Ep 7. Victorian

The Great British Bake Off season 6 episode 7 brings us to an era of elegance and extravagance, the Victorian period. The bakers will be required to take inspiration from this era with their signature bakes, technical bakes, and showstoppers.

The episode starts with the signature challenge where the bakers are asked to create their own version of a Victorian classic, the tennis cake. This classic sponge cake is typically served with a fruit filling and is decorated with a tennis court design. The bakers must pay close attention to the details in order to impress the judges.

Next up is the technical challenge which requires the bakers to create a Charlotte Russe, a dessert that was very popular during the Victorian era. The bakers will have to make a sponge base, fill it with a fruit mousse, and then surround it with ladyfingers.

Finally, the showstopper challenge will put the bakers to the test as they create three-tiered pies. The pies must have a different filling in each tier and must be decorated to reflect the grandeur of the Victorian era.

As always, the judges will be evaluating the bakers on their baking skills, creativity, flavor, and presentation. The stakes are high as the contestants aim to impress the judges and avoid being eliminated.

Will the bakers rise to the occasion and create Victorian-inspired masterpieces, or will they crumble under the pressure? Tune in to find out in The Great British Bake Off season 6 episode 7 - Victorian.
