The bakers are moving away from a theme centered around a bakery item, to a more general theme as it is the first ever Celebration Week, meaning everything they produce must be in celebration of something. For the signature challenge, they are each to make a dozen éclairs in celebration of an event of their choosing using flavors of their choosing. The celebration is more defined in the technical, where they are each asked to make a Halloween spider web cake. The challenge with the technical is the multi-component nature of the product, which includes a cake sponge, a candy-like base, a mousse, a frosting, a fried tuile, and not only one but two mirror glazes, the second which is to produce the spider web effect. And for the signature, they or someone they know will be getting married in they each making a meringue centerpiece for a wedding. While they can use other edible items, the piece must consist primarily of meringue-based items, such as macarons, pavlovas, dacquoises and meringue kisses.
