It's Bread Week and the bakers take on a savoury Signature, an instructionless Technical and Horns of Plenty. Who'll rise to the occasion, and who will knead to dust themselves off?
It's Caramel Week and the bakers make irresistible caramel biscuits and turn up the heat with showstopping mousse cakes. Who gets a taste of sweet success, and whose mousse cuts them loose?
It's Pastry Week and the bakers tackle a frangipane tart and Paris-Brest, complete with a freestanding podium. Who'll be put on a pedestal, and whose dreams will flake away?

It's the semi-final and the bakers show off their patisserie prowess with breakfast pastries and a classic-but-theatrical Technical. Who'll make final-worthy fruit entremets?
