The Great British Baking Show - Season 10 (2019)

Prue and Paul set some tricky challenges for the remaining bakers, including a Technical that dates back to Henry VIII and a Showstopper that's usually found at Indian weddings.

Contestants must create confectionery inspired by the Roaring Twenties.

It's Dessert week. Three sweet challenges mean a bitter end for one of the six remaining bakers as they battle for a place in the quarterfinal. For starters, the bakers face a sweetly-filled signature challenge that has them rolling out their skills to impress Prue and Paul. And, if that weren't enough, the technical challenge is one of the toughest of the series so far, which layers on the sweet pressure the bakers are tested on a tricky French dessert. And finally, there's a multi-bake mini showstopper that's a bit of a mousse marathon.

This week is all about celebrating as it's festival week. For the signature, the bakers are required to make twenty-four festival buns apiece, they need to be yeast raised and meant to celebrate something, whether it be a holiday or something else. And in setting the technical this week, Paul wants a perfect texture both inside and out in the bakers making twelve Sicilian casatelle apiece, they a ricotta-filled, fried pastry. The bakers then move half way around the world to Malaysia via Indonesia for the showstopper in each making a kek lapis sarawak, a multi-colored...

It's technically the quarter-finals, and rather than be happy, most of the remaining bakers are apprehensive in knowing that pastry, this week's theme, is not their strong suit, especially in dealing with the finicky dough, which does not like heat when being prepared, this weekend in which a heatwave is passing through. For the showstopper, they are each required to make a tarte tatin with a rough or full puff pastry, but unlike the traditional which is sweet made with apples, their tarts must be savory. A major challenge is for the filling to have the correct ...

In this, the semi-finals, the remaining four know that it will be one of the most demanding weeks in the precision that is required for patisserie in all its French elegance. For the signature, they are asked to make eight domed tartlets apiece fit for a French patisserie's window display. For the technical, they are each required to make the multi-component Gâteau Saint Honoré, which is caramel covered cream filled profiteroles, all atop a puff pastry base. And for the showstopper, they are asked to make a sugar glass display case enclosing a figure that has some ...

It's the finals, and the last three of the original bakers' dozen standing are David Atherton, Steph Blackwell and Alice Fevronia, whose friends and family, as well as the season's eliminated bakers, will be on hand to see the crowning of this season's winner at the conclusion of the last three bakes. For the signature, the bakers are given the seemingly easy task of making a chocolate cake, the trick being to make theirs stand out from the regular. They are even more apprehensive than usual for the technical as there is no theme this week, meaning that the judges could throw anything at them. What is thrown ...
