,015
Well, I'm confused because I'm so
used to you bringing Sri Lanka into this.
90
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:13,935
Yes. Cinnamon and cardamon from
Sri Lanka.
91
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:15,495
This is international affair.
92
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,775
Swedish bun with the Sri Lankan
cinnamon and cardamon.
93
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,175
For her take on Swedish
cinnamon buns,
94
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,775
Saku will add cardamon to both
the dough
95
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:27,375
and cinnamon filling before creating
its intricate shape.
96
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:32,615
I swirl it and then I shape it
into a kind of little knot.
97
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:34,975
And they'll all be identical?
Exactly?
98
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,335
I hope it will be identical.
They will be.
99
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:39,655
Well, good luck, Saku, I think it
sounds delicious.
100
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:41,695
Thank you very much. Good luck.
101
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:43,775
That's looking pretty groovy.
102
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,175
All the bakers are making
an enriched bread dough.
103
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:48,535
It's got butter in it so it's got
the extra fat.
104
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,255
Kind of soften it, just makes it a
bit more flavourful as well.
105
00:04:51,280 --> 00:04:55,655
Adding spices at this stage will not
only boost the flavour of their cake...
106
00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:56,895
Smells nice.
107
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,935
But also lend it
an enticing colour.
108
00:04:59,960 --> 00:05:02,376
Saffron goes into the buns, gives
'em a nice yellow summery colour.
109
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:03,895
That's all the spice in, yeah,
110
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:07,095
so it's got, like, that
gorgeous brown colour to it.
111
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:08,255
Or not.
112
00:05:08,280 --> 00:05:10,855
That is disgusting. You're not
putting this in your bake.
113
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:13,175
It's in there. When you
add mulled wine to egg,
114
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:14,215
it just goes really grey.
115
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,015
That is absolutely vile, babes.
116
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:17,975
Thank you.
117
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:19,815
They may currently be grey,
118
00:05:19,840 --> 00:05:23,415
but Tasha's hoping her buns will
bring some festive cheer to the tent
119
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,535
with cinnamon, nutmeg
and cloves in her fillings,
120
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:30,495
and mulled wine in her egg wash
and glaze as well as her dough.
121
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:33,615
The mulled wine is the liquid that
goes into the dough, is it?
122
00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:36,215
So it replaces half the milk
and water.
123
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,175
Quite a dangerous thing to do.
124
00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:43,535
Thank you. Do you find that
the dough can be quite tight?
125
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:44,560
No comment.
126
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:49,935
Paul, she's playing you at your
own game. This is like poker!
127
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:55,015
I'm meant to say "no comment”,
not you!
128
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:57,375
While Tasha tackles Christmas...
129
00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,455
The flavours are always nice.
Famous last words.
130
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:02,375
Matty's embracing Easter.
131
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,175
I'm making a spiced hot cross bun.
132
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:06,575
I done a practice,
but they weren't very good.
133
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:10,895
But I think I was trying to get 'em
done before the West Ham game.
134
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,535
To ensure his flavours hit
the back of the net,
135
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:17,175
as the only baker not to use
136
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:20,215
a filling, Matty is packing his
dough with cinnamon,
137
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:25,015
nutmeg and ginger along with dried
fruits he's soaked in ginger rum.
138
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:26,535
Hot cross buns, recently,
139
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:28,455
the bought ones,
have got worse and worse.
140
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:29,575
Don't hold back, Prue!
141
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:33,015
You need to show the nation what
a really good hot cross bun can be.
142
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:35,335
Don't put that pressure on me!
143
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:37,656
Looking forward to this, mate.
Thank you, cheers. Thank you.
144
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:38,680
Good luck. Thank you.
145
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:44,135
The nation are dependent.
I don't even like hot cross buns!
146
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:45,735
I reckon that looks lovely.
I'm happy.
147
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,695
Looking for it to be really soft
and smooth and stretchy,
148
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:50,375
ready for its first prove.
149
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:52,695
A bit tack, but Paul said to me in
150
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,375
the technical of bread week
it was under proved.
151
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,255
You don't want to be told
the same negative thing twice.
152
00:06:58,280 --> 00:07:00,575
Flying. Here we go.
153
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:01,775
In the drawer.
154
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:03,615
With their dough rising...
155
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:06,135
Do you want me to open it?
No, no, don't.
156
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,975
Don't want to be responsible
for lack of rise.
157
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,415
The bakers can turn
to their fillings.
158
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:15,815
This is the cinnamon. I know they
like a punchy flavour, don't they?
159
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:17,655
I hope I get it just right.
160
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,895
As well as incorporating cinnamon
into her pecan filling
161
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,215
and dough, Cristy's also adding it
162
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:26,655
to her glaze, which she'll drizzle
on with maple syrup.
163
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:27,815
This is going to be good.
164
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:29,055
Can I just say something?
165
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:32,415
Go on. Star Baker. Handshake.
166
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:34,895
What the hell? No tears in this tent
today, is there? No.
167
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:37,216
Let's be honest. I don't know,
we've got to see how these go.
168
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:38,240
Go, girl!
169
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:42,855
While Cristy's
supersizing her spice...
170
00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:44,655
Might need a bit more cinnamon,
you know.
171
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:46,975
Dana is dialling hers down.
172
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,335
Last time I used cardamon, you said
it was medicinal,
173
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:51,375
so I'm reining it back a bit.
174
00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:53,735
How are you bringing these
flavours into the bun?
175
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:57,575
The dough's plain and then the
cardamon comes in in the filling.
176
00:07:57,600 --> 00:07:59,535
With no flavouring in her dough,
177
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,535
Dana's relying on her other
elements to pack a punch.
178
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:06,255
She's using cardamon, pistachio
and orange in her fillings,
179
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:07,815
glazes and toppings.
180
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:12,655
And to finish, she'll sprinkle rose
petals on her knotted creations.
181
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:14,935
Interesting shape. Lovely flavours.
182
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:16,815
I think it sounds really delicious.
183
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:19,376
It's about uniformity and it's about
getting all those flavours through
184
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,135
as well. Yeah, I hope so. And
getting the cardamon levels just right.
185
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:23,815
Um... Yes.
186
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:26,255
LAUGHTER
187
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:29,815
Just a tiny bit of maple.
I don't want it to be over sweet.
188
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,735
Ensuring the perfect balance...
More cardamon.
189
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,255
With the spices dominant
but not overwhelming...
190
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:36,855
Just fine-tuning.
191
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:40,855
Becomes even trickier when they're
paired with other strong flavours.
192
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,215
Because it's going to be nice
and spiced,
193
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,255
I wanted something else
to just cut through that
194
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:48,055
so I'm going to inject a lemon curd
into the centre of the buns.
195
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,695
In addition to his tangy lemon curd
filling,
196
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:54,255
Josh is giving his cinnamon buns
a further fruity frisson
197
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:57,055
with fresh and dried blueberries.
198
00:08:57,080 --> 00:09:00,655
Are we going to think this is
a lemon and blueberry bun or are we
199
00:09:00,680 --> 00:09:02,135
going to think this is a spiced bun?
200
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:04,855
The dried ones |I've soaked in
a cinnamon tea overnight.
201
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:07,175
Does it stop the blueberry
being a blueberry?
202
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,575
No, no, it still holds the taste.
203
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:12,855
Paul's worried about blueberries,
I can see it.
204
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:14,815
Good luck.
205
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:18,535
Dan is also adding fruity
flavours to his spiced buns.
206
00:09:18,560 --> 00:09:21,375
Lemon, I've got some orange,
I'm going to top it with some figs.
207
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,095
These are the type of buns
you'd like to eat outside
208
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:27,695
a Greek taverna with a lovely
little mug of espresso.
209
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:30,015
To capture the spirit of the Aegean,
210
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,415
as well as his figs
and citrus fruits,
211
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:34,495
Dan will use saffron, cinnamon
212
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:38,335
and star anise in his
Chelsea bun-style creations.
213
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:39,496
Can't go wrong with buns, can you?
214
00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:41,415
No, no, hopefully not, no.
215
00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:43,935
I probably can, but... we shall see.
216
00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:45,295
I feel like.
217
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:46,575
So sorry, darlings.
218
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:48,895
Who's this? It's my stalker.
Don't worry.
219
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:50,415
The dame can appear anywhere.
220
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,775
It's like Rentaghost,
she can just pop up anywhere. Yeah.
221
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:57,056
Occasionally when I wake up in the morning,
she's there at the end of my bed. Is she, yeah?
222
00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:59,695
That's... quite scary.
That sounded weird, didn't it?
223
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:01,015
It did, pretty weird, yeah.
224
00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:03,935
Suppose it's better than Paul
being there, I suppose, isn't it?
225
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:09,095
Bakers, you are halfway through.
226
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:13,695
It's quite hot in there.
I don't want them to over prove.
227
00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,415
The extra fat in an
enriched dough as well as
228
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:20,455
the addition of the fruit and
spices can mean a slower rise.
229
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:21,695
Let me just check.
230
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:25,095
But if the bakers remove their
dough before it's fully proved...
231
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:26,256
I've still got five more minutes.
232
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:27,735
Please, prove!
233
00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:31,175
They risk a tight texture
in their finished buns.
234
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:34,135
I don't know. It's got another prove
yet anyway so we'll go with it.
235
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:37,456
I'd say go a bit longer cos he always says it's
not proved enough, remember? He does, yeah.
236
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:38,775
Just do it a little bit longer.
237
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,735
Watch him say it's over proved this
week. Oh, don't say that!
238
00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:44,855
If he says that, I'll just
look the other way!
239
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:46,615
I'm just going to get it out.
240
00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:47,935
It's huge.
241
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,175
Pretty good. Um, it's nice and
proved. Perfect.
242
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,535
I'm just going to mix in all
of this filling.
243
00:10:53,560 --> 00:10:56,655
I don't think blueberry is that
strong a fruit.
244
00:10:56,680 --> 00:10:58,455
It's just a nice blend, I think.
245
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:01,495
Need to put a very thin layer.
246
00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:04,695
I hope Paul loves these nuts,
these fine nuts.
247
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:08,455
If I can make sure that they're even
weight, it should mean that they end
248
00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:10,175
up looking somewhat the same.
249
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:14,135
The judges are expecting
12 identical spiced buns...
250
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:16,016
It's always a bit thinner at
one end, it's so annoying.
251
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:18,375
But the more complicated
the shape of the buns...
252
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:22,775
I'm cutting into 12 equal pieces
then twisting.
253
00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:24,535
The trickier that
will be to achieve.
254
00:11:24,560 --> 00:11:27,255
Pinch it and roll.
255
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:29,175
One done. It looks quite pretty.
256
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:32,415
Silly me.
257
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:36,975
Measured in inches and
then cut into centimetres.
258
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:38,815
These are quite big.
259
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:40,696
I've got a feeling they're
just going to go Waah,
260
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:42,335
like Yorkshire puddings.
261
00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:45,975
Looks identical in shape,
isn't it? Happy, happy, happy.
262
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,335
Think a couple are a
bit higher than the others,
263
00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,856
but the second prove, they'll all
sort of start joining together.
264
00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:53,895
I'm happy with them. At the moment,
they all look quite identical,
265
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:57,575
apart from that one. I'm hoping
we'll have twins and not sisters.
266
00:11:57,600 --> 00:11:58,895
Ready, in.
267
00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:04,215
Bakers, you have half an hour left.
268
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:06,735
Prove is definitely done.
269
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:07,815
Think they look all right.
270
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:09,776
I'm just putting an egg wash on
there so it'll get nice
271
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:11,015
and brown when baked.
272
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,615
It's like this grey sludge.
273
00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:15,935
Don't know if this is good.
It's very, very gloopy.
274
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:17,535
The figs are really nice on top
275
00:12:17,560 --> 00:12:19,856
and I'm just going to baste it in
some of the honey and butter.
276
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:20,976
Turns into jam, pretty much.
277
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:22,495
We're going in.
278
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:23,975
195, 20 minutes.
279
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:26,775
12 minutes, 200.
280
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:36,775
They're looking quite nice actually,
yeah, nice and golden in colour.
281
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:38,455
Little bit longer.
282
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:40,055
Few more minutes.
283
00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:46,015
They look beautiful, look at that.
Are you happy?
284
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,655
I am happy. You don't look happy.
285
00:12:48,680 --> 00:12:50,175
But, you know, it's sticking out.
286
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:52,535
Oh, it's all right.
It's fine, it's fine. Come here.
287
00:12:52,560 --> 00:12:54,895
Yeah. Just lean on these buns.
Come on.
288
00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:56,815
Lean on these buns,
have a little sleep.
289
00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:59,175
SAKU SNORES
Let me rub your head.
290
00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:01,975
I don't think the cross has worked.
It's, like, really faint.
291
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,455
Bakers, you have ten minutes left.
292
00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:07,775
Oh, flippin' heck. Ten minutes
to get your buns out the oven.
293
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:11,535
Yeah, I'm quite impressed.
294
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:14,695
They're not identical at all.
295
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:18,775
All look very even.
296
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:20,735
Oh, these are not identical.
297
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:24,575
Pretty good. Nice and hollow.
298
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:27,695
I'm just going to give it
a nice glaze.
299
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:28,936
Quite pleased with that colour.
300
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:31,495
Maybe just they're not
quite identical.
301
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:32,655
Lemon curd in the middle.
302
00:13:32,680 --> 00:13:34,975
I've got my mulled wine glaze
303
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:36,735
and it'll kind of melt
into the pastry.
304
00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:38,375
And it's not grey!
305
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:41,015
Glaze on, going to get it all in my
nooks and crannies.
306
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:43,535
Lovely bakers,
you have one minute left.
307
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:48,495
Finishing touches, I've just
sprinkled some cinnamon.
308
00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:51,415
I've never done that before so let's
see how that one turns out.
309
00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:56,456
Add a bit of glitter. I wanted the two-tone
so you know they're lemon and blueberry.
310
00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:57,935
So let's get 'em on, then.
311
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,095
Sprinkling some rose petals on
the top.
312
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:04,815
After all, it is botanical week.
313
00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:08,055
Oh, my word, two more to go.
Not enough space.
314
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:10,855
Don't think it's going to fit on
my tray.
315
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:13,255
I hope they live up to
everyone's expectations.
316
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:17,135
Oh, mine are all misshapen.
317
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:19,855
Bakers, your time is up.
318
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:22,135
Step away-a from ya buns.
319
00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:23,415
Stop.
320
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:25,215
Come on, let's have a group hug.
321
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:31,055
I don't want anyone to touch me.
322
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:33,575
You smashed it, guys. Well done.
323
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:45,135
The bakers' spiced buns will now be
judged by Paul and Prue.
324
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,015
Hello, Tasha. Hello.
325
00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:48,215
Hello, Tasha.
326
00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:55,575
I like the colour. It's unusual.
It's quite festive.
327
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:58,215
I think, if anything,
they're a bit big.
328
00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:01,335
But there's a lot of consistency
there, which I quite like.
329
00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:04,215
Wow, that's quite an open structure
in there. Surprising.
330
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:05,240
Worth the risk.
331
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:11,175
It's Christmas. Phew.
332
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:13,055
I love the flavour.
I like the texture.
333
00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:16,935
It is beautifully balanced between
all the flavours.
334
00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:19,575
And you've created something that is
really pleasant in the mouth.
335
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:22,015
Well done. Terrific, Tasha.
Thank you. Thank you.
336
00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:23,335
SHE EXHALES
337
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:31,255
I love the shine on them.
338
00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:34,415
I think they look really
tempting and delicious,
339
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:35,775
but they're very uneven.
340
00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:37,335
They're dramatically uneven.
341
00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:41,975
You do get the saffron,
you get the spices coming through
342
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,335
and at a nice level as well.
It's not overpowering.
343
00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:47,815
My only big issue is the consistency
and the shape and size. Yeah.
344
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:50,135
You know, what I think is the
crowning glory
345
00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:51,815
is the fresh figs on top. Yeah.
346
00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:54,215
I think that's a real piece
of genius, it's lovely.
347
00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:56,576
It does work well. Thank you.
Brilliant. That's great, thank you.
348
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:58,440
Thank you, darl.
Thank you very much, nice one.
349
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:04,775
The issue is the consistency or
inconsistency
350
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:06,135
of the shape and colour. Yeah.
351
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:08,415
There's not two alike.
It's a shame.
352
00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:11,935
Not a lot of cardamon. OK.
353
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:13,535
You get the orange
and the pistachio.
354
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:15,575
Cardamon, barely getting that.
355
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:17,335
Actually get more of
the rose coming in.
356
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:19,655
Oh, do you? Yeah.
We'll just change the title of it!
357
00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:21,175
They're rose buns. Yeah.
358
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:23,455
There we go. Thank you.
Thank you. Thank you.
359
00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:31,495
I think they look very nice.
I like the colour.
360
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:33,135
Bit of an unusual size difference.
361
00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:34,615
My maths went wrong.
362
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:36,015
Don't you work in accountancy?
363
00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:38,535
Shh! I will lose my job now!
364
00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:40,855
Um, the knot works quite nicely.
365
00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:43,135
Yes, yes, I love the twisting,
it's lovely.
366
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:46,615
Quite a tight texture.
367
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:49,695
Mmm...
368
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,175
I think your balance
of cardamon is just lovely.
369
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:54,535
The flavour combination
between the cardamon
370
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:56,455
and the cinnamon is
absolutely spot-on.
371
00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:59,175
Well done, Saku.
Thank you very much. Thank you.
372
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:06,535
Well, they look very unusual.
373
00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:08,855
Looks like a cartoon character
with the eyes, you know?
374
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:10,295
“Look into my eyes!"
375
00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:12,575
Nice colour,
it's got a lovely colour.
376
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:17,575
You don't get the blueberry.
377
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:20,375
The blueberry's become a
carrier for the cinnamon. Yeah.
378
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:21,495
I actually quite like it.
379
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:25,895
It reminds me of an iced bun with
the lemon running through it.
380
00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:27,696
Iced buns are one of
my favourite things ever.
381
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:30,015
I do think the bread is beautiful.
382
00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:32,375
The glaze is beautiful
and I like the look of them.
383
00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:34,655
Wonderful. Thank you.
So it's a pretty good bun.
384
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:44,615
I think they're pretty
consistent, these.
385
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:47,975
Wow. They look impressive inside,
I'll tell you that now.
386
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:50,295
Oh, good. To get that even
all the way through.
387
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:51,695
You've rolled the dough really
388
00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:54,855
thinly so that you get a lot of
filling... Yeah... and I like that.
389
00:17:57,120 --> 00:17:58,295
Flavour is lovely.
390
00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:02,095
Maple syrup's there. It's not too
sweet. Very nice. That's delicious.
391
00:18:02,120 --> 00:18:04,775
It is absolutely delicious and
I'm trying not to eat any more.
392
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:06,295
Thank you. Well done.
393
00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:12,656
Well, I think they
look lovely and shiny.
394
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:15,015
They're very even.
You've managed the cross.
395
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:16,296
Cross looks good.
I do like the colour.
396
00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:18,935
There's some nice consistency there
as well. What is it again?
397
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:20,895
Hot cross. Hot cross bun? Yeah.
398
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:22,455
I'll judge you as a hot cross bun.
399
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:24,375
If it's better,
it's just a spiced bun.
400
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:27,415
LAUGHTER
401
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:29,855
Right answer!
402
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:31,255
It is too dense. OK.
403
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:33,095
I've had cakes that are
more open than that.
404
00:18:33,120 --> 00:18:35,496
I think it's just under proved.
A little bit more proving just
405
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:38,856
would've opened that up a little bit. I'm not
really getting the ginger. There's not enough of it.
406
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:41,616
You need more fruit. If you're going
to put fruit in it, put fruit in it.
407
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:44,815
Yeah. I still think
it's very delicious.
408
00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:47,296
Thank you very much, Matty. Cheers,
thank you. Ah, thanks, Matty.
409
00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:49,615
Erm, Matty, I told you to prove it
a bit longer, didn't I?
410
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:50,640
You did! Yeah...
411
00:18:52,120 --> 00:18:54,735
I think I impressed Prue a little
bit more than I did Paul.
412
00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:57,615
I'm Team Prue for now!
413
00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:00,255
I'm happy that the flavours worked.
414
00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:02,255
Yeah. It's Christmas in a bun.
415
00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:05,536
It could've gone better,
but it's fine.
416
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:07,135
We've still got the technical to do
417
00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:09,495
so hopefully I can just kind
of smash that one out.
418
00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:11,855
SCREECHES
419
00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:18,095
The bakers could practice
their spicy signature bakes,
420
00:19:18,120 --> 00:19:21,455
but the Technical Challenge is
a mystery.
421
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:23,375
It's time for your
Technical Challenge.
422
00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:26,695
This one has been set for you
by the delightful Prue.
423
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:28,655
Prue, any words of wisdom?
424
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:32,975
Yes, be bold with the botanicals.
425
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:34,575
I actually found that quite moving.
426
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:36,935
Ah, you all right?
Yeah, I'm all right, yeah.
427
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,655
Talking of moving, it's time for you
guys to move on out. Thank you.
428
00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:42,015
We're going to miss you guys.
We are.
429
00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:43,695
Prue would like you to make
430
00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:48,695
a beautifully decorated lemon
and thyme drizzle cake.
431
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:51,415
They're looking for a light moist
sponge that is soaked
432
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:53,735
with lemon and thyme syrup,
433
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:57,455
and a sprinkling of
crystalised lemon and thyme.
434
00:19:57,480 --> 00:19:58,695
How much time have we got?
435
00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:00,135
1 hour and 30.
436
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:02,095
On your marks... Get set...
437
00:20:02,120 --> 00:20:03,615
Bake!
438
00:20:06,120 --> 00:20:08,055
Oh, my God. Right.
439
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:10,375
Interesting cake!
440
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:14,055
I imagine it's going to take a bit
of time, that. No pun intended.
441
00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:18,455
Hey, this challenge will be right up your
street - you've actually come as a lemon!
442
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:19,455
Ha!
443
00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:21,775
I just want to point out at this
moment in time
444
00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:22,840
that you've come as thyme.
445
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:28,495
So, Prue, tell us all about your
lemon and thyme drizzle cake.
446
00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:31,895
It is just a cream sponge baked in
a fancy tin,
447
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:35,535
but the difference is it
has a lot of thyme in it.
448
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:38,975
What I'm worried about most is I
think the bakers won't put enough in it.
449
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:41,455
If you only put a bit in, it'll just
be a lemon drizzle cake.
450
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:43,215
I mean, obviously, they've got
the tin.
451
00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,895
If they don't grease it properly,
Paul, as you know,
452
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:47,375
that cake will stick.
453
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:49,335
Come on, I'm dribbling now.
454
00:20:49,360 --> 00:20:51,895
I need a bite.
My goodness, that's a fair slice.
455
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:53,655
That big enough? Yes.
456
00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:55,975
Ooh, yeah.
457
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:57,656
This is very moist from
the drizzle, and the lemon
458
00:20:57,680 --> 00:20:59,535
and thyme work beautifully
well together.
459
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:00,735
It is absolutely lovely.
460
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,095
Mmm. For me, it's all going to come
down to the flavour
461
00:21:03,120 --> 00:21:04,936
and the balance between
the thyme and the lemon.
462
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:06,215
Are they going to get it right?
463
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:07,895
Got to have lots of thyme.
464
00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:10,535
What's ironic is we've only given
them an hour-and-a-half.
465
00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:11,895
I know!
466
00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:16,895
Instruction number one,
"Make the cake mixture." Fabulous.
467
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:18,776
It's been so long since
I've made a sponge cake.
468
00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:21,055
I haven't made one in yonks.
469
00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:22,135
I'm creaming the butter
470
00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:24,615
and the sugar together,
adding the lemon.
471
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:25,815
Self-raising flour.
472
00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:28,495
Get that mixed in. I'm going to do
that on a low speed.
473
00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:29,855
Think this'll be enough.
474
00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:32,535
It's a light, fluffy sponge.
475
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:34,056
Have you ever made one
of these before?
476
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:36,415
I've made lemon drizzle cake.
You have?
477
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:38,455
But not with thyme.
Do you know what I mean?
478
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:40,816
Yeah, thyme for roast, not for the
cake. It's normally in food,
479
00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:41,896
isn't it? It's not
normally in a bake.
480
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:44,215
Maybe it will taste
like roast dinner.
481
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:49,176
They've told us how much lemon to
use, but they just haven't told us
482
00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:50,535
how much thyme to use.
483
00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:52,975
What I would normally do is just add
only a little.
484
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:54,375
Baker's instinct.
485
00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:57,175
Prue said be bold.
Prue, I'm with you, sister.
486
00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:00,055
Try and get the thyme really in
there, you know.
487
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:02,135
Couple of heaped tablespoons.
488
00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:06,095
I did not measure the amount of
thyme I was putting in. Risky.
489
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:08,975
It does smell strong.
490
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:10,935
I can't smell anything.
491
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:12,095
Bit more thyme.
492
00:22:12,120 --> 00:22:17,015
Just preparing the cake tin with
some butter so it doesn't stick.
493
00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:18,495
Really hard to do.
494
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:19,935
There's a risk of things catching
495
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:21,895
so obviously you want it
to come out.
496
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,815
I'm going to give it
a little dusting with some flour.
497
00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:26,375
I've put more thyme into it.
498
00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:29,935
You can easily see all the green
specks so I'm hoping it'll be fine.
499
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:32,855
Slap it down so it gets into all
those crevices.
500
00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:34,815
Get it in.
501
00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:37,135
Has she been kind with
the method and everything?
502
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,695
No. Not really. Oh, just, "Bake."
503
00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:41,055
Oh, my gosh. "Just bake it!"
504
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:47,056
It's going to take a while in the
oven, that. It's quite a big cake.
505
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:48,495
It's definitely 40 minutes.
506
00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:51,895
I'm going to set a timer
for 40 minutes.
507
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:58,735
Bakers, you are halfway through.
508
00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:00,695
HE HUMS CIRCUS MUSIC
509
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:03,735
Oh, God.
510
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:04,855
Need to get a move on.
511
00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:06,775
Make the lemon and thyme syrup.
512
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:09,615
Juice of two lemons,
sugar and thyme, right.
513
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:11,935
This is where Prue was also saying,
"Be bold."
514
00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:13,255
I'm going to give her thyme.
515
00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:15,255
I'm just going to let that infuse.
516
00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:17,175
Feel like that's ready to rock
and roll.
517
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:19,935
Number four, we crystallise
the lemon peel and thyme.
518
00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:21,375
There's an egg white in it?
519
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:23,455
Eggwhite, dip the thyme leaves in
520
00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:25,775
and then just covering it all in
sugar.
521
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:27,120
Why is there an egg white in it?!
522
00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:29,735
It looks crystallised.
523
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:33,055
I'm just going to put enough sugar
onto it and then get it to dry out.
524
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:34,535
Oh...
525
00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:38,535
Honestly, I haven't a clue if I'm
doing this the right way.
526
00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:40,295
What the hell is this?
527
00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:41,735
What is that?
528
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:43,295
LAUGHTER
529
00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:45,935
Somehow it's going to crystallise!
530
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:47,735
Is that in the recipe?
531
00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:50,935
Out of sight, out of mind.
532
00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:52,735
Saku? Yes.
533
00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:55,255
How many keepy-uppies can you do
with a lemon?
534
00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:57,055
None. None? None.
535
00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:58,655
Look, one - boom.
536
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:01,935
Ugh!
537
00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:03,135
LAUGHTER
538
00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:05,615
Any good? Amazing. See?
539
00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:09,175
Do you reckon I could hit one of
those saucepans, look, with this lemon?
540
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:10,335
No!
541
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:12,695
SHATTERING
542
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:13,720
BLEEP
543
00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:16,055
It's fine, nothing broke.
544
00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:19,335
Never a dull moment in here,
is there?
545
00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:24,455
BOTH: Bakers, you have
15 minutes left.
546
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:26,015
Oh, my goodness me.
547
00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:28,895
Nervous, I'm nervous.
I'm not doing it.
548
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:30,855
Skewer's coming out clean, so...
549
00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:32,575
Just going to go for it.
550
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:35,415
I hope it is ready.
551
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:38,975
Smells nice.
Can't smell any thyme, but...
552
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:40,655
It's definitely baked.
553
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:42,895
Ah! OK, yeah, it's coming out.
554
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:47,935
Er, little bit overdone,
but it's better to overbake it
555
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:51,375
and then cover any problems
with the syrup.
556
00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:54,575
The problem is turning it
upside down.
557
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:57,015
Oh, I'm so scared.
558
00:24:57,040 --> 00:24:58,615
Flippin' heck.
559
00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:07,735
Worst thing would be for it not
to come out.
560
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:10,040
Phew!
561
00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:13,655
Bad, bad, bad, really bad.
562
00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:17,895
Trying to find the good side.
563
00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:20,255
It looks OK. It's come out neat.
564
00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:23,735
Ahh! The bottom is ugly.
565
00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:26,095
Oh, flippin' heck.
566
00:25:26,120 --> 00:25:27,655
Bakers, you have five minutes left.
567
00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:32,655
Come on, Josh. Come on.
568
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:35,095
Number five,
soak the cake with syrup.
569
00:25:35,120 --> 00:25:36,695
Just going to give it little holes.
570
00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:38,535
Right, just get that in.
571
00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:39,895
There's not too much dripping off
572
00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:42,455
so that indicates that it is
actually going in.
573
00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:44,775
Oh, that smells like thyme.
574
00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:46,695
I think. Maybe too much.
575
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:47,975
Made my icing.
576
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:50,935
Drizzly consistency.
577
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:52,776
Just could've done with
it being a bit thicker.
578
00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:55,375
Control, control.
579
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:57,816
I just don't know what it's supposed
to look like, that's the thing.
580
00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:00,095
Bakers, you've got one minute left.
581
00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:04,335
Last bit. All right, let's
make this look pretty.
582
00:26:04,360 --> 00:26:05,815
Lemon and thyme.
583
00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:07,575
Oh, come on!
584
00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:09,295
Going to use this very sparingly.
585
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:13,575
Just going to try and
make it look nice.
586
00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:16,295
It's not that pretty,
but it's fine.
587
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:18,775
Quite rustic. That seems
to be my kind of thing.
588
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:25,415
OK, bakers, your time is up.
589
00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:28,455
Please bring your lemon and thyme
drizzle cakes
590
00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:30,335
up to the gingham table
591
00:26:30,360 --> 00:26:32,895
and place them behind
your pictures.
592
00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:43,495
My word! It was a race.
593
00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:47,215
It's judgment time for
594
00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:50,015
the bakers' lemon
and thyme drizzle cakes.
595
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:52,375
Prue and Paul are looking for
a light,
596
00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:56,335
moist, aromatic cake decorated
with glace icing
597
00:26:56,360 --> 00:26:58,735
and crystallised lemon and thyme.
598
00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,895
And they have no idea
whose is whose.
599
00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:03,175
PAUL: Interesting array.
600
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:07,455
The definition on this one is pretty
good.
601
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:09,375
It's got a strong colour. Very good.
602
00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:12,655
Icing could've been a little thicker
or not allowed to run right off.
603
00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:14,615
The crystallising looks OK,
doesn't it? Yeah.
604
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:16,455
There's a lot of drizzle.
605
00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:21,055
The texture's very good
because it's very light.
606
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:22,575
It's not got enough thyme in it.
607
00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:25,535
Moving on, little bit weird with
the colouring on this one.
608
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:27,855
See how light, dark, it's...
609
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:29,735
it's like it hasn't
been mixed properly.
610
00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:31,495
Quite an open-looking cake.
611
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:36,455
Far more lemon than thyme.
612
00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:37,575
Which I don't mind.
613
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:40,695
I quite like the sharpness of
the lemon against the hint of thyme.
614
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:42,175
Hmm, yeah. I think I'd have put
615
00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:45,215
a little bit more crystallised
lemon and thyme on top,
616
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:46,975
but it's very nice. Yeah, it is.
617
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:49,535
I like the decoration of this.
This is a thicker icing.
618
00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:53,015
There's a few little marks here,
like it's caught. It's stuck.
619
00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:55,375
Half the cake's probably
been left on the mould.
620
00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:57,975
I can tell you now there's
not enough thyme in there.
621
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:02,815
Not a lot of lemon or thyme.
622
00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:05,135
I think that texture's
a bit coarse too.
623
00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:06,775
Hmm. A bit dark, this one.
624
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:09,335
It's almost overflowed on the top.
Overflowed.
625
00:28:09,360 --> 00:28:11,775
And I really think the icing is
a bit clumsy.
626
00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:15,656
Definitely getting the
thyme and the lemon.
627
00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:16,895
A lot more thyme.
628
00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:18,775
I do think it's slightly over baked.
629
00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:21,895
The icing on this is quite neat into
the grooves as well.
630
00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:24,855
Quite clever because
the baker has put thyme in one
631
00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:27,135
and lemon in the other. Yeah.
632
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:28,295
It's very neat.
633
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:34,335
Hmm, definitely getting the thyme
and the lemon, nice balance.
634
00:28:34,360 --> 00:28:36,095
I think it's very good.
635
00:28:36,120 --> 00:28:38,615
Moving on to this one,
bit irregular on colour. Hmm.
636
00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:40,575
Darker on one side than
it is on another.
637
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:43,375
It's broken a bit here in
the mould.
638
00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:46,695
The lemon isn't properly
crystallised. No. It's very raw.
639
00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:52,815
I got more thyme than I did lemon.
640
00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:55,135
Moving on to the last one.
I like the look of this.
641
00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:56,416
Pretty neat on the baking as well.
642
00:28:56,440 --> 00:29:01,455
I like the way the icing is confined
to small ribbons down the runnels.
643
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:06,695
I can see the thyme,
but I can't really taste it.
644
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:08,096
It could have a bit more.
It could have a bit more.
645
00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:10,375
The lemon's tangy enough
and the bake's good.
646
00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:14,535
The lemon and thyme drizzle cakes
will now be ranked from last
647
00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:16,095
to first place.
648
00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:21,895
In seventh place, we have this one.
649
00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:25,415
Tasha, bit clumsy on the icing
and you had trouble with it,
650
00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:27,455
getting out of a tin, didn't you?
651
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:29,375
In sixth spot, we have this one.
652
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:31,175
This is very irregular with
the colours.
653
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:32,375
Inside, it's too pale.
654
00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:34,695
I don't know whether you had
problems with it sticking
655
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:35,535
to the tin or was it the bake?
656
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:36,975
No, I don't know! Hmm.
657
00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:39,695
Saku is in fifth place,
658
00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:42,815
Matty is fourth and Dan comes third.
659
00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:45,775
In second, we have this one.
Whose is this?
660
00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:48,495
Very nice, Josh. I like the icing,
I like the decoration,
661
00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:49,615
I love the colour.
662
00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:52,655
It needed a little bit more thyme,
but it's a nice one.
663
00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:54,015
Which means...
664
00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:58,895
Cristy, I loved your decoration,
it's very elegant.
665
00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:02,335
Lots of thyme, lots of lemon -
perfect. Thank you.
666
00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:03,495
Well done! Well done.
667
00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:07,055
Well done, bakers.
668
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:09,895
You've done so well.
Go home, have a little rest
669
00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:12,815
and we'll see you tomorrow for the
Showstopper. Well done, kids.
670
00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:16,375
I genuinely never thought I'd
get first in the Technical,
671
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,855
so, yeah, I'm over the moon! Ah!
672
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:23,335
I was hoping for a good technical,
but second to last, it's not last.
673
00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:24,975
SHE SIGHS
674
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:26,375
That was really bad.
675
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:30,895
Yeah, I can't lie, I feel
a bit sick about tomorrow.
676
00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:32,455
I'm not ready to go home.
677
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:45,295
It's botanicals week so
did anybody really shine?
678
00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:47,215
I think Cristy's in
a very strong position
679
00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:49,255
for Star Baker again this week.
680
00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:50,495
What about Tasha?
681
00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:52,175
She did not do a good Technical,
682
00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:54,935
but she did a tremendously good
Signature. She did.
683
00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:56,695
Josh is doing quite well again,
isn't he?
684
00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:59,295
Josh has done all right, which puts
him in line with Cristy,
685
00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:03,055
but the likes of Dana, Matty are in
worse trouble than the rest.
686
00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:06,095
Matty, why did he do so bad in
the Signature?
687
00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:08,695
A bit boring. There
was not enough fruit in it. OK.
688
00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:10,975
I didn't like Dana's signature.
689
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:12,495
The shapes were all wrong.
690
00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:14,855
We wanted consistency
and we just didn't get it.
691
00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:17,935
You've got to look at all of it -
texture, appearance, flavour,
692
00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:19,295
technical prowess.
693
00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:21,135
Any mistakes, you could go home.
694
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:32,655
Hello, bakers,
welcome back to the tent.
695
00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:35,015
It's time for your
Showstopper Challenge.
696
00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:36,975
The judges would like you
to bake a beautiful
697
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:39,855
and imaginative floral dessert.
698
00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:41,775
You can choose any style of dessert,
699
00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:45,175
but it must include a significant
baked element
700
00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:49,215
and you should celebrate florals
through your flavours and design.
701
00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:51,575
Floral really is the key word.
It is.
702
00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:54,255
Something you could serve at
a picnic or wear as
703
00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:55,895
a headdress at Glastonbury.
704
00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:57,575
You have four-and-a-half hours.
705
00:31:57,600 --> 00:31:59,415
On your marks... Get set...
706
00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:00,935
Bake!
707
00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:05,135
Experimenting with different
floral flavours,
708
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:07,175
not really my comfort zone.
709
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:09,775
Anything that I can mess up on,
I tend to stay clear.
710
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:13,015
When you put elderflower in,
it sounds quite, like, potiony,
711
00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:15,335
know what I mean? Harry Potter.
712
00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:19,735
So we're asking the bakers
for a layered dessert.
713
00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:23,015
We're talking jellies,
ganaches, bavarois,
714
00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:26,375
mousse, biscuits,
anything they wish,
715
00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:28,935
but we want it all to be
beautifully holding together.
716
00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:30,895
Ah, stressful.
717
00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:33,895
The overall flavour is floral.
718
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:37,815
The trouble with flowers is one
second, there's not enough flavour
719
00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:41,135
and then you go over the top
and then they taste like soap.
720
00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:42,335
Dandelion syrup.
721
00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:44,215
It should taste incredible
722
00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:48,815
and, of course, look like
a Bake Off Showstopper.
723
00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:51,655
Hello, Dan. Good morning. Tell us
about your floral Showstopper.
724
00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:53,415
It's a wild-flower meadow theme
725
00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:56,775
and then I'm doing an opera-style
floral dessert.
726
00:32:56,800 --> 00:33:00,095
When you say opera, how many layers
are you using there? Seven?
727
00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:01,575
No, four layers of joconde.
728
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:05,575
So it's opera-style. Right. Are you
using chocolate at the top?
729
00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:07,295
No, I'm putting, meadowsweet butter.
730
00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:09,255
When you say opera... Yeah.
731
00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:12,175
It's a layered dessert, how's that?
Yeah, that's it, that's better!
732
00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:16,535
Dan's wild-flower meadow layered
dessert will include joconde sponges
733
00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:17,655
flavoured with elderflower,
734
00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:19,255
a dandelion jelly pond
735
00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:22,775
with choux swans
and meadowsweet butter cream.
736
00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:25,416
Meadowsweet. |I've never heard of
that. Yeah, it's just like a local
737
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:28,495
foraged plant, sort of grows around
bogs, marshes. So you made this?
738
00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:31,335
I've made that, yeah, yeah. You made
this? Oh, it's recognisable.
739
00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:33,335
Yeah, it is, yeah. Like cat pee.
740
00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:34,455
Yeah, that's the one, yeah.
741
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:38,855
I'm very impressed that you guys
know what cat pee tastes like.
742
00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:43,975
Matty's taking his inspiration not
from wildlife...
743
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:45,296
I've got one of those shot things,
744
00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:47,815
I don't know why I didn't think
to bring it... but nightlife.
745
00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:49,095
More of a drink, innit?
746
00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:51,695
When you put elderflower in
prosecco or something like that
747
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:52,816
with some blackberries in it,
748
00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:54,775
it's a real masculine
drink I find as well,
749
00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:58,015
so people look scared
when you're drinking it.
750
00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:00,375
"I'll leave him alone."
751
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:03,055
Taking his cue from his favourite
summer tipple,
752
00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:05,695
Matty's adding elderflower
into nearly every element
753
00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:08,615
of his dessert, including his
blackberry mousse,
754
00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:12,975
lemon cremeux, Genoise sponge
and blackberry mirror glaze.
755
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:14,695
Is it true about blackberries?
756
00:34:14,720 --> 00:34:18,295
Being? The blacker the berry,
the sweeter the juice? Is it true?
757
00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:20,935
Is it true?
758
00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:24,095
You tell me!
759
00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:27,735
It's true.
760
00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:33,575
Whatever complementary flavours
the bakers are using...
761
00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:36,815
I am making cheesecake base
with ginger biscuit.
762
00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:39,135
Their florals need to be
the star of the show.
763
00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:40,815
Floral flavours are quite subtle
764
00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:44,575
so I will use more hibiscus
to bring hibiscus flavour.
765
00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:46,455
Want to get that tangy thing.
766
00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:50,135
Hibiscus will flavour the mousse
and butter cream
767
00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:53,135
of Saku's Earl Grey cheesecake,
which will sit on
768
00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:54,695
a ginger biscuit base
769
00:34:54,720 --> 00:34:58,295
and be topped with an
intricate 3D jelly flower.
770
00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:01,775
I'm really worried about the jelly
art. I don't have artistic skills.
771
00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:04,375
You say that.
You are really artistic.
772
00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:06,695
Thank you very much. Baking's art.
Are you artistic?
773
00:35:06,720 --> 00:35:07,735
Of course you are.
774
00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:09,175
Who's your favourite artist?
775
00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:13,015
Do you know Banksy? Yes, the one who
is painting, uh, buildings.
776
00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:15,335
He sent me a letter once.
777
00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:17,255
Really? Hmm. You're joking.
778
00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:19,615
It just said "stop"” in it.
Just "stop™.
779
00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:23,135
One baker who doesn't know when
780
00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:26,375
to curb their artistic
ambitions is Tasha.
781
00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:29,175
Hello, Tash. Hi, Tash.
782
00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:32,655
Tell us all about your
floral Showstopper.
783
00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:38,320
OK.
784
00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:43,415
Ten layers. Ten.
785
00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:44,975
Right, that's a bit ambitious.
786
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:47,415
OK. Here we go.
787
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:50,815
Amongst Tasha's ten layers will be
a palet Breton biscuit,
788
00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:52,615
a bavarois, two sponges,
789
00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:55,495
three different jellies
and a ruby chocolate mousse,
790
00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:58,135
all flavoured with hibiscus
or elderflower.
791
00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:01,015
These will be wrapped in
a hibiscus joconde sponge
792
00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:03,855
and topped with jelly art.
793
00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:06,575
Tasha, this is crazy.
794
00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:07,775
Have you practised this?
795
00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:11,455
If you pull it off,
it will be fantastic.
796
00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:12,975
I'm really looking forward to this.
797
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:14,015
Yeah. Thank you.
798
00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:30,375
Amongst their layers must be
a substantial baked element.
799
00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:32,935
I'm going to rattle through four
joconde sponges.
800
00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:34,255
And the bakers won't be able
801
00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:37,055
to begin assembling their
spectacular Showstoppers...
802
00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:39,135
Oh, come on, Josh.
803
00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:43,175
Until their sponges and biscuits
are baked and completely cool.
804
00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:45,975
It's like the flipping
Baking Olympics today.
805
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:48,255
Trying to get the ginger biscuit
base sorted.
806
00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:53,895
These are going in.
807
00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:59,175
That's good and spongy
so I'm happy with that.
808
00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:03,575
This is a really nice,
light trifle sponge.
809
00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:06,255
So I am doing a russe,
like Charlotte russe,
810
00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:08,296
so it's going to have sponge
fingers round the outside
811
00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:11,695
and it's going to have two sponge
layers in the actual cake as well.
812
00:37:11,720 --> 00:37:14,575
As well as his sponges,
Josh's russe will contain
813
00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:17,295
a compote, jellies and two bavarois,
814
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:18,935
flavoured with combinations of
815
00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:21,935
raspberry, rhubarb and hibiscus.
816
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:25,375
Hibiscus is one of those flowers
that I used to grow with my nan.
817
00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:26,895
We used to do competitions actually.
818
00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:28,855
We'd have hibiscus plants
in our conservatories
819
00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:31,216
and we'd see who could grow the
most hibiscus flowers on there.
820
00:37:31,240 --> 00:37:35,575
Usually, she'd get up to 12 or 15
all on at once. It's amazing.
821
00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:37,375
Dana's also using hibiscus,
822
00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:40,575
but is pairing it with
floral powerhouse, rose.
823
00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:42,336
Rose has actually got quite
a strong taste to it.
824
00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:43,935
I just want the full-on flavour.
825
00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:47,135
I don't want any criticism that
they can't taste the components.
826
00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:49,655
Rose will feature in
her raspberry bavarois
827
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:52,775
and white chocolate mousse,
which she'll complement with
828
00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:55,095
a hibiscus jelly and coconut sponge.
829
00:37:55,120 --> 00:38:00,095
Her finished dessert will sit inside
an ambitious sugar work box.
830
00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:04,015
I am just layering this up
with edible flowers
831
00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:06,655
and then I'm putting
isomalt over the top.
832
00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:09,135
I do like this. Do ya?
Yeah, I love it.
833
00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:11,496
I actually went out with a girl who
put flowers in resin. Yeah.
834
00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:13,976
It's reminding me of that. Well,
that's kind of like the inspiration
835
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:16,335
I went off. You know when you see
so many videos on TikTok
836
00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:18,856
of it all going through? Yeah. So
are you endlessly watching baking?
837
00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:20,736
Do you know what? I start off
watching baking stuff
838
00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:22,175
and then somehow I've ended up
839
00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:25,535
watching, like, shark attacks
or something like that.
840
00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:27,255
I get loads of shark stuff! Do you?
841
00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:29,615
What is it about me and you
that they went... what is it?
842
00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:31,975
"These guys are going to
love shark attacks"? Yeah!
843
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:34,935
One baker who could be heading
into deep water is Cristy,
844
00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:37,255
who's the only one to
use an intricate mould
845
00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:38,575
for her floral dessert.
846
00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:40,255
So this is my mould.
847
00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:42,615
It's risky cos it's
very textured.
848
00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:46,175
If I get it right,
the pay-off, I think, will be nice.
849
00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:47,855
It's so effective.
850
00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:50,415
Cristy's moulded entremets
will contain lemon
851
00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:52,695
and elderflower Genoise sponge,
852
00:38:52,720 --> 00:38:54,975
creme diplomat and two jellies -
853
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:56,295
strawberry and elderflower,
854
00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:57,615
and rhubarb and basil -
855
00:38:57,640 --> 00:38:58,735
all encased in a
856
00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:00,615
white chocolate ganache.
857
00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:03,175
White chocolate? Yeah.
858
00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:06,135
Does it work? You look worried.
859
00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:07,615
It's quite warm today.
860
00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:11,255
It's really hot. And you're using a
white chocolate ganache... Yeah.
861
00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:14,495
Moulded on the top. If you get
that chocolate ganache out of
862
00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:18,295
the mould intact, it'll look very
pretty. I think it sounds good.
863
00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:20,575
Good. Good luck. Thank you!
Good luck, Cristy.
864
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:28,295
Bakers, you are halfway through
this mamm-ooth challenge.
865
00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:30,655
Beautiful. No messing around.
866
00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:32,695
SHE SIGHS
867
00:39:32,720 --> 00:39:33,975
Let me just check.
868
00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:37,095
I'll take it out. Looks all right.
869
00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:38,495
Sponge fingers.
870
00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:40,975
Yeah, they're good. Very good.
871
00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:42,295
Ow.
872
00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:46,575
BLEEP
873
00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:47,935
Ahh...
874
00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:52,696
That was t'wrong thing
to do, weren't it?
875
00:39:52,720 --> 00:39:54,135
Now it's going to the fridge.
876
00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:55,815
With their baked elements cooling...
877
00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:58,415
Shouldn't be tough.
If it's tough, it's game over.
878
00:39:58,440 --> 00:39:59,815
Or being remade...
879
00:39:59,840 --> 00:40:02,055
I love making things twice, yeah.
880
00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:07,735
The bakers can finish making
the other elements of their dessert.
881
00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:10,095
I've got my strawberry
jelly started.
882
00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:11,735
But whether they're
making jellies...
883
00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:14,615
My pond jelly, that needs
two gelatine leaves going in.
884
00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:15,855
Mousses...
885
00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:18,815
Hibiscus mousse.
It needs lots of setting.
886
00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:19,935
Or custards...
887
00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:22,375
This is the elderflower cremeux.
888
00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:25,135
The amount of setting agent
will be crucial to ensure
889
00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:28,855
a melt-in-the-mouth texture
and clearly defined layers.
890
00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:31,175
Just mixed in my gelatine.
891
00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:34,095
Don't want it to taste
unpleasant, like rubber.
892
00:40:34,120 --> 00:40:35,615
It could act as a bouncy ball.
893
00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:37,576
Some of the layers are going to be
a little bit looser than
894
00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:40,095
the rest, but as well, at the
same time, I want everything,
895
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:42,375
when you cut into it,
nothing's oozing out.
896
00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:46,615
I feel like you need
another seven benches
897
00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:49,055
with all these ingredients.
What's going on?
898
00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:51,415
Why have you created
something so elaborate?
899
00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:53,695
I'm the person that I shout
at when I watch it on TV.
900
00:40:56,280 --> 00:40:57,455
As we were.
901
00:40:57,480 --> 00:40:59,335
I might do another one actually!
902
00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:05,295
Bakers, you have one hour left.
903
00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:06,455
SHE SIGHS
904
00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:10,735
Going to start building.
905
00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:13,055
Supposed to look like an
entremet so, like, layers
906
00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:14,055
so there's a lot of setting.
907
00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:15,855
Building their floral
masterpieces...
908
00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:18,455
I just need a really thin layer.
909
00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:20,415
Oh, sugar!
910
00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:22,055
Right, happy with that.
911
00:41:22,080 --> 00:41:26,455
Will require expert use of
the fridge and freezer.
912
00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:29,695
Might have to break this mould.
It's just set so firm.
913
00:41:29,720 --> 00:41:31,575
Too long at low temperatures
914
00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:33,935
and their delicate sponges
could dry out.
915
00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:35,855
Think it's frozen solid.
916
00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:39,135
But not enough time chilling,
and their jellies and creams
917
00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:43,535
could fail to set,
resulting in a sloppy mess.
918
00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:45,096
Oh, I don't want to make
a mess for everybody.
919
00:41:45,120 --> 00:41:46,855
Just basically leaked.
920
00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:49,175
That looks amazing. Yes, well...
921
00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:51,535
What are you going to do with that?
Put it in the freezer?
922
00:41:51,560 --> 00:41:53,455
You just pop that baby in
the freezer.
923
00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:56,535
Not a baby.
No-one puts baby in the freezer!
924
00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:00,975
That's a joke for
Patrick Swayze fans.
925
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:06,655
Bakers, you have half an hour left.
926
00:42:06,680 --> 00:42:08,655
Just half an hour.
927
00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:09,775
Oh, man.
928
00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:11,775
Half an hour, hopefully might just
make it.
929
00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:13,615
Right, next step, next step. Fab.
930
00:42:14,960 --> 00:42:16,895
Nice and even layers.
931
00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:19,575
It's set. I mean, I could probably
leave it in for longer.
932
00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:21,575
I don't know why I'm not.
933
00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:23,935
Could you just hold it steady
while I just peel off this?
934
00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:25,896
Yeah, course I can.
Thank you. I just need to peel this.
935
00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:28,455
Jelly just basically leaked.
It's going to crack.
936
00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:31,775
Got my cream sorted
for my choux buns.
937
00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:33,735
This is the cooled-down
mirror glaze
938
00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:36,135
so it just covers it a bit better.
939
00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:39,055
I don't know if it's set enough.
940
00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:41,655
I can feel something not good.
941
00:42:41,680 --> 00:42:43,655
Really?
SHE SIGHS
942
00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:46,735
Breathe. Trust your instincts.
943
00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:49,215
I sound like Obi-Wan now. I'm Yoda.
944
00:42:49,240 --> 00:42:51,895
It is lifting off. Hmm, trust
your instincts, young Jedi!
945
00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:53,255
Oh! Yes?
946
00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:56,775
It's broken. It's broken? It's
broken. You can fix that, can't you?
947
00:42:56,800 --> 00:42:59,655
I'm going to...
No, it's broken everywhere.
948
00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:01,055
Oh, my gosh.
949
00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:02,935
I'm going to have to redo it.
950
00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:05,935
I mean, literally, freeze it
and remake it. You can do it.
951
00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:07,295
I'm just going to have to.
952
00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:09,055
Oh, I'm going to cry my eyes out.
953
00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:11,295
OK, just breathe.
954
00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:13,895
Oh, bless her.
955
00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:16,175
Babes, don't worry.
956
00:43:16,200 --> 00:43:17,575
Babe, you've got Star Baker.
957
00:43:17,600 --> 00:43:19,295
I just... Hello? I'm really hot,
958
00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:20,495
I'm really hot. I know.
959
00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:23,135
All right, cool down, cool down.
960
00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:26,215
I'm really upset.
961
00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:33,695
Bakers, you have 15 minutes left.
962
00:43:33,720 --> 00:43:35,935
I'll be all right.
963
00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:39,095
All right, do you need any help?
964
00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:41,455
No, no, no, I'm all right.
Thank you, Dan.
965
00:43:41,480 --> 00:43:43,255
All right. I'm fine, I'm fine.
SHE SNIFFS
966
00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:46,175
Now, the next nervous task is
the jelly domes.
967
00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:47,695
I'm going to do my
jelly art in these.
968
00:43:47,720 --> 00:43:50,015
They're actually crystallisation
dishes that I'd have in
969
00:43:50,040 --> 00:43:50,935
the chemistry lab.
970
00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:52,415
I'm super nervous for this.
971
00:43:57,200 --> 00:44:00,415
Choux swans haven't turned out
as choux swans unfortunately.
972
00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:01,495
Come on.
973
00:44:01,520 --> 00:44:04,255
Oh, it's wobbling, just like jelly.
974
00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:05,375
SHE GASPS
975
00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:06,615
I don't know if it's right.
976
00:44:06,640 --> 00:44:09,175
Something might be right
with the mixture.
977
00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:11,095
Oh, my gosh,
I can't even look at that.
978
00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:13,415
When I did this in practice,
it collapsed.
979
00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:14,655
SHE GASPS
980
00:44:14,680 --> 00:44:17,015
I screwed up the first jelly
so I need to do another one.
981
00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:18,855
This is not good.
982
00:44:18,880 --> 00:44:21,215
Wouldn't really imagine that
I'd be standing here talking
983
00:44:21,240 --> 00:44:24,055
to you while you make delicate
pink rose flowers.
984
00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:25,935
No, at the turn of the year,
985
00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:27,695
I didn't think this would
be a thing either.
986
00:44:27,720 --> 00:44:29,295
Nothing's going to set...
987
00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:32,935
It's just not...
988
00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:36,215
It's just too...
It's just too, erm... Oh...
989
00:44:36,240 --> 00:44:39,015
I'm just trying to think of this
gap. Yeah. Is that stuck on already?
990
00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:41,295
Oh. See, now that's cracked. Yeah.
991
00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:42,415
SHE GASPS
992
00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:44,215
Holy mackerel. Oh, my God.
993
00:44:44,240 --> 00:44:45,895
I'm going to take the top off.
994
00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:48,335
This is such a disaster. Oh...
995
00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:49,735
How long have we got left?
996
00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:53,255
BOTH: Bakers, you have five minutes
left.
997
00:44:53,280 --> 00:44:55,135
Need to dig deep now, gear six.
998
00:44:57,240 --> 00:44:59,775
Oh, my goodness me, perfection.
999
00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:02,935
Can't have 'em eating this.
They can't...
1000
00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:07,695
HE SIGHS
Right, I'm going to slide it.
1001
00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:11,295
Gentle, gentle movements.
1002
00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:14,776
This is where you could with being
1003
00:45:14,800 --> 00:45:16,655
artistic and I am far from.
1004
00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:18,615
Just going to have to risk it,
aren't we?
1005
00:45:18,640 --> 00:45:21,415
Please don't split, please don't
split, please don't split.
1006
00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:22,815
Oh, my God.
1007
00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:24,775
Don't know if it's going to slide.
1008
00:45:24,800 --> 00:45:25,935
Oh, dear.
1009
00:45:25,960 --> 00:45:27,535
I don't have steady hands.
1010
00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:29,815
Oh, I broke it.
1011
00:45:29,840 --> 00:45:31,895
SHE MOANS
1012
00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:36,375
Bakers, you have one minute left.
One minute.
1013
00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:39,375
I'm just going to try...
Don't break.
1014
00:45:40,680 --> 00:45:42,375
I just can't believe it.
1015
00:45:42,400 --> 00:45:44,295
SHE EXHALES
1016
00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:45,615
I've got something out.
1017
00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:47,215
That's great! You did it!
1018
00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:51,095
It's better than it was, isn't it?
1019
00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:52,415
Come on, Josh.
1020
00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:55,015
Oh, I just feel like
the top looks a bit cack.
1021
00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:56,295
OK, just breathe.
1022
00:45:56,320 --> 00:45:58,615
I feel like if it moves,
it's going to break.
1023
00:45:58,640 --> 00:45:59,855
I don't know what I could do.
1024
00:45:59,880 --> 00:46:01,615
Anything I do now'd
just look random.
1025
00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:04,255
It looks beautiful,
but I broke a little bit.
1026
00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:05,615
Oh, my God.
1027
00:46:07,320 --> 00:46:10,295
Bakers, your time is up.
1028
00:46:11,640 --> 00:46:13,935
Please step away from
your Showstoppers.
1029
00:46:18,760 --> 00:46:19,895
Just don't think...
1030
00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:21,815
It just looks a bit like...
I don't know.
1031
00:46:21,840 --> 00:46:23,495
The whole thing bloody cracked
1032
00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:26,095
and I got it done in, like, two
minutes to go. No, it's fine.
1033
00:46:35,880 --> 00:46:38,575
It's time for the bakers'
show-stopping floral desserts
1034
00:46:38,600 --> 00:46:40,295
to face judgment.
1035
00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:43,335
Tasha, would you like to bring up
your Showstopper, please?
1036
00:46:53,320 --> 00:46:55,615
I love the look of this.
It's so professional,
1037
00:46:55,640 --> 00:46:57,255
I love the jelly on the top.
1038
00:46:57,280 --> 00:46:59,015
The line down there's not the best
thing,
1039
00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:00,256
but you're always going to get that
1040
00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:01,656
and there's always going to be a
break.
1041
00:47:01,680 --> 00:47:04,495
And there's occasionally a bit of
jelly runs out. A bit of leakage.
1042
00:47:04,520 --> 00:47:05,575
Yeah.
1043
00:47:05,600 --> 00:47:08,255
That jelly looks lovely.
It doesn't look too rubbery.
1044
00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:11,575
It looks really as if it's
collapsing, which is lovely.
1045
00:47:11,600 --> 00:47:13,015
Wow.
1046
00:47:17,360 --> 00:47:20,055
Hmm, it's absolutely heavenly.
1047
00:47:21,520 --> 00:47:24,575
Raspberry and hibiscus - you know,
that is the most delicious flavour.
1048
00:47:24,600 --> 00:47:25,975
Really good elderflower.
1049
00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:28,335
The bitterness that you initially
get probably from
1050
00:47:28,360 --> 00:47:30,336
the hibiscus balances beautifully
with everything else.
1051
00:47:30,360 --> 00:47:32,176
If you can manage to
fit it all in your mouth -
1052
00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:35,175
and fortunately I have a large
mouth - it means you get all
1053
00:47:35,200 --> 00:47:37,535
the flavours together, which is what
you wanted to achieve,
1054
00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:39,856
and you end up with something
that's beautiful so well done.
1055
00:47:39,880 --> 00:47:41,735
It's a triumph. Well done, Tasha.
1056
00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:42,815
Thank you.
1057
00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:50,175
It's very pretty.
1058
00:47:50,200 --> 00:47:52,735
It's very Bake Off in the
sense of it's very pastel,
1059
00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:54,815
which suits the tent beautifully.
1060
00:47:54,840 --> 00:47:57,975
Your flowers and your jelly work is
really beautiful.
1061
00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:03,455
Distinctive lines,
distinctive colour.
1062
00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:04,695
Very good texture.
1063
00:48:04,720 --> 00:48:06,415
Just set, which is what you want.
1064
00:48:06,440 --> 00:48:07,695
Thank you.
1065
00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:14,335
The ginger is the
overwhelming flavour.
1066
00:48:14,360 --> 00:48:17,295
I'm not getting much
flavour in anything else.
1067
00:48:17,320 --> 00:48:19,655
I mean, I'm hunting for anything.
1068
00:48:19,680 --> 00:48:20,975
Is this raspberry?
1069
00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:23,375
That is hibiscus.
1070
00:48:23,400 --> 00:48:24,855
Hmm. Hmm.
1071
00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:28,255
It's so mild. You need to
carry a big punch in this
1072
00:48:28,280 --> 00:48:29,455
to make it work. OK.
1073
00:48:29,480 --> 00:48:33,815
All your textures are spot-on,
but your flavours are lacking.
1074
00:48:33,840 --> 00:48:35,335
I'm so sorry.
1075
00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:37,655
Thank you, Saku. Thank you, Saku.
1076
00:48:43,720 --> 00:48:46,015
It's certainly imaginative!
1077
00:48:46,040 --> 00:48:48,695
It left the edges exposed,
which I quite like cos that...
1078
00:48:48,720 --> 00:48:51,375
Oh, do you? I think that's where
you are, like an opera cake.
1079
00:48:51,400 --> 00:48:52,935
Very nice, even layers.
1080
00:48:58,520 --> 00:48:59,695
I never thought I'd say this,
1081
00:48:59,720 --> 00:49:02,455
but I think there's actually
too much floral.
1082
00:49:02,480 --> 00:49:04,775
OK. It's very perfumed.
1083
00:49:04,800 --> 00:49:07,415
It's mostly elderflower that's
the strongest, isn't it? Yeah.
1084
00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:08,815
Hmm, that's really sharp.
1085
00:49:08,840 --> 00:49:10,375
Probably too sharp for what this is.
1086
00:49:10,400 --> 00:49:11,576
I get the meadowsweet as well.
1087
00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:13,895
It's a bit like freshly cut grass,
you know? Yeah.
1088
00:49:13,920 --> 00:49:15,295
It's got that flavour.
1089
00:49:15,320 --> 00:49:19,775
There is certainly a strong
botanical feel to this,
1090
00:49:19,800 --> 00:49:22,135
which is what we wanted.
Very good choux too.
1091
00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:24,535
Yeah, well done. Overall, I
think you've done a decent job.
1092
00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:25,975
Brilliant, thank you. Thank you.
1093
00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:28,255
Thank you very much, cheers.
Well done, Dan.
1094
00:49:32,960 --> 00:49:35,255
Whether it's a Showstopper,
I'm not sure.
1095
00:49:35,280 --> 00:49:36,455
Yeah. I'm not so sure.
1096
00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:38,815
The flowers actually would've been
better if you'd done
1097
00:49:38,840 --> 00:49:41,335
a pile and then sort
of cascaded it down.
1098
00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:44,015
Yeah, they're a little
like soldiers in a row.
1099
00:49:44,040 --> 00:49:47,255
Let's have a look and see
what it's like inside.
1100
00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:48,975
Aha.
1101
00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:50,855
Ooh!
1102
00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:53,535
You've got your layers
nicely separated.
1103
00:49:59,040 --> 00:50:01,735
Yeah, the lemon, has that got
elderflower with it as well?
1104
00:50:01,760 --> 00:50:03,055
Yeah. It's not very strong.
1105
00:50:03,080 --> 00:50:05,375
It doesn't quite meet
the botanical brief.
1106
00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:07,135
One feels it's a lemon cake.
1107
00:50:07,160 --> 00:50:10,695
I think your custard layer is too
stodgy and a bit rubbery.
1108
00:50:10,720 --> 00:50:11,815
It's very rubbery.
1109
00:50:11,840 --> 00:50:14,375
It is delicious,
but it isn't a Showstopper.
1110
00:50:14,400 --> 00:50:16,335
Thank you. Thank you. Cheers.
1111
00:50:16,360 --> 00:50:18,615
Well done, Matty. Well done, Matty.
Thank you.
1112
00:50:29,760 --> 00:50:32,655
It's beautiful. It looks great.
1113
00:50:32,680 --> 00:50:35,615
Oh, thank you. It has split, that's
the only thing on the outside.
1114
00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:36,775
It does look very pretty.
1115
00:50:36,800 --> 00:50:38,175
I love the work here on the top.
1116
00:50:38,200 --> 00:50:40,615
Very skilful injecting.
1117
00:50:40,640 --> 00:50:42,895
Come on, come on. Wobble, wobble.
1118
00:50:42,920 --> 00:50:44,215
Look at that.
1119
00:50:49,080 --> 00:50:51,415
The setting of this is spot-on.
1120
00:50:51,440 --> 00:50:54,055
You've managed to get each of
the layers there without too much
1121
00:50:54,080 --> 00:50:57,815
rubber in each layer so they've held
together, just about.
1122
00:50:57,840 --> 00:50:59,335
The flavours are spot-on.
1123
00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:01,695
And I think the compote
is beautiful.
1124
00:51:01,720 --> 00:51:03,536
Great flavours, great textures,
great overall look.
1125
00:51:03,560 --> 00:51:05,895
Shame it's split, but...
Just needed a ribbon.
1126
00:51:05,920 --> 00:51:07,736
I think, overall, you've done
a great job. Well done.
1127
00:51:07,760 --> 00:51:08,855
Lovely. Thank you.
1128
00:51:16,520 --> 00:51:18,495
Well, Dana, you've certainly got
something of
1129
00:51:18,520 --> 00:51:20,975
a Showstopper just in the box.
1130
00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:23,415
It looks amazing. All those flowers
are beautifully done,
1131
00:51:23,440 --> 00:51:25,735
but the main thing is the dessert.
1132
00:51:25,760 --> 00:51:28,375
Let's have a quick
look inside this.
1133
00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:29,535
Oh, wow.
1134
00:51:29,560 --> 00:51:31,415
Wow, look at those.
1135
00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:33,255
Pretty stark colours, them.
1136
00:51:37,280 --> 00:51:39,575
I'm not sure I'm getting the floral.
1137
00:51:39,600 --> 00:51:42,415
OK. Not getting the rose.
A bit of a hibiscus. Hmm.
1138
00:51:42,440 --> 00:51:45,455
The raspberry comes through
more than the hibiscus.
1139
00:51:45,480 --> 00:51:46,575
Hibiscus. Yeah.
1140
00:51:46,600 --> 00:51:49,056
The sponge has dried out like it's
been sitting there for three days...
1141
00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:51,496
Mm-hm... because you've been putting
that in the fridge for so long.
1142
00:51:51,520 --> 00:51:54,895
The cake is pretty solid
and the layers are too thick.
1143
00:51:54,920 --> 00:51:57,295
Overall, your appearance
is exceptional,
1144
00:51:57,320 --> 00:51:58,935
but is it style above substance?
1145
00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:00,135
Thank you.
1146
00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:11,015
Be honest, I... It was all going
well, everything was set...
1147
00:52:11,040 --> 00:52:12,615
Stop. OK.
1148
00:52:12,640 --> 00:52:14,456
I think it's quite effective.
I like the colour.
1149
00:52:14,480 --> 00:52:17,415
These are quite nice.
There's a couple of little splodges.
1150
00:52:23,800 --> 00:52:25,216
Obviously you've had issues with it.
1151
00:52:25,240 --> 00:52:26,535
I am getting strong strawberry
1152
00:52:26,560 --> 00:52:29,176
and I am getting a decent amount
of tang coming from the elderflower,
1153
00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:31,935
which is your saving grace because
then it makes it floral.
1154
00:52:31,960 --> 00:52:33,495
The sponge is all right as well.
1155
00:52:33,520 --> 00:52:36,295
Setting, it's just a little bit
messy, that's all. OK.
1156
00:52:36,320 --> 00:52:37,535
I feel really sorry for you
1157
00:52:37,560 --> 00:52:40,695
because you were obviously nearly
into something perfect,
1158
00:52:40,720 --> 00:52:42,495
but I think with
your second attempt,
1159
00:52:42,520 --> 00:52:44,975
your chocolate ganache is
too much and too thick,
1160
00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:47,295
and the layers are
a bit all over the place,
1161
00:52:47,320 --> 00:52:48,975
but it's still very delicious.
1162
00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:51,295
Thank God, it's over!
1163
00:52:51,320 --> 00:52:53,175
I've seen people throw stuff in
the bin before.
1164
00:52:53,200 --> 00:52:55,815
I was determined I wasn't
going to be one of 'em!
1165
00:52:58,760 --> 00:52:59,895
I'm relieved.
1166
00:52:59,920 --> 00:53:04,535
I'll take that any day over what
could've been an absolute nightmare.
1167
00:53:04,560 --> 00:53:06,895
I do think I'm in
the bottom side of things,
1168
00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:09,215
but even if some of
the inside fillings weren't
1169
00:53:09,240 --> 00:53:11,575
the best, I'm beyond proud of it.
1170
00:53:11,600 --> 00:53:15,255
I fell right at the last hurdle in
terms of making it look like
1171
00:53:15,280 --> 00:53:17,215
the Showstopper it was meant to be.
1172
00:53:17,240 --> 00:53:20,415
They couldn't taste anything.
1173
00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:23,815
Look at my face for the last time -
I'm going home tonight.
1174
00:53:33,400 --> 00:53:34,935
So, Prue and Paul,
1175
00:53:34,960 --> 00:53:37,295
botanicals week - how do you think
it went?
1176
00:53:37,320 --> 00:53:39,775
Surprisingly well.
It's actually been quite successful.
1177
00:53:39,800 --> 00:53:41,815
I think the bakes have all been
pretty good
1178
00:53:41,840 --> 00:53:44,695
so when it comes to judging, it
comes down to little things.
1179
00:53:44,720 --> 00:53:46,255
Who were the stand-out people
for you?
1180
00:53:46,280 --> 00:53:49,495
Josh - the textures were right, the
flavours were terrific, the whole
1181
00:53:49,520 --> 00:53:52,335
thing was quite imaginative and
it was beautifully executed. Hmm.
1182
00:53:52,360 --> 00:53:54,695
I have to say, I was blown away
by Tasha.
1183
00:53:54,720 --> 00:53:57,055
I think Tasha started well this
week actually.
1184
00:53:57,080 --> 00:53:58,256
She didn't do too well in the
technical,
1185
00:53:58,280 --> 00:54:01,415
she was seventh, but she has bounced
back in a big way today
1186
00:54:01,440 --> 00:54:03,855
so it puts her in line
for Star Baker as well.
1187
00:54:03,880 --> 00:54:06,775
And then you look at Cristy - she
had a bit of a mess-up with this,
1188
00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:09,095
but, nevertheless, it did taste good
and it looked good.
1189
00:54:09,120 --> 00:54:10,415
At least she carried on.
1190
00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:12,095
Exactly, she never gave up.
I love that.
1191
00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:13,415
I think three people struggled.
1192
00:54:13,440 --> 00:54:14,695
I think Matty struggled.
1193
00:54:14,720 --> 00:54:17,055
It wasn't quite polished enough
and finished,
1194
00:54:17,080 --> 00:54:18,896
and a little bit simple,
but then you look at Dana.
1195
00:54:18,920 --> 00:54:20,335
I mean, the box was OK...
1196
00:54:20,360 --> 00:54:21,615
I thought it was amazing.
1197
00:54:21,640 --> 00:54:24,575
It was a Showstopper, but then the
dessert inside had to be perfect.
1198
00:54:24,600 --> 00:54:25,895
Is what it was all about, yeah.
1199
00:54:25,920 --> 00:54:28,215
The cake was too thick, a bit dry.
1200
00:54:28,240 --> 00:54:30,055
Yeah. And then Saku.
1201
00:54:30,080 --> 00:54:32,815
Hardly any flavour. Such a shame,
isn't it? Oh, heartbreaking.
1202
00:54:32,840 --> 00:54:34,816
But that's not like her either,
which is strange. No. No.
1203
00:54:34,840 --> 00:54:36,456
No. I think it's going
to be really tight,
1204
00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:38,135
whoever we choose to go home today.
1205
00:54:38,160 --> 00:54:39,775
It's only one today though,
isn't it?
1206
00:54:39,800 --> 00:54:41,375
Yeah, only one today.
1207
00:54:41,400 --> 00:54:43,695
Paul wants to send
three people home!
1208
00:54:43,720 --> 00:54:48,695
LAUGHTER
1209
00:54:49,760 --> 00:54:52,895
Well done, bakers. You did
fantastic in botanicals week.
1210
00:54:52,920 --> 00:54:56,775
I've got the great job this
week of announcing Star Baker.
1211
00:54:56,800 --> 00:54:59,855
And this week's Star Baker is...
1212
00:55:08,480 --> 00:55:09,575
.Josh.
1213
00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:19,175
And unfortunately,
I've got the job that no-one wants
1214
00:55:19,200 --> 00:55:20,455
and I've got to say,
1215
00:55:20,480 --> 00:55:24,855
this has been one of the hardest
decisions of the competition so far.
1216
00:55:24,880 --> 00:55:29,175
So, the baker leaving
the tent today is...
1217
00:55:36,520 --> 00:55:37,855
Dana.
1218
00:55:43,880 --> 00:55:45,495
Thank you.
1219
00:55:45,520 --> 00:55:48,215
Sorry, Dana. No, it's OK.
It was not your week.
1220
00:55:48,240 --> 00:55:50,575
I feel like I've smashed it.
Week six.
1221
00:55:50,600 --> 00:55:52,216
Dana, you've been amazing.
Oh, thanks, pal.
1222
00:55:52,240 --> 00:55:53,575
I'm going to miss you so much.
1223
00:55:53,600 --> 00:55:56,295
I'm just kind of thinking of all
the fun that I've had throughout
1224
00:55:56,320 --> 00:55:58,816
the whole six weeks and that's
what I'm going to be remembering.
1225
00:55:58,840 --> 00:56:00,655
Oh, my God, Josh, well done.
1226
00:56:00,680 --> 00:56:02,015
You did so, so well,
1227
00:56:03,160 --> 00:56:05,415
I don't even know what to say.
It's incredible.
1228
00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:08,455
Yeah. I can't wait to tell my mum.
1229
00:56:08,480 --> 00:56:09,975
Well done, pal. You deserve that.
1230
00:56:10,000 --> 00:56:11,975
You've been knocking on
the door for it. Crazy.
1231
00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:13,375
Well done, pal. Well done.
1232
00:56:13,400 --> 00:56:15,735
I've got some news to
share with you. Yeah?
1233
00:56:15,760 --> 00:56:18,015
I'm Star Baker for this week.
1234
00:56:18,040 --> 00:56:19,335
Yes!
1235
00:56:19,360 --> 00:56:21,855
SHE CHEERS AND LAUGHS
1236
00:56:21,880 --> 00:56:23,055
Oh, thank you so much.
1237
00:56:24,560 --> 00:56:26,375
Through, yeah.
1238
00:56:26,400 --> 00:56:30,055
Probably a little bit by the
skin of the teeth... but through.
1239
00:56:33,840 --> 00:56:35,655
Phew.
1240
00:56:35,680 --> 00:56:40,015
And now I'm going to have to ask
for annual leave from my manager.
1241
00:56:40,040 --> 00:56:41,535
That's my worry!
1242
00:56:41,560 --> 00:56:46,015
Tomorrow morning, email,
"Charlotte, I want more time off."
1243
00:56:46,040 --> 00:56:47,535
Charlotte will climb walls!
1244
00:56:49,520 --> 00:56:51,575
Next time, it's dessert week...
1245
00:56:51,600 --> 00:56:54,775
I'm pooing myself... and the bakers
face a wobbly Signature Bake...
1246
00:56:54,800 --> 00:56:56,135
It's jiggly. She's jiggly.
1247
00:56:56,160 --> 00:56:59,015
The sloppiest technical
the tent has ever seen...
1248
00:56:59,040 --> 00:57:01,375
My gosh, they can't eat this.
They're going to get ill.
1249
00:57:01,400 --> 00:57:03,695
And it's bombs away
in the Showstopper.
1250
00:57:03,720 --> 00:57:05,255
It lives up to its name of a bomb.
1251
00:57:05,280 --> 00:57:08,895
Who will be the queen
or the king of puddings?
1252
00:57:08,920 --> 00:57:10,735
That is a proper dessert inside.
1253
00:57:10,760 --> 00:57:13,975
And who will get
their just deserts?
1254
00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:15,935
Oh, my gosh, what have I done?
1255
00:57:15,960 --> 00:57:17,375
This is a car crash!
1256
00:57:38,440 --> 00:57:41,415
