Ep 14. Pie Squared
- February 19, 2021
In episode 14 of season 9 of Kids Baking Championship, titled "Pie Squared," the remaining four young bakers tackle the notoriously difficult task of making a perfectly square pie. The contestants are each given a limited amount of time to create their own unique and tasty pies, using ingredients such as strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries.
The young bakers are under pressure to impress the judges with both the taste and appearance of their pies. Hosts Valerie Bertinelli and Duff Goldman watch closely as the contestants work, giving them tips and advice as they go along.
One of the main challenges of this episode is getting the crust just right. The young bakers must carefully measure and mix the ingredients for the crust, roll it out evenly, and then carefully press it into their square pie pans. This requires precision and skill, and some of the contestants struggle with this step.
Once the crust is in place, the contestants move on to creating their fillings. They must choose the perfect combination of fruits and spices to create a flavorful and cohesive dish. The judges are looking for pies that are both delicious and visually appealing, with the perfect balance of sweetness and tartness.
As the contestants work, they must also keep an eye on the clock. They have a limited amount of time to complete their pies, and every second counts. Some of the bakers work with intense focus and precision, while others struggle to keep up with the pace of the competition.
In the end, the judges taste each of the contestants' pies and give their critiques. Some of the bakers have clearly excelled at this challenge, creating perfect square pies that are both tasty and visually stunning. Others have struggled with the crust or filling, resulting in less impressive pies.
Ultimately, one contestant is named the winner of this episode, while the rest are sent home. The competition is intense, but the young bakers are all talented and determined to do their best. Fans of the show will be on the edge of their seats as they watch the exciting and intense competition unfold in "Pie Squared."
