All season long, judges
Mary Berry and
Paul Hollywood have asked the show contestants to bake to perfection items for the technical challenges that they may never have seen, tasted or even known what they were. In the first of two masterclasses, they demonstrate how to bake to that perfection the first four of the items requested as those technical bakes: coffee and walnut Battenburg cake, tarte au citron, foccacia, and cream filled brandy snaps. In reflecting on where the contestants went right and wrong, Mary and Paul provide tips to overcome any perceived difficulties to be able to make these bakery items to perfection at home.
