In Bakers vs. Fakers season 1 episode 5, titled "Say Cheese," four contestants compete for a chance to win $10,000 in a cheese-themed baking challenge. The contestants include two professional bakers and two self-taught home cooks.
In the first round, the contestants are tasked with creating a savory dish that highlights cheese as the main ingredient. They have an hour to complete their dish and impress the judges with their creativity, flavor, and presentation. The contestants must use a variety of cheeses, including cheddar, brie, and goat cheese.
In the second round, the four contestants must create a sweet dish that also features cheese. They have 90 minutes to make a dessert that showcases their baking skills and incorporates cheese in a unique and unexpected way. The judges will be looking for a dessert that is both delicious and visually stunning.
Throughout the episode, the contestants must also attempt to guess who among them is the "faker," someone who is not a professional baker but is pretending to be one. The judges will provide clues as to who the faker might be, and the contestants must use their detective skills to figure it out.
Each round, one contestant will be eliminated until only two remain. In the final round, the remaining two contestants will go head-to-head in a bake-off challenge, where they will have to create a cheese-based dish that combines both savory and sweet flavors. The judges will choose a winner based on taste, presentation, and creativity.
Throughout the episode, viewers will also learn some helpful tips and tricks for cooking with cheese, such as how to choose the right type of cheese for a recipe and how to incorporate cheese into both savory and sweet dishes. The competition will be intense, the cheese will be plentiful, and only one contestant will come out on top in Bakers vs. Fakers season 1 episode 5.
