Episode 2: Biscuits

For the Signature Challenge, the bakers were given 2+1⁄2 hours to make twenty-four iced biscuits (cookies). The biscuits had to be crisp and uniform. Viennese Whirls were set as the technical challenge. To be completed in 1+1⁄2 hours, they had to be filled with buttercream and jam, and had have a defined shape. For the showstopper, a gingerbread scene was set as the challenge, the only brief being it that it had to be 30 cm (12 in) high, and contain eight characters or objects. The bakers had four hours for this challenge.

For the technical challenge, the bakers were required to make twelve Dampfnudel, a recipe Paul Hollywood called "notoriously difficult". In two hours, the bakers had to make 12 steamed bread rolls with two types of sauce. A savoury plaited (braided) centrepiece was set as the showstopper, to be created using at least three different flours, in four hours.

Episode 4: Batter

The first task was to make Yorkshire puddings in two hours. The bakers used the standard recipe filled with a variety of savory ingredients and flavors. The technical challenge gave the bakers one hour to make twelve heart-shaped "lace" pancakes, which required them to draw a heart-shaped design with the batter. They were only allowed one practice pancake. The showstopper challenge was to make thirty-six sweet churros in three hours.

Episode 5: Pastry

For the signature bake, bakers were tasked with baking twenty-four breakfast pastries, using two different batches of dough (total twelve each) in 3+1⁄2 hours. The technical challenge required the bakers to make one feathered Bakewell tart in 2+1⁄2 hours. For the showstopper challenge, the bakers were challenged to make forty-eight filled filo amuse-bouche; twenty-four with a savoury filling and twenty-four with a sweet filling, in four hours.

In the signature, the seven remaining bakers were asked to create a meringue pie containing citrus fruit, such as orange, grapefruits and lemons, in two hours. In the technical, the contestants had to create two leaf-shaped herb fougasses in hours.[ specify ] In the showstopper, the contestants were asked to create a three-tier cake with a flower theme. All the tiers could be the same flavour, or each with a different flavour, and the cakes could be decorated with flowers, all to be done in hours.[ specify ]

Episode 7: Desserts

The Signature challenge required the bakers to make a family-sized roulade in 1+1⁄2 hours. The judges were looking for a light sponge cake, even layers of filling, and a clean swirl.

The showstopper challenge allocated four hours for the bakers to make twenty-four mini mousse cakes in two flavours (twelve of each). [26] [27]

Episode 8: Tudor (Quarterfinals)

Week eight featured the show's first Tudor theme, featuring food common in the 16th century.

In the technical, the contestants were asked to produce twelve jumbles—six knot balls and six Celtic knots—in 1+1⁄2 hours. In the showstopper challenge, the contestants were asked to bake a marchpane (marzipan) cake in a three-dimensional shape in 3+1⁄2 hours. However, all of the cakes had to be Tudor-themed. [28]

Episode 10: Royal Picnic (Final)

In the final signature challenge, the bakers had to make a filled meringue crown, which had to contain at least three layers of meringue, in three hours. In the technical, the judges decided to make a familiar bake challenging: the bakers had to make a Victoria sandwich, with no recipe or method given, in 1+1⁄2 hours. The final showstopper involved the largest number of bakes ever requested in a challenge. The bakers were given five hours to make a picnic fit for the Queen, including one chocolate celebration cake, twelve sausage rolls, twelve mini quiches, twelve savoury scones and twelve fruit and custard tarts. [31] [32]

Christmas specials

The Masterclass episodes were replaced by two Christmas specials, which featured eight contestants from the series 2–5. The two Christmas specials were the last to be aired on BBC before the channel move, and thus featured the last appearances of hosts Mel Giedroyc and Sue Perkins and judge Mary Berry. Judge Paul Hollywood then followed the channel move. [33]

Controversies

Before the series had begun, some viewers complained of the "gendered" icing in preview pictures of the bakers. In the promo shots of the bakers, the male bakers were given blue icing while the female bakers were given pink icing, whereas the previous year, every baker was given the same colour regardless. [34] [35] [36] As a result, the BBC altered the colouring of the icing. [37]
