The Great British Baking Show S.11 – Pastry and Botanical Weeks

It’s a Date with the Bake 2 for 1 special! Double the episodes means double the star bakers, but TRIPLE the bakers making their sad exit from the yummiest tent in England. Pastry Week is a classic and a must for showing the bakers’ skills with a flakey crust. However, the Great British Baking Show has a long history of choosing more problematic themes for the bakes of the week. And Botanical Week may not feel controversial, but it certainly evoked a reaction from Kimberly, Katie and Jake. Most of whom agree that this theme can leaf and never come back again. This double stacked episode means you have enough time to chill a floating island or proof a big cob loaf, so get those tins greased and ON YOUR MARK… GET SET… A DATE WITH THE BAKE!
