Thank you so much. 455 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:38,000 Texture of it's lovely. Great flavour. 456 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:40,040 You couldn't eat a lot of it, because it is so rich. 457 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:41,800 The cocoa content's quite high. Yes. 458 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:44,320 My husband would find this far too much chocolate. 459 00:21:44,360 --> 00:21:46,640 He'd like a milk chocolate. Oh! Oh, for heaven's sake. 460 00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:48,280 He likes adulterated chocolate. 461 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:50,520 This is pure...

Come on, let's go, Paul, let's go. 465 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:05,040 It's like a Dickens novel. 466 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:08,680 There's a sort of fold in there, 467 00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:10,000 not a swirl. 468 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:11,800 The bitterness from the sugar is perfect. 469 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:14,960 And the passion fruit is absolutely delicious. 470 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:16,720 Is it so worth the calories. 471 00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:18,160 That is wonderful. 472 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,040 They are a bit uneven. 473 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:24,360 I think they're a little bit drunk. 474 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:28,080 I don't think that's a swirl. No. It's a blob. 475 00:22:28,120 --> 00:22:30,280 Cherry's not strong enough, cos it blended so much 476 00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:31,800 with a little bit of coffee in there. 477 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:34,000 Nice lot of booze, though. I like the booze. 478 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,880 Not much of a mini roll. You know, it's not at all bad, 479 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:43,200 because you have got a bit of a swirl. Thank you. 480 00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:45,560 The texture of the cake is lovely. Thank you very much. 481 00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:47,600 But you're not getting enough of the cherry coming through. 482 00:22:50,120 --> 00:22:52,640 They're pretty neat. I think they look rather attractive. 483 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:54,960 Oh! Let's see what they look like inside, shall we? 484 00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:56,360 Don't want to look. 485 00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:58,520 There's not much of a swirl in there, is there? 486 00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:00,600 There's like an abstract swirl. 487 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:03,920 I think maybe the cream kind of hides the swirl. 488 00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:05,600 I have to tell you it's delicious. 489 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:08,680 Oh! I think you've got a great blend of the spices, 490 00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:11,200 but more so the cardamom and the coconut together 491 00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:12,960 work beautifully well. 492 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,480 My only complaint is there's a touch too much jaggery. 493 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:17,400 OK. It's too sweet. 494 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:19,480 That's absolutely fine. I'll take that. 495 00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:24,440 Too hot. Bad timing. 496 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:26,840 Rushing. Maybe a bit of panic, as well. 497 00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:28,120 Hm. 498 00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:30,200 It's pudding. 499 00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:32,360 It's not cake. It's still warm. 500 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:35,960 And the whole thing's collapsed, because you put a massive amount of chocolate. 501 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,840 There's a famous saying in Cyprus which you will probably be 502 00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:40,880 more than aware of - siga, siga. Yeah. 503 00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:43,120 What does that mean? Slowly, slowly. 504 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:44,280 Yeah. Slowly, slowly. 505 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:48,760 You've got a fairly good swirl. 506 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:51,840 I think the flavours are lovely. It is a little stodgy. 507 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:54,680 Even with spelt in, you've managed to over-mix it. 508 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:56,920 Oh, OK. And so it's too rubbery. 509 00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:03,320 There was a bit of a wind in the forest. The forest suffered a storm. 510 00:24:03,360 --> 00:24:05,440 The Black Forest is not entirely healthy. 511 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:09,040 A nice bit of a swirl in there. 512 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:15,960 You haven't over-sweetened the filling, 513 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,520 so you get that sour cherry. You're from the Black Forest? 514 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:19,560 Yes. 515 00:24:21,120 --> 00:24:22,680 Try some. 516 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:27,080 What do you think? I would buy it. Why? 517 00:24:27,120 --> 00:24:29,640 The balance between cream, chocolate is right. 518 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:32,800 And you have enough sour cherry, and not sweet. 519 00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:34,640 I agree. I agree entirely. Thank you. 520 00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:36,840 Just needs to be neater. Just judge your own cake. 521 00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:39,680 It's very, very good. Well done. Thank you very much. Well done. 522 00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:41,200 I'm going to eat a bit. 523 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:45,080 Black Forest from the Black Forest. 524 00:24:45,120 --> 00:24:46,120 Mmm. 525 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:50,400 I'm full of admiration for you, 526 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:53,040 because on the few occasions that I've tried to use aquafaba 527 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:55,960 instead of egg whites, it takes ages. Oh, yeah. 528 00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:59,200 It is a bit of a faff, isn't it, really? 529 00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:00,760 I mean... 530 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:02,880 Well, let's see if it is worth it, shall we? 531 00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:07,600 I like the nice tart flavour of the raspberries. 532 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:10,200 And you've got a little hint of lemon in there, as well. 533 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:11,960 The cake is a little bit hefty. 534 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,440 That's got a lovely swirl in that one. Thank you. 535 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:21,960 I like the fact that the sponge is a little thicker because it 536 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:25,600 means it's risen more and the fresh strawberries are just delicious. 537 00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:35,640 They're giraffe-patterned, giraffe-esque. 538 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:38,240 And, er, we could even go as far to say 539 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:41,520 the caramel drips are, you know, like the sea lion bit. 540 00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:43,480 Water. 541 00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:46,600 Not the best-looking mini rolls I've seen. 542 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:48,680 There was obviously a rush. 543 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:51,320 The cream and the caramel's run out because it's been warm 544 00:25:51,360 --> 00:25:53,720 when you've done it. Then, your flavours are all wrong. 545 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:55,000 It's down to the timing. 546 00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:57,440 And I bet you did better when you were practising. 547 00:25:57,480 --> 00:25:59,920 Yeah, but tent pressure, isn't it? 548 00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:08,640 Goodness, Giuseppe, that looks as neat as a pin. 549 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:10,200 Absolutely beautiful. 550 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:12,640 You've come up with something that's very elegant. 551 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:13,920 Cuts lovely. 552 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:15,920 Classic, lovely swirl inside there. 553 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:18,280 Perfect swirl. That is a perfect swirl. 554 00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:24,720 Classic almond cake with orange. 555 00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:27,720 Yeah. Ah, it's my favourite kind of cake. Oh, good. 556 00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:30,840 It's delicate and it's so well balanced that it grows on you. 557 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:33,560 With every mouthful, it's getting better and better. 558 00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:38,040 I think your flavours are beautiful. 559 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:40,400 The orange blossom comes through and it's very delicate, 560 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:43,040 but it's enough there to create a great flavour, because ricotta 561 00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:45,640 carries a little bit of flavour, so that between the two, 562 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:48,000 it's perfect.

Yeah. 1283 00:57:58,400 --> 00:58:01,480 But I love the colour of it and the concept of it. 1284 00:58:01,520 --> 00:58:02,880 This is lemon drizzle? 1285 00:58:02,920 --> 00:58:04,720 Yeah, lemon and elderflower. 1286 00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:09,160 I think your sponges are slightly overbaked. 1287 00:58:09,200 --> 00:58:10,520 They're a little bit too dry. 1288 00:58:10,560 --> 00:58:12,160 Did you use an extract with that one? 1289 00:58:12,200 --> 00:58:15,720 I used elderflower liqueur. There's quite a lot in there. 1290 00:58:15,760 --> 00:58:18,440 I think there's a touch too much. It's quite... 1291 00:58:18,480 --> 00:58:20,360 It burns, doesn't it? ..powerful. Yeah. 1292 00:58:20,400 --> 00:58:22,400 Thank you very much. Thank you. 1293 00:58:25,680 --> 00:58:29,120 WHISPERS: Well done. Thank you. It stayed up.

I think between you 1323 00:59:58,600 --> 01:00:00,880 and Freya you've done an amazing job with these flowers. 1324 01:00:00,920 --> 01:00:03,840 PRUE: And you've certainly hit the gravity-defying, because you cannot 1325 01:00:03,880 --> 01:00:06,120 believe that such a heavy cake is not going to fall over. 1326 01:00:06,160 --> 01:00:08,320 And just remind us about what the cake is. 1327 01:00:08,360 --> 01:00:12,000 It's a cinnamon sponge with a vanilla Italian meringue 1328 01:00:12,040 --> 01:00:14,880 buttercream and roasted pecans. 1329 01:00:14,920 --> 01:00:17,320 Hm.

Lovely. 1333 01:00:27,320 --> 01:00:29,200 The cinnamon hit is very powerful, but it works 1334 01:00:29,240 --> 01:00:31,680 because you've balanced that out with the vanilla as well. 1335 01:00:31,720 --> 01:00:34,280 And then the nuts just leave that little bit of texture as well. 1336 01:00:34,320 --> 01:00:37,320 So I think you've created something that is actually quite remarkable. 1337 01:00:37,360 --> 01:00:40,280 I absolutely agree. Thank you so much. That was amazing. Well done. 1338 01:00:40,320 --> 01:00:42,280 Well done.

The anti-gravity is certainly there. 1348 01:01:10,320 --> 01:01:12,560 It needs to be a little bit more honed. Yeah. 1349 01:01:17,080 --> 01:01:18,160 I have to say, 1350 01:01:18,200 --> 01:01:20,520 I'm a bit disappointed about the gravity-defying bit. 1351 01:01:20,560 --> 01:01:22,160 It was a bit of a disaster to be honest. 1352 01:01:22,200 --> 01:01:24,440 It's a, uh, lemon and almond cake. 1353 01:01:26,200 --> 01:01:28,600 It's rather more almond than lemon. Yeah. 1354 01:01:28,640 --> 01:01:31,360 And although there is a little bit of a lean, there's no way 1355 01:01:31,400 --> 01:01:32,640 that's defying gravity. 1356 01:01:32,680 --> 01:01:33,680 Fair enough. 1357 01:01:43,400 --> 01:01:44,800 It's simply beautiful. 1358 01:01:44,840 --> 01:01:49,200 And it's certainly gravity-defying, especially as you've got the cloud 1359 01:01:49,240 --> 01:01:52,400 off-centre, so that really makes you feel this should fall over. 1360 01:01:52,440 --> 01:01:54,480 PAUL: It's a great kid's cake, that. 1361 01:01:54,520 --> 01:01:56,680 Let's have a look, shall we? 1362 01:01:56,720 --> 01:01:59,280 The inside of the cake is XXX-inspired sponge 1363 01:01:59,320 --> 01:02:03,160 with a raspberry jam and cream cheese buttercream. 1364 01:02:06,920 --> 01:02:08,520 The sponge is a little dry. 1365 01:02:08,560 --> 01:02:09,840 OK. 1366 01:02:09,880 --> 01:02:12,320 Good flavour, though - really good. 1367 01:02:12,360 --> 01:02:13,600 Flavour's superb. 1368 01:02:13,640 --> 01:02:16,480 Because of the size of the cake, I would've put two layers in there. 1369 01:02:16,520 --> 01:02:19,200 Right. OK. It's true. If you'd had three layers of the sponge 1370 01:02:19,240 --> 01:02:22,320 and a bit more filling, you wouldn't have noticed the dryness so much. 1371 01:02:22,360 --> 01:02:26,360 It's a pity, because you've absolutely nailed the illusion bit. 1372 01:02:37,640 --> 01:02:40,320 I think it's so elegant, don't you? Yeah. 1373 01:02:40,360 --> 01:02:44,200 It's so clean and simple but beautifully done. 1374 01:02:44,240 --> 01:02:45,920 Is there cake in this? Yes. 1375 01:02:45,960 --> 01:02:48,560 There is?

Yes. 1382 01:03:12,040 --> 01:03:14,720 You've got the rose absolutely right. 1383 01:03:14,760 --> 01:03:16,800 You can hardly taste it but it's there. Yeah. 1384 01:03:16,840 --> 01:03:19,800 It's beautiful because the chiffon's quite a light sponge, then you've 1385 01:03:19,840 --> 01:03:22,720 got texture coming from the nuts, which gives you a beautiful flavour. 1386 01:03:22,760 --> 01:03:25,800 And then the background, you've got this rose sort of floating 1387 01:03:25,840 --> 01:03:28,880 through, so technically the way you've baked it is perfect. 1388 01:03:28,920 --> 01:03:30,880 You could become the flavour king. 1389 01:03:30,920 --> 01:03:34,480 Very, very good.
