00:00:01Harry Potter Wizards of Baking has returned!

00:00:06Every year, millions of Potter fans journey to Leavesden

00:00:10to walk amongst the breathtaking original sets.

00:00:14But eager muggles aren't the studio's only visitors

00:00:17because we've invited the world's finest bakers here, too!

00:00:22Oh! That's cool.

00:00:23What in the world? Do you need a hand?

00:00:26This seat, eight brand-new teams

00:00:29will take part in the most extraordinary competition

00:00:34for the coveted Wizards of Baking Cup.

00:00:37You can't come to Hogwarts and not do magic.

00:00:39They'll conjure up all sorts of spellbinding sweet creations

00:00:46inspired by the world of Harry Potter.

00:00:53Then they'll present them to our formidable ministers of baking,

00:00:57a Top Chef All-Star whose very mantra is to cook with love,

00:01:01Chef Carla Hall, and an acclaimed chef who has worked

00:01:05in Michelin star kitchens around the world,

00:01:08Chef Joseph Youssef!

00:01:10Yes! Yes! There we go!

00:01:12As well as some very special guests.

00:01:15This is what I've waited 20 years for.

00:01:17Guiding us are two chaps who are no strangers to Hogwarts.

00:01:21Fred and George Weasley themselves.

00:01:23Ready Fred, ready George.

00:01:25James and Oliver Phelps.

00:01:27Well, isn't the Flu Network amazing?

00:01:30So let the magic and the baking begin!

00:01:35Oh, my God!

00:01:51Oh, my God!

00:01:58Oh, my God!

00:01:59We are literally in the Great Hall.

00:02:01This is like a dream come true.

00:02:03I am a huge fan of the books and the movies.

00:02:05Oh, my God! Oh, my God!

00:02:07We are here!

00:02:08I can't believe that we are here.

00:02:10Look, look, look!

00:02:11Whoa!

00:02:12I don't even know where to look.

00:02:14Dude, the trophy has Jordan and Zoe's name on it.

00:02:16No way!

00:02:24Okay, now. Playing cool.

00:02:27Attention, bankers!

00:02:31Come on! Come down! Come down! Come down!

00:02:33Come down!

00:02:34When James and Oliver Phelps, the Weasley twins themselves,

00:02:37came in, they snuck in so quiet for tall boys.

00:02:40I know.

00:02:41We couldn't hear them.

00:02:42I don't think I'm normally a very starstruck person,

00:02:44but I kind of felt a bit starstruck.

00:02:47I feel like Harry Potter royalty.

00:02:49You've made it!

00:02:51Welcome to Wizards of Baking Chapter Two!

00:02:58And a competition grander than even the Quidditch World Cup.

00:03:02I'm James.

00:03:03And I'm Oliver.

00:03:04And if you can't tell us apart, just think,

00:03:06I'm the handsome one.

00:03:09So, of course, this is the Great Hall,

00:03:12and it's been the scene of some truly unforgettable moments

00:03:16for you all.

00:03:19Dumbledore's iconic speeches.

00:03:21Welcome, welcome to another year at Hogwarts.

00:03:25And most impressive of all,

00:03:27Fred and George's firework display.

00:03:29Dumbledore!

00:03:30Dumbledore!

00:03:31Dumbledore!

00:03:32Dumbledore!

00:03:33Dumbledore!

00:03:34Dumbledore!

00:03:35Dumbledore!

00:03:36Dumbledore!

00:03:37Dumbledore!

00:03:38Dumbledore!

00:03:39Dumbledore!

00:03:40Dumbledore!

00:03:41Dumbledore!

00:03:42Dumbledore!

00:03:43If the Harry Potter stories taught us anything,

00:03:46it's that success is rarely achieved alone.

00:03:49It requires teamwork, cooperation,

00:03:52and normally, Hermione telling everyone what to do.

00:03:55Naturally.

00:03:56So, for this competition,

00:03:58you've been placed into pairs

00:04:00based on your complementary skills.

00:04:02So, you ready to get started?

00:04:04Yes!

00:04:05Good, because it's time for your first challenge.

00:04:08Each team will be assigned a Hogwarts house

00:04:11to use as the inspiration for your first showpiece.

00:04:15Now, there are eight teams, but only four houses.

00:04:21That means that you'll be facing off

00:04:24in four head-to-head duels.

00:04:27What?

00:04:28The winning team in each duel

00:04:30will live to bake another day.

00:04:32The losing team could be heading home

00:04:34before the fat lady sings.

00:04:36LAUGHTER

00:04:38But which houses will you get?

00:04:40Jenny and Alex?

00:04:42Heather and Kate?

00:04:43Could you step forward?

00:04:44Oh, my goodness.

00:04:47So, it wouldn't feel right for us

00:04:49to assign you guys a house.

00:04:51So, we asked a special friend

00:04:53to do the honours.

00:04:55The suspense is killing me.

00:04:56Mmm.

00:04:57Difficult.

00:04:58Very difficult.

00:05:00Plenty of courage, I see.

00:05:03Oh, my gosh.

00:05:04It's the sorting half.

00:05:05I think the sorting ceremony is so epic,

00:05:07because it's one of the first things that happens

00:05:09when the students get to Hogwarts,

00:05:10and it's the first thing that's happening

00:05:12to us here in the competition,

00:05:14and so it really feels like...

00:05:15like our entrance into the Harry Potter world.

00:05:18There's talent.

00:05:20Oh, yes.

00:05:21But where to put you?

00:05:23Not Slytherin.

00:05:24Better be...

00:05:26Gryffindor!

00:05:28LAUGHTER

00:05:31So, Gryffindor students

00:05:33are known for their courage, bravery,

00:05:35and determination.

00:05:37So, do keep that in mind.

00:05:39Okay.

00:05:40Okay.

00:05:41But before we head off to the kitchen,

00:05:42here are a few rules.

00:05:43The showpieces need to include

00:05:45a mouth-watering tasting element,

00:05:48and they also need to feature one effect,

00:05:51and that has to be inspired

00:05:53by the element that your house is famous for.

00:05:56For Gryffindor, that is, of course, fire!

00:06:00Yeah, yeah.

00:06:02That's gonna be so cool.

00:06:03And in six hours,

00:06:04you're gonna bring your creations back here

00:06:06to be judged.

00:06:07Yes.

00:06:08Good luck.

00:06:09And...

00:06:10I've been waiting ages to say this.

00:06:11Let the baking begin!

00:06:13CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

00:06:19Oh, my goodness.

00:06:22This is so cool.

00:06:46Look at this.

00:06:47Look at this.

00:06:48Look at this.

00:06:49Look at this.

00:06:50Look at this.

00:06:51Look at this.

00:06:52This is nice.

00:06:53Oh, my God.

00:06:54Oh, my God.

00:06:55Whoa.

00:06:56It's a dream.

00:06:57Oh, my God.

00:06:58I can't believe it.

00:06:59It does.

00:07:00Come down.

00:07:05Okay.

00:07:06Okay.

00:07:07When you think Gryffindor,

00:07:08what are you thinking?

00:07:09Courage.

00:07:10Fashion.

00:07:11Yeah.

00:07:12We should go with Hagrid.

00:07:13I love Hagrid.

00:07:14Oh, my God.

00:07:15Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:07:16He's with Harry right from the very beginning,

00:07:17isn't he?

00:07:18What scene are we gonna use for Hagrid?

00:07:19We should go with, uh, Baby Norbert.

00:07:21Maybe?

00:07:22He's setting fire.

00:07:23Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:07:24Setting fire to the beard.

00:07:25Let's go with them.

00:07:26Perfect.

00:07:27Yeah.

00:07:28Ooh!

00:07:29Ooh!

00:07:30Ooh!

00:07:31Ooh!

00:07:32Ooh!

00:07:33Whoa!

00:07:34He'll have to be trained up a bit, of course.

00:07:36Yeah?

00:07:37Yeah.

00:07:38So we've got Hagrid.

00:07:40Mm-hmm.

00:07:41Holding Baby Norbert.

00:07:42There you go.

00:07:43In his oven gloves.

00:07:44Yeah.

00:07:45I'm a chocolatier.

00:07:46Yes.

00:07:47So I think I should be doing the egg, also the chocolate flames.

00:07:49Oh, my God.

00:07:50It is gonna be a lot.

00:07:51Are you ready?

00:07:52Are you ready?

00:07:53Let's do this.

00:07:54We've got this.

00:07:55Don't be fooled by her bubbly personality.

00:08:00Self-taught cake artist Jenny is a force to be reckoned with.

00:08:05With an impressive cake résumé and a knack for hyper-realism.

00:08:12Hoping to mix up the competition with his chocolatier skills, Chef Alex pairs innovative techniques

00:08:19with flavours that are sure to surprise and excite.

00:08:25I think we both know that we've got some crazy skills.

00:08:27Yeah.

00:08:28Your chocolate work is just phenomenal.

00:08:31What about your cake skills?

00:08:32Hello!

00:08:33Yeah, thank you.

00:08:34I'm not very good at compliments, but okay.

00:08:37Okay, well, the Gryffindor is represented by the lion.

00:08:41Yes.

00:08:42Our showpiece is inspired by the iconic elements of Gryffindor.

00:08:44I think making sort of the lion represent the fire.

00:08:47I love it.

00:08:48And I think we have to include the sword, right?

00:08:50Godric's sword.

00:08:51Yeah.

00:08:52And I always think of, like, Hermione.

00:08:53She's carrying books all the time.

00:08:55When I think of the Gryffindors, I think they're always in their robes and the scarf.

00:09:02We're the newbies.

00:09:03We've got to make a big impact right out of the gate.

00:09:05Right.

00:09:06It's really surreal being here.

00:09:07A little overwhelming.

00:09:08We haven't ever done any of this before, so it's all new for us.

00:09:11Like Kate, I haven't competed in a competition of this magnitude.

00:09:15Like, we got something up our sleeves.

00:09:18Yes.

00:09:21I will soft this one in the microwave so it is faster.

00:09:24Alex is making our tasting element.

00:09:27He's the king of flavors.

00:09:28And the tasting element will be hidden underneath the chocolate egg.

00:09:32This is my first TV show, so I'm really excited.

00:09:36I wanted to replicate Norbert's egg as real as possible.

00:09:40I'm just spraying some bronze cacao butter so it looks more realistic.

00:09:45For me, chocolate, it's my life.

00:09:47I really love how to create new things and making these weird ideas that I have in my mind.

00:09:54How does it look?

00:09:55That's looking gorgeous.

00:09:56Yeah, right?

00:09:57I'm from Cuernavaca, Morelos.

00:10:00It is a little town next to the capital in Mexico.

00:10:04I am kind of a bohemian.

00:10:06I love writing poetry.

00:10:07I play the guitar.

00:10:08Really?

00:10:09I used to have a band, yeah.

00:10:10I've been playing the horn now for nearly 40 years.

00:10:13Are you kidding me?

00:10:14We should have a band.

00:10:15So, Jenny, how big of a fan of Harry Potter are you?

00:10:22I'm actually obsessed.

00:10:24Okay.

00:10:25Obviously, I've read all the books numerous times.

00:10:27Okay.

00:10:28I've seen all the films.

00:10:29Okay.

00:10:30I've listened to the audio books.

00:10:31I have the outfits.

00:10:32I have the wands.

00:10:33We have the costumes.

00:10:34I have the jewelry.

00:10:35Oh, yeah.

00:10:40Okay, bakers.

00:10:41So, one house has been allocated, three to go.

00:10:44Molly and Priya, Angel and Rui, you're next.

00:10:49I don't want to get Slytherin.

00:10:50I'm worried about that.

00:10:51I really don't like snakes.

00:10:54Ah.

00:10:55Right then.

00:10:58Hufflepuffs!

00:10:59Hey!

00:11:02Hufflepuffs!

00:11:03The Hufflepuff house element is earth,

00:11:06so you need to keep that in mind for your first showpiece.

00:11:10Right, guys, what are you waiting for?

00:11:11Your time's already started.

00:11:12Come on.

00:11:13We've got six hours.

00:11:14Come on, go.

00:11:23Wow.

00:11:24Oh, my God.

00:11:25Oh, my God.

00:11:26Look at this.

00:11:27Wow.

00:11:29Oh, my gosh.

00:11:30I've had to cook.

00:11:31Hi.

00:11:33I've never been anywhere like this before.

00:11:34This is incredible.

00:11:35Amazing.

00:11:36So?

00:11:37What do you think?

00:11:38So we need to do something that's really big.

00:11:40Yep.

00:11:41How about if we do a forest scene?

00:11:42A forest?

00:11:43Yeah.

00:11:44I like that.

00:11:45I like the garden.

00:11:46Like soil.

00:11:47What I am good at is animals.

00:11:48I think that should definitely be carved cake,

00:11:50because that kind of is my specialty.

00:11:52So the badger's going to be cake.

00:11:53We need something on the top.

00:11:55Like, why don't we do the greenhouse classroom on top?

00:11:58How do we make it look like glass, though?

00:11:59We could do a little sugar work.

00:12:01The cake is mainly going to have, like, three main focal points.

00:12:05It's going to have the badger, the watering can,

00:12:08and then we've got the Professor Sprout's greenhouse on the top,

00:12:11because Professor Sprout's a Hufflepuff.

00:12:13We'll have mushrooms and snails and just every element

00:12:17of a perfect enchanted forest scene.

00:12:21I'm also a little bit concerned with the greenhouse on top.

00:12:24Like, we've got to go for it.

00:12:30A renowned master of chocolate,

00:12:32Canada's Priya arrived onto the scene

00:12:35after earning global recognition for her chocolate artistry.

00:12:42The daughter of a celebrated English comedian and a showgirl,

00:12:46Molly always makes an entrance.

00:12:49She sculpts lifelike cakes that never fail to impress.

00:12:54Molly and Priya are hungry to rewrite the rulebook

00:12:58for all wizards of baking.

00:13:00Oh, hello.

00:13:02We've realised we have similar tastes, similar style.

00:13:05We both run our own businesses.

00:13:07We also are, like, incredibly strong, independent women,

00:13:10and we are here to win.

00:13:15Oh, wow!

00:13:17The first thing I'm doing is the greenhouse on the top

00:13:21made of ice malt.

00:13:22I've already set all of my bars to create the shapes

00:13:26for the front, back, sides, and top of the greenhouse.

00:13:29Wow!

00:13:30I honestly think it looks fantastic.

00:13:32Yeah!

00:13:33It is striking, just clear as glass.

00:13:37So I'm putting the pieces together, very carefully,

00:13:42warming the edges.

00:13:46OK.

00:13:47And the isomal is cracking.

00:13:50It's so fragile.

00:13:54Priya, no!

00:13:55It's the focal point.

00:13:56It's the top of the piece.

00:13:58Terrifying.

00:14:03The gazebo has had an accident, but it's OK.

00:14:07We're going to keep going.

00:14:08We're fine.

00:14:09Just to get back together on this one.

00:14:11Like, I've got some gaps here.

00:14:14I like the crack.

00:14:15You do?

00:14:16Yeah, we're going to add a vine to it.

00:14:19I'm adding the stained glass to the isomalt.

00:14:22I drew the stained glass design.

00:14:24I'm just going to stick it on with a bit of piping gel.

00:14:26We had a crack in the isomalt,

00:14:28but then we realized the real Professor Sprouts greenhouse

00:14:32has got cracks in it and great big vines growing through it,

00:14:35so we're just making it a design feature.

00:14:37So if anything, it's going to look even better.

00:14:39Look, Priya.

00:14:41Yeah, Molly.

00:14:42So good.

00:14:44I am so ready to do this challenge.

00:14:48Angel is definitely a person with good energy.

00:14:50I can feel your vibes.

00:14:52We have a very different personality,

00:14:54but it's a good complement.

00:14:58Known as a culinary mad scientist,

00:15:01Molecular Gastronomy Specialist Chef Rui

00:15:04creates edible experiments that dazzle and delight,

00:15:08packed with copious amounts of flavor in every single bite.

00:15:17Chilli-born and Colorado-based Angel is a creative force

00:15:22whose sculpted cakes and clever problem-solving skills

00:15:28are equal parts art and ingenuity.

00:15:37I think I'm a Hufflepuff because I am very connected to the Earth.

00:15:41My family loves to go camping.

00:15:44We go fishing and skiing and everything that involves to be outside.

00:15:49Oh, I hate camping.

00:15:51It's so uncomfortable.

00:15:53There's no mattress.

00:15:55There's no air conditioner.

00:15:56There's no heater.

00:15:58There.

00:15:59It's so uncomfortable.

00:16:00You're so bushy.

00:16:02Here we have our armature for our garden box.

00:16:05Our element, it's Earth.

00:16:06So we really want to make the main trick.

00:16:11Got it.

00:16:12And now we dump it down into the other pot

00:16:15and pour a little sprinkling of soil to keep it warm.

00:16:19In our garden box, we're going to have a big mandrake.

00:16:25We're going to have dirt inside made of cocoa crumpled.

00:16:29And then we're going to have three little baby mandrakes.

00:16:32So this is the mandrake.

00:16:33I'm going to be carving this out of cake.

00:16:35And this is the mouth.

00:16:37And it's going to be moving and screaming.

00:16:41Hello.

00:16:43How are you?

00:16:44I have to make sure it's not too heavy.

00:16:47So it actually goes up and down.

00:16:49That's why I'm using rice cereal,

00:16:51because that's the lightest thing I can use.

00:16:53And modeling chocolate on top.

00:16:56I'm adding these roots to give it a little bit more high.

00:17:01I'm loving him.

00:17:03Beautiful.

00:17:04Oh.

00:17:09Jor and Katie.

00:17:11Arjun Sarah.

00:17:13Front and center, please.

00:17:15Oh, boy.

00:17:16Oh, boy.

00:17:17So, only two houses left.

00:17:19Slytherin and Ravenclaw.

00:17:21Ha!

00:17:22I know just what to do with you.

00:17:25Slytherin!

00:17:26Oh!

00:17:27Yes!

00:17:28Slytherin.

00:17:29Slytherins are known for their pride, ambition, and cunning.

00:17:34Mm-hmm.

00:17:35Their house element is the suitably slippery substance of water.

00:17:41So you need to keep that in mind for your creations.

00:17:45Guys, time to slither off to the kitchen.

00:17:47Good luck!

00:17:49Yay!

00:17:50Slytherin!

00:17:52We're very ambitious.

00:17:53We're ready to give everything that we have.

00:17:55We have to win.

00:17:56We have to win.

00:17:57I want to win, but we have to win.

00:18:06Wow!

00:18:07What just happened?

00:18:08Oh, my God.

00:18:09Oh, my God.

00:18:10We just went through the blue network.

00:18:11Look, our crates are over there.

00:18:12Oh, my God.

00:18:13I'll try to not freak out.

00:18:14I might cry.

00:18:15I get a little anxious.

00:18:17A little bad under pressure.

00:18:19So, you know, it's okay.

00:18:20You'll have me.

00:18:21I'll be your personal cheerleader.

00:18:22Yeah.

00:18:23Yeah, we'll be good.

00:18:24Hi, guys!

00:18:25I competed on five baking shows, and I won three.

00:18:28I'm so glad you're my teammate, because I've never competed on a TV show before.

00:18:32I am a chocolatier.

00:18:33I've been asked to be on competitions all the time, and I'm like, no, I don't do TV.

00:18:37That's not for me.

00:18:38When they were like, it's Harry Potter, and I was like, today.

00:18:41I'll go there today.

00:18:42Lucky for us, I'm a 4.0 student, and I'm here to win.

00:18:46Do you want to know a fun fact?

00:18:47Mm-hmm.

00:18:48I was also a 4.0 student.

00:18:49We've got to create something really epic.

00:18:51Could we do, like, Voldemort?

00:18:52Why not?

00:18:53Right.

00:18:54You're all right.

00:18:55So, you know what I'm thinking?

00:18:56So, we have to integrate water.

00:18:57Oh, the scene.

00:18:58You know when the water is spinning in the end?

00:18:59In the Ministry of Magic?

00:19:00Yeah.

00:19:01Yeah.

00:19:02Yeah.

00:19:03Yeah.

00:19:04Yeah.

00:19:05So, we can do, like, a cascading, like, gravity-defying isomal.

00:19:08This is going to be really important.

00:19:10Yeah.

00:19:11Yeah.

00:19:12Yeah.

00:19:13Yeah.

00:19:14Yeah.

00:19:15Yeah.

00:19:16Yeah.

00:19:17Yeah.

00:19:18Yeah.

00:19:19Yeah.

00:19:20Yeah.

00:19:21Yeah.

00:19:22Yeah.

00:19:23Yeah.

00:19:24Yeah.

00:19:25Yeah.

00:19:26Yeah.

00:19:27Yeah.

00:19:28It's going to be really, really challenging because of the wait.

00:19:31Let's get started.

00:19:33Okay.

00:19:34What is something that is so Slytherin, it's unmistakable?

00:19:38So...

00:19:39Yeah.

00:19:40We have to use water.

00:19:41When I think water, I think of the Chamber of Secrets.

00:19:43Maybe we'll do, like, a multi-level floor view.

00:19:46Yeah.

00:19:47Like, you start at the top in the hallway of Hogwarts, where it's, like, the wall, like,

00:19:51has the warning of, like, the air beware, right?

00:19:54Mm-hmm.

00:19:55Maybe, like, as you go downward, there's the snake door that you have to speak in parcel

00:20:00tongue to open.

00:20:01And then below that, it could be, like, the Chamber of Secrets.

00:20:04It's, like, the big cavernous crypt.

00:20:06Yeah.

00:20:07Perfect.

00:20:08Yes.

00:20:09Our show piece consists of three tiers.

00:20:10The middle tier will have stalagmites and stalactite added on either side of the door.

00:20:15The entrance walkway will be surrounded by water and lead up to a cavern with a huge carving

00:20:20of Salazar Slytherin's face.

00:20:22Emerging from the entrance of the wall is a large basilisk.

00:20:25On the walkway lies the diary of Tom Riddle.

00:20:28Rip it off like a Band-Aid.

00:20:29Wow.

00:20:30Marge, this has been crazy so far, right?

00:20:32Like, I feel like we just met each other.

00:20:34Yeah, I know.

00:20:35We actually did just meet each other.

00:20:36Now we have to force ourselves to work together with our different styles.

00:20:40I am obsessed with pro wrestling.

00:20:42That is my thing.

00:20:44Going to Comic-Con, and I love cosplay.

00:20:47I'm not really girly, I would say.

00:20:49I've always been a tomboy.

00:20:50People look at me and they always tell me they're so intimidated by me.

00:20:54When I first saw you, I thought, maybe she'll hate me.

00:20:56I know.

00:20:57I don't know.

00:20:58But honestly, you're the sweetest person.

00:21:00I think we're pretty polar opposites.

00:21:03When I'm not baking, I love spending time with my two cats at home.

00:21:07I love gardening, everything to do with flowers.

00:21:10Sarah's like a princess, like a...

00:21:15All right, yeah, this is lining up so good.

00:21:18The top tier of our show piece is made out of dark chocolate that I cast into a silicone mold.

00:21:24I'm just giving it a little hair dry.

00:21:26That looks so cool.

00:21:28I'm doing a lot of cocoa butter spraying to give some dimension.

00:21:32I then go back with a really fine brush and red cocoa butter to hand paint the ominous message.

00:21:38We're good, we're good.

00:21:39Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.

00:21:41I'm a chocolatier.

00:21:42I don't usually work with rice cereal, but this is fun.

00:21:45Learning new mediums.

00:21:47This is where the tasting cake's gonna go.

00:21:48So build this guy up to here, and then leave the sponsor cake, okay?

00:21:51Perfect.

00:21:52Okay.

00:21:53And what about yay high for the cake?

00:21:54Very technical.

00:21:55Yay high.

00:21:56Yay high.

00:21:57I am now a cake artist.

00:22:00It is looking a little bit messy right now, but we will save time to clean it up.

00:22:05Yep.

00:22:06But it's looking good.

00:22:07Yep.

00:22:12Best for last.

00:22:13Well, with only two teams left and one house to go, any guesses?

00:22:18Ravenclaw.

00:22:19That is right.

00:22:21Yay.

00:22:22Oh, no.

00:22:23Caitlyn and Jaleesa.

00:22:24And you and Stefan.

00:22:25Ravenclaws are known for their wit, their wisdom, and their learning.

00:22:29And the house element is air.

00:22:31So, come then.

00:22:32Get cracking.

00:22:33Off your part.

00:22:34Good luck, guys.

00:22:36The script is very, very clear.

00:22:38That trophy needs to say Caitlyn and Jaleesa.

00:22:40Season two winners.

00:22:41I actually have previously competed with Jaleesa before.

00:22:44I did beat her, seeing if I could do it for a second time.

00:22:54Oh, my God.

00:22:56What?

00:23:00That's crazy.

00:23:01Whoa, this is our stage.

00:23:02Oh, my God.

00:23:03Okay.

00:23:04Raven.

00:23:05Raven needs to be, like, the main part of it.

00:23:07Yeah.

00:23:08Because I know you're good with, like, chocolate and stuff like that.

00:23:09You think you could do, like...

00:23:10I could do some chocolate wings.

00:23:11Yeah.

00:23:12We could do some chocolate feathers.

00:23:13Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:23:14If we do, like, maybe, like, an open book.

00:23:16We still have to include, I think, like, a really important part of Ravenclaw.

00:23:19Yeah.

00:23:20It's, like, a part of the movies.

00:23:21The diadem.

00:23:22Then we could maybe create that with sugar.

00:23:23We can kind of set it on, like, a pillow.

00:23:25Could that be my entremé, then?

00:23:26Yeah.

00:23:27Could I do an entremé?

00:23:28It would be the pillow.

00:23:29I like that.

00:23:30We need to do something really theatrical.

00:23:32It's actually my motto for life is to make it magical.

00:23:35And I try to make it magical every day.

00:23:37And that's whether it's with my desserts, whether it's DJing, whether it is having a gospel night with my amazing wife, who's a powerful singer.

00:23:46What about the wings?

00:23:47The wings.

00:23:48That's ambitious.

00:23:49Yeah.

00:23:50I am a cake artist.

00:23:51I definitely had to convince my parents to let me go to culinary school.

00:23:54And they were like, yeah, I mean, as long as, you know, you pay, and then you can go.

00:23:59And then, so, you know, I'm in debt, but we're good.

00:24:03Taking a risk, but...

00:24:04A little bit more than we need to, but...

00:24:05I think it's cool.

00:24:06Yeah, nothing.

00:24:07That's cool.

00:24:08That's good.

00:24:09Honestly, let's go for it.

00:24:10So we have to do air.

00:24:11So something was like, um...

00:24:12What if we did a bird actually flying?

00:24:15Love that.

00:24:16From Maryland, mum of two, Caitlin, is bringing her enthusiasm and passion for bold cake designs with her into the kitchen.

00:24:27New Jersey mum of two, Jaleesa, enters the competition equally determined to take home the trophy.

00:24:35Both of these strong-minded bakers have their eyes focused on the prize.

00:24:41You know, we're both very competitive. I'm very good at what I do.

00:24:46I've won two competitions before.

00:24:48I competed on Spring Bacon Championship, won that.

00:24:51We're not going into this very cocky and big head, like, oh, yeah, I'm really good at what...

00:24:54It's like, yes, we're good at what we do, but we're also...

00:24:56We can back it up.

00:24:57Yeah.

00:24:58You know how when they cast a spell, the gust that kind of shows on the outside of the line?

00:25:01Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:25:02I want to somehow try to incorporate, like, some moves.

00:25:05So should we do, like, Wingardium Leviosa?

00:25:06Yes, yes, like Hermione.

00:25:08The way she's, like, trying to pronounce it.

00:25:09It's Leviosa, not Leviosa.

00:25:13You do it, then, if you're so clever.

00:25:15Go on, go on.

00:25:16Wingardium Leviosa.

00:25:17Wingardium Leviosa.

00:25:18Wingardium Leviosa.

00:25:19Wingardium Leviosa.

00:25:20Wingardium Leviosa.

00:25:26What if one of the books is open and that's where the magic comes out?

00:25:28And that's how the ghost comes out.

00:25:29I like that.

00:25:30Okay, okay, so we're doing a table and books.

00:25:32Our tasting element will be inside of the books.

00:25:34Also, we're gonna have a homework scroll that says the Wingardium Leviosa spell.

00:25:38And then the raven on top is our showstopper.

00:25:41I had no idea how competitive I was until I started competing.

00:25:46I just thought, like, oh, it's a friendly competition.

00:25:48I'm gonna, like, try my best.

00:25:49Like, yeah.

00:25:50And then it was, like, no, I'm elbowing people.

00:25:52And I'm a track star.

00:25:53And I will run to grab what I want.

00:25:54And I will take the last one and not care.

00:25:55Because I want to win.

00:25:56The whole point of a competition is to win.

00:26:06Oh!

00:26:07Oh!

00:26:08Wow!

00:26:09Oh, my God.

00:26:10Isn't the Food Network amazing?

00:26:11Oh, my God!

00:26:12Woo!

00:26:13So, remember, teams, you all began 30 minutes apart.

00:26:17So, some of you will finish before others.

00:26:20Oh.

00:26:21Gryffindor, teams, you started first.

00:26:23So, you'll be the first to step up and present to the judges.

00:26:26Okay.

00:26:27Yeah.

00:26:28Hufflepuff teams, you will present yours 30 minutes later.

00:26:31Slytherin will be next.

00:26:33And then, finally, Ravenclaw.

00:26:35Woo!

00:26:36Awesome!

00:26:40Was it good?

00:26:41Start adding the dry and the...

00:26:44So, for my bit, when I make baby Norbert,

00:26:46I've got this really cool technique.

00:26:48I'm thinking, I'm gonna make his wings,

00:26:50but I'm gonna make them out of edible skin.

00:26:53What I'm gonna be doing is painting an underlayer

00:26:55of these wafer paper sheets.

00:26:58So, I'm just giving this a base coat of gelatin.

00:27:00And then, when this gelatin dries,

00:27:02it's gonna look like skin.

00:27:04So, what I will do is sandwich his fingers

00:27:07inside two layers of paper.

00:27:09And then, what that's gonna do is give the wing structure,

00:27:13so it'll look like the bone underneath the skin.

00:27:15And I'll be airbrushing it and dusting it

00:27:17and making it look even more realistic.

00:27:21Ooh!

00:27:22It feels good to be cooking.

00:27:23For the tasting element,

00:27:24we'll be making a buttermilk cake

00:27:26with a rhubarb and blood orange compote filling.

00:27:28And it will be right behind the eyes

00:27:30in the lion's forehead.

00:27:31So, I have our blood orange puree.

00:27:33I'm gonna combine that with a little sugar, our rhubarb,

00:27:36cook that down in a compote.

00:27:38I'm going a little bit savory with my rhubarb,

00:27:41so there could be a little bit of an error

00:27:44in balance between that salty and that sweet.

00:27:47You know, I get in my head, and I get really, you know,

00:27:49I'm nervous, and I'm like, what am I doing?

00:27:51It's intimidating.

00:27:52I mean, the whole thing is terrifying.

00:27:54I live in Nashville, Tennessee,

00:27:56and I'm the executive feaster chef at a hotel.

00:28:00I'm a little bit whimsical.

00:28:02I like to have fun.

00:28:03I'm a little bit cheeky.

00:28:05So, I think that that translates into my desserts.

00:28:07I'm from Michigan.

00:28:10Detroit Lions.

00:28:11Love.

00:28:12I have owned my own bakery for 12 years,

00:28:15and we always did these really big window displays.

00:28:18It took me a long time to find my own stride,

00:28:21and in my 40s now, it's time.

00:28:24Look out, world.

00:28:26I am going to probably work on the lion now.

00:28:30Okay.

00:28:31All right.

00:28:32Let's get it going.

00:28:34Now I'm starting to shape the main,

00:28:36so we can give it a lot of power and strength

00:28:39like Gryffindor House deserves.

00:28:42I think it looks really good.

00:28:44You're really fast at this.

00:28:46I'm so happy with it.

00:28:48Bigger is better, and more is more.

00:28:50Absolutely.

00:28:51We're back for chapter two.

00:28:53Back in our lovely kitchen.

00:28:5516 bakers at once in the kitchen,

00:28:58all working really, really hard.

00:29:00How exciting is that?

00:29:01I know over the course of this season,

00:29:03we're going to see challenges which are tougher than before.

00:29:06We're going to push these bakers as far as they can possibly go.

00:29:09I can't wait to see what the judges think of it.

00:29:12So, I know what I've noticed.

00:29:14There's a tribute to a lot of different characters in here,

00:29:18including Goblet of Fire's very own Cedric Diggory.

00:29:21Yes.

00:29:22Where's our tribute?

00:29:23Yeah.

00:29:24Have we just got to stand in a plinth?

00:29:26We didn't get a shirt.

00:29:27We'll do this.

00:29:30You're good like that.

00:29:31I'll take over, shall I?

00:29:35Kaylyn Jelisa.

00:29:36Hello.

00:29:37How are you today?

00:29:38It's definitely, like, hyperspeed that we're working in, but...

00:29:41So, what are you doing right now then, Kaylyn?

00:29:43So, the bottom of our showpiece is a desk,

00:29:45so I am marbling fondant, basically three different colours,

00:29:49and what that does is, like, it makes woodgrain striations,

00:29:52so then when I put it through the sheeter, it looks like this.

00:29:54That's hoist?

00:29:55Yeah.

00:29:56That's this.

00:29:57Wow.

00:29:58Which one of you girls is the biggest Potter fan here?

00:30:01That's definitely Kaylyn.

00:30:02I almost burst into tears when I walked into the Great Hall.

00:30:05I've been a fan since I was, like, 11,

00:30:07so it feels like I kind of grew up with all of you guys, really.

00:30:10Oh, okay.

00:30:11I can, like, quote the movie and, like, do the voices and everything.

00:30:14The voices? Go on, do a voice.

00:30:15Where have you been?

00:30:17That was really good.

00:30:19Where have you been?

00:30:23Guys, we'll leave you to it.

00:30:26See you soon.

00:30:30I'm making the Yuzu sponge,

00:30:32so we wanted it to be the Hufflepuff colour, the yellow and black,

00:30:35so we've got the yellow of the sponge,

00:30:37and then I'm making a black sesame buttercream,

00:30:40and that's going to add, like, a really nutty, like, earthy kind of flavour.

00:30:44See, it's got multiple ends,

00:30:46and it's really giving me that sugar threadiness.

00:30:49I'll be doing a sesame nougatine as well,

00:30:51and that's going to add a little bit of crunch texture and colour to our cake.

00:30:55This build is bigger and has more components than anything I've ever done before.

00:31:00It really needs to be a team effort.

00:31:03I've just got to be positive.

00:31:06I have some Sichuan buttons.

00:31:10Sichuan buttons are a kind of type of spice.

00:31:13It will be part of the rosemary and Sichuan button tasting almond.

00:31:18So I'm freezing with liquid nitrogen.

00:31:21So session buttons, they have this activated molecule,

00:31:24which is called hydroxyl alpha sensual.

00:31:27I'm sure.

00:31:28And it works.

00:31:29My expertise is molecular gastronomy.

00:31:32I really have to use the goggles.

00:31:34I'm a chef, food designer and professor at two universities

00:31:37and three different schools in Portugal, Lisbon.

00:31:40I'm really trying to make my name as a mark and as a stamp for Portuguese gastronomy.

00:31:44Beautiful, that's it.

00:31:47Oh, I got the best formula.

00:31:50So the Sichuan, it's something really nice because it gives you a dynamic effect.

00:31:54It's going to feel like you're having electrical impulses.

00:31:58Oh my gosh.

00:31:59In your tongue.

00:32:00Are you sure?

00:32:01Sure, trust me.

00:32:06Oh my gosh.

00:32:08I can't see my tongue now.

00:32:10What?

00:32:11Be careful.

00:32:12Try one each.

00:32:14They should probably find something before.

00:32:17So we've got something which makes your tongue go to sleep.

00:32:20You're going to feel like electric.

00:32:21Whiskey.

00:32:22You're going to feel like electric sensation on your tongue.

00:32:25Okay, so I'm feeling like if you were to get a car battery and lick it,

00:32:29that's probably the best way I could describe it.

00:32:31I have never had anything like this before.

00:32:33It's magic.

00:32:34In my life.

00:32:35The molecules, everything, yeah.

00:32:37It'll go.

00:32:38See you later, guys.

00:32:39I'll let you know if you're salivating too much.

00:32:41No, no, no.

00:32:42We're like starting the tasting element stuff.

00:32:47My instant thought is make matcha cake, right?

00:32:51It's green, obviously represents Slytherin.

00:32:54So I'm doing the lime curd right now, and I'm also going to scale out the white chocolate whipped ganache.

00:32:58I'm not the biggest fan of matcha.

00:33:00Do you like matcha?

00:33:01I love matcha.

00:33:02That's why it was my first thought.

00:33:03I mean, we could have done pistachio cake, but.

00:33:05Right.

00:33:06Matcha is a flavor that can go very bitter very quickly, and we don't want it to be too earthy.

00:33:12We just want to show a little bit of that bitterness to then get balanced with the lime.

00:33:17Right now, oh my God, now I'm throwing myself off.

00:33:22Oh, God.

00:33:23What?

00:33:24Hey.

00:33:25Now I'm like, did I put six in here?

00:33:27Aw.

00:33:30So basically, I am building the cake right here.

00:33:33So for our Slytherin tasting element, we are creating the heart of dark magic.

00:33:38It's going to be a cardamom cake, and then I'm going to add a cardamom Swiss meringue buttercream,

00:33:43a orange curd to add some tartness, some roasted salted pistachios, and it's going to be topped off with some candied orange peel.

00:33:53Cardamom is a really popular flavor in my Indian culture.

00:33:57It's known for being really herbaceous.

00:34:00You know, it has some human powers, and it's kind of magical and mysterious.

00:34:04I really want to win because I want to show the younger me that, you know, you did it.

00:34:08Growing up, when I used to watch all these cooking and baking shows, I never saw someone like me.

00:34:13So I really want to inspire everyone who's watching, who looks like me maybe, to follow their dream.

00:34:18See ya.

00:34:21Oh my gosh, that's so good.

00:34:23Snack time.

00:34:24Everybody get snacks.

00:34:25Hailing from Clermont, Florida, master chocolatier Katie is hyper-competitive and uses her knowledge and book smarts to always be top of the class.

00:34:39A fierce competitor, Juja is Canada's luminary of achievement.

00:34:47His fearless creativity and bold flavors in baking have enabled his rise to international prominence.

00:34:55I'm so glad you're my teammate because we're both really, really driven and ambitious.

00:35:03We're going up the best of the best, and we want to be the best of the best.

00:35:07You know what?

00:35:08What?

00:35:09We're on schedule.

00:35:10Oh my God.

00:35:11That looks delicious.

00:35:14Sponge is going in.

00:35:16Whip ganache is going in.

00:35:17We're good, okay?

00:35:18Yeah, nice.

00:35:19So because I'm the pastry expert of the team, I am doing a stunning layered entremet.

00:35:23And what's that going to be is multiple layers of textures and flavors.

00:35:27Starting with a crunchy base with protein milk chocolate.

00:35:30Then we've got a milk chocolate custard, an incredible caramel sponge.

00:35:33We then have the most amazing chewy caramel.

00:35:36Some crunchy pearls of chocolate.

00:35:38And finally a whipped ganache, which is what I'm making now.

00:35:40And that's going to be a pillow for the diadem to sit on top.

00:35:43I've got my whipped ganache.

00:35:45I'm going to pipe that in.

00:35:46We're then going to paint in all the detail to make sure the mold catches all of that detail.

00:35:50And then I've got my amazing layers to go inside the cake.

00:35:53We've selected a mold which is shaped just like this amazing pillow.

00:35:56And it's just the perfect platform to present the diadem.

00:35:59I grew up with cooking and food in my family.

00:36:02My grandmother was a celebrated chef and cookery author.

00:36:05So going into pastry was natural for me.

00:36:08It's exciting to be here representing sort of the family culinary spirit.

00:36:13Oh yeah.

00:36:14We're going to make the Potterheads proud.

00:36:17Buttoned up executive pastry chef Stefan looks after all the desserts at an exquisite English Yorkshire five-star hotel.

00:36:26His joyful, upbeat persona is reflected in everything he bakes.

00:36:31Arriving from New York, Andy is a creative whirlwind of imagination.

00:36:37He balances all his skills to deliver captivating creations.

00:36:42Will magic happen when their worlds collide?

00:36:46I think that, you know, two different sides of the world come together and make some cool stuff.

00:36:52You know, New Yorkshire.

00:36:57Our biggest risk from a construction standpoint is gravity.

00:37:01It's not cake's friend.

00:37:03Before my very eyes, pieces of the lion's head are falling off.

00:37:08Ooh, this is a mess.

00:37:10I'm going to just have to be a lot more careful.

00:37:12It's a big problem.

00:37:14I mean, it's the focal point.

00:37:16It's got to be perfection.

00:37:17Gryffindor teams, three hours gone.

00:37:20You are halfway through your bank.

00:37:22Wait, what?

00:37:23Oh, my God.

00:37:27I'm hoping with the amount of time we have left that it's a, it's saveable.

00:37:31So we're going to get to it and see what can happen.

00:37:34I used much more chocolate than it was expected, but the chocolate is doing its job and it's holding the rice cereal in its place.

00:37:41We haven't given up yet.

00:37:42We got time to rally.

00:37:44We're trying to blend that tall, skinny, tasting piece that we have into the face, so almost like a little frame.

00:37:52And we're just wanting to make sure that this all stays in its place.

00:37:56I'll definitely be trimming some of this away, but we just need to fill in those little gaps for now.

00:38:03We don't want our lion having a double chin.

00:38:06We're covering the face in fondant so it can be nice and rigid and solid.

00:38:11So happy with it.

00:38:12I couldn't be happier at the moment.

00:38:14Ooh, she pretty.

00:38:16I just need one more egg.

00:38:19For our tasting element, we really wanted the flavor to encompass Ravenclaw.

00:38:24What do you do when you study?

00:38:25You have a nice hot cup of tea.

00:38:26But also, we kind of wanted that to reflect Professor Trelawney because she does the tea

00:38:31leave readings.

00:38:32So we are going for a London Fog inspired cake.

00:38:34It'll be an Earl Grey cake with a Earl Grey milk soak that has a blueberry lavender jam with a vanilla

00:38:40and honey Swiss pouring buttercream.

00:38:42Dressed up as books.

00:38:43So I'm all about natural flavor.

00:38:44So this is right up my alley for making a London Fog cake.

00:38:47So instead of using some weird, like, extract, I'm just going to put Earl Grey tea leaves

00:38:51and make the natural flavor in my cake.

00:38:53This smells so good, Julissa.

00:38:55So once the cakes are out of the oven, I apply the milk soak while it's still warm.

00:38:58So this kind of helps reintroduce the Earl Grey flavor and also a little bit of sweetness.

00:39:02So the hole in the center is to fit through my armature in the bottom where the books are going to sit.

00:39:07So it's got to make a little hole for it so it can sit perfectly inside.

00:39:12Do you want to try the cake?

00:39:15Give me that.

00:39:18I definitely feel confident in us going far in this competition and winning.

00:39:22Oh, we're winning.

00:39:23Hold my butterbeer.

00:39:24Yes.

00:39:26We love Stefan and Andy, but they got to go.

00:39:32Jenny, Alex.

00:39:33Hey.

00:39:34Hello.

00:39:35What does it feel like to be in this kitchen in this competition right now?

00:39:39My mind is blown.

00:39:40I'm very warm.

00:39:41Yeah?

00:39:42But it's a bonkers experience, isn't it?

00:39:43Jenny, have you done this before then?

00:39:44I've done a show before.

00:39:45Do you remember last year's winner, Zoe?

00:39:47Yes.

00:39:48So I was on a show with her.

00:39:49Right, okay, yeah, okay, okay.

00:39:50So it's her fault I'm here.

00:39:53She said to me, enjoy the ride.

00:39:54Okay.

00:39:55You're going to be shattered.

00:39:56No question.

00:39:57No question.

00:39:58And what about other competitions?

00:40:00Well, yes, we have something in the UK called Cake International,

00:40:03and I may have won that in 2022.

00:40:06And then I was voted as the number one cake artist in the UK in 2023.

00:40:10So you're pretty good, that's what I'm guessing then.

00:40:12Yeah, I'm not bad.

00:40:13I'm British, we don't brag.

00:40:14No, exactly, yeah.

00:40:16Is this the first type of bake that you've got to bake a dragon or anything like that?

00:40:20For me it is.

00:40:21Yeah.

00:40:22So I'm a bit nervous, to be honest.

00:40:23Yeah.

00:40:24So what are you doing to push yourselves?

00:40:25I just think we've got a winning concept.

00:40:27I think we've got a cracking idea.

00:40:29We've got some stupid sort of techniques that we're using.

00:40:31You know, for goodness sake, edible skin.

00:40:33We're making also a really super shiny Norbert's chocolate egg.

00:40:38Also some sugar rocks, and you will see we have quite things going on here.

00:40:43I mean, his tasting element down the bottom with the egg is just bananas.

00:40:47It's not really bananas, but you know what I mean.

00:40:50So what are you doing now?

00:40:51So we are smoking the whipped cream.

00:40:53This is a smoke gun.

00:40:55I'm using walnut chips.

00:40:56Walnut chips, all right.

00:40:57Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:40:58Oh, it is smoky.

00:40:59It is smoky, yeah.

00:41:00There you go.

00:41:01So it is coming inside.

00:41:02Smells like bonfire now.

00:41:03Yeah.

00:41:04I mean, it sounds very unique.

00:41:06Bye, boys.

00:41:07See you later.

00:41:08We're planning on meeting a smoke hazelnut nurse with a passion fruit creamer

00:41:12I'm just putting the passion fruit creamer on top of the hazelnut cake,

00:41:17and I'm going to cover it with a mirror glaze.

00:41:20Oh, so the glaze is looking great.

00:41:22It's perfect.

00:41:23It's really shiny.

00:41:25Cool.

00:41:26Done.

00:41:28We are creating little baby mandrakes.

00:41:31I will trim all the layers for building up the instrument,

00:41:34and I will start assembling together with the mousse,

00:41:36and then I'm going to dip in chocolate.

00:41:38I'm making the belly of the baby mandrakes.

00:41:40They're chubby.

00:41:41They are.

00:41:42Although I do feel like they're always kind of angry.

00:41:47Big nose.

00:41:48It's going to be so whimsical.

00:41:50I'm now becoming a make-up artist.

00:41:55Molly, Priya.

00:41:56Hi.

00:41:57First time working as a team.

00:41:58How's it going?

00:41:59Yeah, it's going great.

00:42:00I love having a partner.

00:42:01I'm used to working on my own, so this is nice.

00:42:03What is all that cake for?

00:42:05This is the badger.

00:42:06Roughly probably a life-size badger.

00:42:08They are quite big.

00:42:10How many badgers do you carve on average weekly, would you say?

00:42:13Not loads, but I have done them before.

00:42:15What context was that?

00:42:16Because I can't imagine there being that many.

00:42:18I think it was a plumbing company that were called badger plumbing.

00:42:22That's awesome.

00:42:23I've had my bakery for three years, and it's very pink.

00:42:28It's very fun.

00:42:29It's like if a unicorn went into a bakery, that's what I would have.

00:42:33Molly, I've got to ask.

00:42:34Are you a quick carver like this normally, or...?

00:42:36Yeah.

00:42:37Not quite as sweaty and stressed, but yeah.

00:42:40All the best.

00:42:41We'll see you in there soon.

00:42:43Right now, I'm unmolding the basilisk head that I cast out of chocolate.

00:42:49Oh!

00:42:50Okay.

00:42:51Look at that.

00:42:52Perfect.

00:42:53That's beautiful.

00:42:54Okay, so now I have a base, so I'm gonna make the body and attach it to the head and build off of that.

00:42:59Now I'm an official dentist.

00:43:04Okay, I feel a lot better now that that's done.

00:43:07That's awesome.

00:43:08Perfect.

00:43:09Perfect.

00:43:11I am an assistant pastry chef.

00:43:14I specialize in doing a lot of chocolate and sugar work.

00:43:19My wheelhouse is artistry, honestly.

00:43:22I'm a cake artist, but I've always drawn and sculpted.

00:43:27Our love for pastry and artistry in general really connects us.

00:43:31I feel like all of us here are artists and our art is edible.

00:43:36I like that.

00:43:38With Voldemort's cloak to make it dramatic, we want to really impress the judges.

00:43:42You know, I want this to look really organic and I want the entire cloak all moving in one direction.

00:43:47And Voldemort's cloak will be airbrushed in an emerald green color.

00:43:52I gotta add some shine.

00:43:54I gotta add some highlights.

00:43:56That's really gonna bring this piece to life.

00:43:59Stunning.

00:44:00It's perfect.

00:44:01Caitlin, look.

00:44:03Look, Voldemort.

00:44:04That's cool, dude.

00:44:05Oh, it looks so good.

00:44:07Hi, Caitlin. How are you?

00:44:08Love you.

00:44:09I am painting some blue wafer paper black with glycerin and gel color.

00:44:16It's gonna soften it and I'll be able to cut all of my feathers for the raven out.

00:44:21I'm gonna do individual feathers.

00:44:23I honestly didn't think this would take this long.

00:44:25I'm a little behind.

00:44:27I did not want to be still doing this at this point, but here we are.

00:44:31The most important part of our showpiece is our mascot.

00:44:34And because Caitlin has such strength in hyper realism, she's definitely gonna take lead on that.

00:44:40These are sticking together.

00:44:41Huh?

00:44:42These are sticking together.

00:44:44My feathers completely didn't work.

00:44:47I don't know if I added too much glycerin or the water completely dissolved it, but they're so flimsy.

00:44:53It falls apart and the other ones are sticking to the tray.

00:44:56So, okay, this is definitely not how I thought today.

00:44:59It was gonna be untumbled real quick.

00:45:02I wasted an hour for no reason and now I don't know what to do.

00:45:06It really sucks.

00:45:11These are sticking together.

00:45:12Huh?

00:45:13These are sticking together.

00:45:15My feathers completely didn't work.

00:45:17Okay, full pivot.

00:45:18I'm just gonna have to do white and airbrush it.

00:45:20Yeah.

00:45:21I mean, it's not gonna be black black, but it'll be...

00:45:22Black enough.

00:45:23Yeah.

00:45:24So, I have to fix my feathers.

00:45:26I'm just gonna cut all the feathers and individually airbrush them.

00:45:29Airbrushing's working.

00:45:30Okay.

00:45:31Now it looks good.

00:45:32This is the last thing I wanted to do.

00:45:34Before I was cool as a cucumber, but now I am having full crash out moment.

00:45:39I am feeling behind, but as soon as I can get these feathers on this last wing, I can start

00:45:44moving rather quickly.

00:45:45You know, famous last words.

00:45:46Julie, so we cannot go home.

00:45:48You know, we're not going home.

00:45:50So now I'm starting to build the body of my raven, so I just want to get the body set

00:45:57and covered in ganache so that I can start sculpting it.

00:46:01I do want to spend a lot of time on making sure this raven looks 100%.

00:46:06I'm using modeling chocolate just to model the beak, the eyes, and get all that feather

00:46:11work in the face area.

00:46:13I think I'm on the right track.

00:46:15To create these feathers, I'm taking tempered chocolate.

00:46:20We have hundreds of feathers to make and then to stick onto the wings.

00:46:23And we're kind of getting to a stage where we're a little bit worried if we can actually

00:46:26do it.

00:46:27And I need to start working on Hagrid.

00:46:30This is black modeling paste.

00:46:31This is where I'm going to be attaching all the sparkly lights when Norbert fires his

00:46:36burp at his beard.

00:46:37I'm going to do his face up the top, but just his nose and his goggles.

00:46:42A really big bushy beard.

00:46:44It's actually edible corn silk.

00:46:46I'm quite happy actually.

00:46:47Oh, that's perfect.

00:46:50So I'm going to add some more detail.

00:46:52I love it.

00:46:53Our showpiece was really a celebration of earth and growth.

00:46:57And so we'll have mushrooms and snails and slugs.

00:47:01Oh, I love those guys.

00:47:03Cute.

00:47:04So cute.

00:47:05I'm making the snails made from textured fondant and modeling paste.

00:47:09I'm really obsessed with color and making sure things visually look balanced.

00:47:13Woo!

00:47:14Great.

00:47:16Ravenclaw teams, you still have two hours to go.

00:47:20Slytherin teams, there's 90 minutes left in the Slytherin jewel.

00:47:24Ah!

00:47:25Ow!

00:47:26Hey.

00:47:27Wow, we got to hustle.

00:47:28I have to pour this boiling hot isomalt onto the spiral.

00:47:33Here we go.

00:47:34Water is our magical element.

00:47:36So this is a cascading swirl going upwards looking like water.

00:47:40And I'll use a couple of mediums of isomalt.

00:47:42Some pulled, some ribboning, and then some spun sugar.

00:47:45It's a little dangerous, truthfully.

00:47:47We haven't tested it.

00:47:48We don't know.

00:47:49I've never poured spiral isomalt.

00:47:51It's kind of insane, yeah, because this whole showpiece can just all fall apart.

00:47:55Looks good.

00:47:56Like, it looks like water.

00:47:57Okay.

00:47:59Stefan, Andy.

00:48:00How are you guys finding working together?

00:48:02So far it's been awesome working with Andy and we're having fun.

00:48:05How much of a Potter fan are you then, Stefan?

00:48:07Well, yeah, I love the Harry Potter movies, but I've got an interesting connection.

00:48:11We actually shared a scene together in the first movie.

00:48:13Yeah.

00:48:14Oh!

00:48:15I was stood in the background, yeah, and they recruited the extras from the locals from the area.

00:48:19Our job is to make sure that you don't get flooded up too bad.

00:48:22Can't make any promises, of course.

00:48:24Yeah.

00:48:25That scene was actually the first scene that we had dialogue.

00:48:27Oh, seriously?

00:48:28Oh, wow, that's your first dialogue scene?

00:48:29Yeah, that scene.

00:48:30What scene were you in in Harry Potter?

00:48:32Oh, you know.

00:48:33Because everyone at this table has been, you see, so.

00:48:35But at least you can say you filmed in the Great Hall now.

00:48:37Right?

00:48:38Exactly.

00:48:43I don't like that.

00:48:44I am freaking out because I've lost all this time with the feathers and now I am completely

00:48:49hand sculpting the body of this raven.

00:48:51I grab my black modeling chocolate.

00:48:53I just kind of like lump it on.

00:48:55I don't care.

00:48:56I don't care.

00:48:57And I'm basically just going triple time, slashing away at the red

00:49:02body and the head and making these little striations to make it look like it's got its fur and its feathers.

00:49:09I took my aggravation out on it.

00:49:12Chalisa, I feel like I'm going to puke.

00:49:14Don't puke.

00:49:15Gryffindor teams, one hour to go.

00:49:21Hashtag newbie problems.

00:49:27Oh, my gosh!

00:49:32What?

00:49:33Did someone say we're making a sequel?

00:49:38Bakers, I'd like you to meet your judges.

00:49:41Hello.

00:49:42Hi!

00:49:43Hello, bakers!

00:49:44Hello, bakers!

00:49:45Hi!

00:49:46Carla and Joseph, oh, my gosh.

00:49:50I am just, I don't know, I don't know how to feel.

00:49:53I'm sweaty, I'm shaky.

00:49:54So how's it working out on this first challenge?

00:49:57You excited?

00:49:58Yes!

00:49:59Excited.

00:50:00Well, good.

00:50:02So we just dropped by to wish you some good luck and to let you know all season long we'll be judging your cakes on story, execution, and taste.

00:50:11And we also have some news.

00:50:14Oh, boy.

00:50:15Oh!

00:50:16This challenge is all about your four head-to-head duels.

00:50:22If you win yours, you're through to the next round.

00:50:26But if you don't, Joseph and I can only save two losing teams.

00:50:35Whoa.

00:50:36Wow.

00:50:37That means two teams will be leaving the competition.

00:50:43Oh, boy.

00:50:44We're gonna leave you to think about that, but rest assured, we can't wait to taste your Hogwarts house creations.

00:50:54So we'll see you all in the great hall.

00:50:57See you there.

00:50:58The judges dropped a bit of a bombshell.

00:51:01Oh, my gosh.

00:51:02My guts are like, ugh.

00:51:04I feel like I might pass out or throw up right now.

00:51:07Can I go somewhere else?

00:51:09I panic a little bit.

00:51:11There's so much pressure.

00:51:20Gryffindor teams, you have 30 minutes left.

00:51:24Oh.

00:51:25I feel a lot better.

00:51:27Thank you very much.

00:51:28You're very well.

00:51:29It's my first time ever competing like this, and it's scary to put yourself out there,

00:51:33but you kind of put on a brave face and you get it done, just like true Gryffindors do.

00:51:38Gonna make it happen.

00:51:43Whoa, come on.

00:51:44Can I ever tell you I'm not very delicate?

00:51:46Yes, several times.

00:51:48Careful with those.

00:51:49Yeah.

00:51:50We're making a little stack of textbooks that'll go next to the lion head.

00:51:54So just cutting them to size.

00:51:56We've packed as much detail as we can into it while working up against the clock.

00:52:00We're gonna make the scarf happen.

00:52:02Just giving it that knit feel.

00:52:05At the moment I'm considering fainting.

00:52:07Don't.

00:52:08No, I'm really seriously not very good.

00:52:10Okay, Gryffindor house teams.

00:52:13A resto momentum.

00:52:15Time is up.

00:52:17Heather and Kate, Jenny and Alex, grab what you can and our house elves will help with the rest.

00:52:23When you get to the great hall, you'll have just five minutes to assemble your bakes, ready to cast a spell on our judges.

00:52:33Look at this.

00:52:34There's a little bit of anxiety.

00:52:35Will the judges like it?

00:52:37Could we have done more?

00:52:40It's all looking gorgeous.

00:52:42Don't worry.

00:52:43Don't panic.

00:52:44I'm not panicking.

00:52:45Are you panicking?

00:52:46No, darling.

00:52:47Hello, Gryffindor teams.

00:53:02It's simple.

00:53:04Our winning team from this duel will move safely through to the next challenge.

00:53:10The other team will be in danger of having their journey end before it really begins.

00:53:21It's Norbit.

00:53:22It's Norbit.

00:53:23It's Norbit's mummy.

00:53:25Norbit's mummy.

00:53:27You've even got his oven mitts in there.

00:53:29I love the textures that you have throughout and especially on the beard there.

00:53:33Oh, it looks really good.

00:53:35Oh, I get this.

00:53:39You can turn the lights in.

00:53:40Oh, my God.

00:53:41It is so good.

00:53:42I love it.

00:53:43When he burps.

00:53:44That's a great part of the story, too.

00:53:47Thank you so much.

00:53:48Let's move on to the execution.

00:53:50I love the colors.

00:53:52Lovely sheen on that chocolate.

00:53:53I mean, that looks...

00:53:55That's tempering at its best.

00:53:56Thanks, Chef.

00:53:57I think you guys did a great job.

00:53:59Thanks.

00:54:00Now, it's time for taste.

00:54:01Okay.

00:54:02So, I'm just gonna take this one out.

00:54:06Oh, wow.

00:54:07There you go.

00:54:08Here we go.

00:54:09There you go.

00:54:11Enjoy.

00:54:12Enjoy.

00:54:13I love the little dragon.

00:54:15I love the mirror glaze.

00:54:16The mirror glaze is beautiful.

00:54:17Very nicely done.

00:54:18Okay.

00:54:19So, we decided to make a smoked hazelnut mousse.

00:54:21It is like if baby Norbert's finish the dessert, you know?

00:54:25I love it.

00:54:26And I decided to make a passion fruit cremeux.

00:54:29And also, we have this amazing roasted hazelnut cake.

00:54:33I'm like this.

00:54:34I'm like this.

00:54:35I'm like this.

00:54:36I'm like this.

00:54:37I really like the flavors.

00:54:38And the smokiness?

00:54:39Lost.

00:54:40Oh.

00:54:41To me.

00:54:42I think it's perfect.

00:54:43Only because if it was too much smoke, it would blow everything out.

00:54:46You guys have such a nice balance.

00:54:48Your flavor profiles that you've got, I think they're wonderful.

00:54:51Thank you so much.

00:54:52Thank you very much.

00:54:54Wow.

00:54:55Courage.

00:54:56Ooh, that's cool.

00:54:57That brings it to life, doesn't it?

00:54:58Yeah, it really does.

00:54:59Yeah.

00:55:00All the kind of main symbols and emblems of it.

00:55:05You've got the lion.

00:55:06You've got the scarf there.

00:55:07You've got the sword of Gryffindor.

00:55:09So, what do we think of the storytelling here, Carla?

00:55:12I like it.

00:55:13Those Gryffindor traits of courage, determination, bravery.

00:55:18I mean, nothing embodies this more than this.

00:55:23I think you'd make Godric Gryffindor proud with this piece.

00:55:27Let's talk about execution.

00:55:28I love the coloring.

00:55:30The texture on the fabric of the scarf.

00:55:33The texture and the detailing on the spines of the books.

00:55:38Everything is really beautifully executed.

00:55:41Talk to us about your tasting element.

00:55:44It's Adsi cutting in such a magnificent beast.

00:55:47I know.

00:55:48So sorry.

00:55:49So our tasting element involves a rhubarb and blood orange compote.

00:55:53Paired with a honey crema.

00:55:57Some white chocolate milk crumb just for a little bit of crunch.

00:55:59And a buttermilk cake.

00:56:01Oh.

00:56:06My kneecaps are quivering.

00:56:08I think the rhubarb and blood orange is a very nice acidity.

00:56:12I think maybe another layer of the blood orange.

00:56:15Yes.

00:56:16You have white chocolate.

00:56:17You have honey.

00:56:18You have all of those sort of creamy, sweet notes.

00:56:22And then that would just balance it out.

00:56:24I like this cake.

00:56:26Look, it's good.

00:56:28But good is the enemy of grace, as they say.

00:56:31Thank you very much.

00:56:32Thank you, ladies.

00:56:34Appreciate it.

00:56:35Two great Gryffindor showpieces, but there can only be one winner.

00:56:44We've decided the victorious Gryffindor team in this duel, safely through to the next round

00:56:53of this competition are Jenny and Alex.

00:57:06You are safe from elimination.

00:57:09Well done.

00:57:10Well done.

00:57:11We won.

00:57:12We won.

00:57:13That's what happened.

00:57:14We won.

00:57:16But what that does mean, Heather and Kate, your place is at risk.

00:57:22We'll see you back here once we've judged all of the duels.

00:57:29I feel a little bit like I let Heather down because I'm kind of the flavor person here.

00:57:34And it could be the thing that sends us home, or it could be the thing that sends us on to the next challenge.

00:57:38This is a great start, and I can't wait to see what's next.

00:57:41Yeah.

00:57:45One hour to go, Slytherin teams.

00:57:47Oh, my gosh.

00:57:48Hustle.

00:57:49Hustle.

00:57:50Hufflepuffs, you have 30 minutes remaining.

00:57:54Detail, detail, details.

00:57:56I need to finish this face.

00:57:57The airbrushing takes it to another level.

00:57:59Sometimes if you add a little bit of black shading or dark brown, it gives it another element of realism.

00:58:06This is intense baking and time slipping away.

00:58:10Okay, Hufflepuff teams.

00:58:11Five minutes to go.

00:58:12Where do you want the pots?

00:58:13Do one full and then one lay down.

00:58:14You don't want it all mixed, right?

00:58:15Just a little bit.

00:58:16Hufflepuffs, time is up.

00:58:17It's gorgeous.

00:58:18Yeah, it's gorgeous, to be fair.

00:58:19We did it!

00:58:20I think we did a great job.

00:58:21It's nice and clean.

00:58:22The little major eggs are beautiful with the big bellies.

00:58:23All the elements are there.

00:58:24We feel great.

00:58:25We're done and that's a huge relief.

00:58:27I hope they see how much work and technique and skill has gone into it.

00:58:43I think we did a great job.

00:58:44It's nice and clean.

00:58:45The little major eggs are beautiful with big bellies.

00:58:48Old elements are there.

00:58:49We feel great.

00:58:50We're done and that's a huge relief.

00:58:52Technique and skill has gone into it

00:58:57Hello

00:58:59Wow, look at all of this

00:59:01I mean

00:59:02That looks like straight up taxidermy

00:59:04I mean the snail, it looks nice and wet

00:59:08Like its leaves, its slime

00:59:09Anywhere else that wouldn't be a great compliment

00:59:12But

00:59:12You're loving the slugs, aren't you?

00:59:15I'm loving the greenhouse

00:59:17I think the story, incredible

00:59:19You didn't need to say a word, we got it

00:59:21Yeah, you look at this and you know

00:59:22What house this is representing

00:59:24I think execution

00:59:26Everything is executed beautifully

00:59:28The texture, I mean

00:59:30And the eyes

00:59:31Look at that

00:59:34No, but the devil is in the detail, that's incredible

00:59:36Really, and you've certainly

00:59:38Delivered on the house element of earth

00:59:41You really have

00:59:42And then we've got some

00:59:43Growth coming from the earth as well

00:59:47Growth

00:59:47Oh

00:59:50Oh, oh, oh

00:59:51Here we go

00:59:52Oh

00:59:53Oh

00:59:54So what is the tasting element?

00:59:57So for our tasting element today

00:59:59We're doing a black sesame and yuzu

01:00:01Cake

01:00:02Oh, you got a slug

01:00:04Oh

01:00:05I love it

01:00:06We've done the sponge yellow

01:00:08And then we've got a sesame nuggetine in there

01:00:11A yuzu curd

01:00:12The acidity of the yuzu is perfect

01:00:19Black sesame overpowers a little

01:00:21The sesame nuggetine is really nice

01:00:23I don't know if the balance was there

01:00:25Okay

01:00:26All right, thank you so much

01:00:27Thank you

01:00:28Wow, we know what this is

01:00:34Oh my gosh

01:00:36This is one of the most iconic plants

01:00:39Absolutely

01:00:39You know

01:00:40You know exactly where this is from

01:00:42You know exactly what you're trying to say with it

01:00:45From a story point of view

01:00:46You've definitely nailed it

01:00:47Thank you

01:00:48Detailing looks incredible on this

01:00:51I love the leaves

01:00:52I love the mandrakes themselves

01:00:54All of the different faces

01:00:56Full of character

01:00:56And we've got the Hufflepuff colors

01:00:59Oh, yes

01:00:59Don't forget

01:00:59I think just to be safe

01:01:03You guys should probably put this on

01:01:05Okay

01:01:06It's so interactive

01:01:10You look cute though

01:01:11Oh my god

01:01:14Yes

01:01:15Oh, oh

01:01:18Ooh

01:01:19Ooh, it's moving

01:01:21Love it

01:01:27Oh

01:01:28Oh my gosh

01:01:29Fantastic

01:01:30I love it

01:01:31I love the movement up and down

01:01:32I love the mouth

01:01:33That execution I think is great

01:01:35All right

01:01:36So let's taste it

01:01:37Well, first of all

01:01:38I would like to say

01:01:38A huge honor to be judged

01:01:40By Chef Joseph

01:01:42Because it's been over a decade

01:01:44That I follow your work

01:01:45Thank you

01:01:46And all this multisensory experience

01:01:48So we use the Szechuan peppers

01:01:49Which has like this numbing effect

01:01:51In our tongue

01:01:52So we did the white chocolate mousse

01:01:57With the coriander seeds

01:01:58Angel did an amazing

01:01:59Toffee caramel with Szechuan peppers

01:02:01And then there's a thin layer of pate-free

01:02:03With pear and fennel

01:02:05And the cake soaked in whiskey syrup

01:02:08No, I'm getting a little zing

01:02:10I am

01:02:11Which I think is good

01:02:12Because to be honest with you

01:02:14You don't want it going too far

01:02:15The other way as well

01:02:16Where you end up with a really numb

01:02:17Petrified tongue

01:02:18No, I actually think that

01:02:20That's got a really nice balance to it

01:02:22I get the acid

01:02:23I get the creaminess

01:02:24I get the Szechuan

01:02:25And then it's almost like

01:02:27My mouth is watering for another bite

01:02:30Are you not salivating?

01:02:32I am salivating

01:02:33What's a good dessert

01:02:34If it doesn't make you salivate?

01:02:36We're literally salivating

01:02:38Wanting that next bite

01:02:40Carla

01:02:40Look at me tucking away into it

01:02:43With my tongue numbingly salivating

01:02:46Yes

01:02:48This is an experience

01:02:50We are not soon to forget

01:02:51It was incredible

01:02:52Absolutely

01:02:53Thank you

01:02:54Return

01:02:55Teams

01:03:01There can only be one winner

01:03:04The team

01:03:13Moving on in the competition

01:03:15Is Ruin Angel

01:03:22Molly and Priya

01:03:28It's lucky that patience

01:03:30Is a Hufflepuff trait

01:03:31Because

01:03:32You won't find out your fate

01:03:34Until a little later

01:03:36We'll see you at the elimination

01:03:38We're not going to go home

01:03:41I just

01:03:42I'm quietly confident

01:03:43Is that jinxing it?

01:03:50Okay

01:03:51So we're down to our final four teams

01:03:53Slytherin teams

01:03:55We have 30 minutes left for you

01:03:57Ooh

01:03:58Marge

01:03:59What do you think about

01:04:00Something like this

01:04:01For the fang?

01:04:02That's amazing

01:04:03The judges will take

01:04:05The basilisk fang

01:04:06And stab Tom Riddle's diary

01:04:08Which will then

01:04:09Ooze red ink

01:04:10I'm going to fill up

01:04:11A little water balloon

01:04:13With it

01:04:13And then I'm going to

01:04:15Practice poking it

01:04:16With an exacto knife

01:04:17Alright Marge

01:04:18Ooh

01:04:19That's nasty

01:04:21Yeah that's a good consistency

01:04:22Does this look like a good size

01:04:24For the Tom Riddle diary?

01:04:25Yeah

01:04:26We're going to

01:04:27You know

01:04:27Carve it out

01:04:28As long as there's room

01:04:29For that balloon in there

01:04:30For sure

01:04:30We need to get our

01:04:31Isomalt spiral on

01:04:32And now both of us

01:04:34Have to get this entire

01:04:35Spiral of our piece

01:04:36And this is the hardest thing

01:04:38What if it's the wrong size?

01:04:40What if it doesn't fit?

01:04:41We don't even know

01:04:42Yeah

01:04:43Oh my god

01:04:43Please

01:04:46Please

01:04:46Please don't crack

01:04:47Please don't crack

01:04:48I'm like

01:04:49I'm so nervous

01:04:50My heart

01:04:50I'm sweating

01:04:51I'm good

01:04:52I'm good

01:04:53Oh my gosh

01:04:54Nearly everything can

01:04:56All shatter into pieces

01:04:58The spiral can nick into Voldemort

01:05:00The Tom's slowly going down

01:05:02Clearing the elbow

01:05:02Other arm

01:05:04I hear the crack

01:05:06I hear the cracker

01:05:07Oh okay

01:05:08Here goes a piece

01:05:09It's okay

01:05:10I'm spinning

01:05:10Okay

01:05:11And it's down

01:05:12How does outside look?

01:05:15It's good

01:05:16We did it

01:05:16It didn't break

01:05:17It didn't break

01:05:18Okay

01:05:20Slytherin teams

01:05:21Are you alright mate?

01:05:29Yeah

01:05:29I'm just telling Slytherin

01:05:30They've got 10 minutes left

01:05:31You know

01:05:31Passing some

01:05:32Okay

01:05:35We're almost there

01:05:36The clock is winding down

01:05:40So as a team

01:05:41We really have to prioritize

01:05:43Not my best work

01:05:44But diary is done

01:05:46This piece is pretty ambitious

01:05:48Basically three different levels

01:05:50But at this point

01:05:51We have to sacrifice things

01:05:53Like details

01:05:54For the sake of time

01:05:56I'm just going to do

01:05:57Two different shades of green

01:05:58For the stalagmites

01:05:59You're good Marge

01:06:01You got this

01:06:02You got this

01:06:03I believe in you

01:06:03Don't break

01:06:04Don't break

01:06:05Stay there

01:06:05Stay like this

01:06:07Okay Slytherin teams

01:06:09Six

01:06:09Five

01:06:10Four

01:06:11Three

01:06:12Two

01:06:13One

01:06:14A rest of momentum

01:06:15Your time is up

01:06:17Marge

01:06:20That was madness

01:06:22Madness

01:06:23Oh my gosh

01:06:24We did it

01:06:25We did it

01:06:26We did it

01:06:27Marge and Sarah

01:06:29Marge and Sarah

01:06:29It's time to present

01:06:30Your superb showpieces

01:06:33This is such an ambitious piece

01:06:42This is such an ambitious piece

01:06:43But I think I really showed the judges

01:06:44That we are here to compete at the top level

01:06:47We thought our showpiece is going to be tall

01:06:53But I'm seeing even larger than life

01:06:55On the other side of the room

01:06:56I'm very nervous

01:06:58You're good Marge

01:06:59Breathe

01:07:00I gotcha

01:07:01Well if it isn't the bad boys and girls of baking

01:07:10The Slytherin teams

01:07:12It's time to judge your head to head duel

01:07:15Oh my god I'm so

01:07:17Marge and Sarah

01:07:20Alright I'm interested in what you think about this

01:07:23Because you are a fellow Slytherin

01:07:25Well I am yeah

01:07:26We're on home turf here

01:07:27So this is obviously the chamber of secrets at the bottom

01:07:30It's got some lovely details

01:07:31Even though you've got the basilisk fang there

01:07:33And Tom Riddle's diary

01:07:35So if you have the urge to stab it with our basilisk fang

01:07:40I'm not going to say no

01:07:41Oh wow

01:07:42Yeah be careful with it

01:07:43Yeah

01:07:44Oh okay here we go

01:07:46There we go

01:07:49Oh

01:07:50That's cool

01:07:50Okay the water is bubbling up

01:07:51I like dark things

01:07:53So I think that's a really really cool effect

01:07:55Look story wise

01:07:56I love that you guys have transported us to somewhere

01:07:59But do I feel you've necessarily told us a story with it

01:08:02I don't know

01:08:02Yeah I agree

01:08:03In terms of execution

01:08:05I thought the bubbling of the water

01:08:07The colour

01:08:08The smoke

01:08:09Tom Riddle's diary

01:08:10Looks really great

01:08:11I would have liked more stalagmites

01:08:13Stalactites

01:08:14Around here

01:08:15I just think sometimes the little finishing details

01:08:18That is what really takes something from being a nice piece

01:08:21To an incredible showpiece

01:08:23But now I think what we need to do is try the tasting element

01:08:26Yes

01:08:27Well let me ask you this

01:08:28So do we need to speak proselytongue

01:08:30Or maybe you do

01:08:31To actually get some of the cake

01:08:33I would love to hear it

01:08:35There we go

01:08:40Not bad

01:08:41That was great

01:08:42Well it didn't work

01:08:43Well I didn't say I was fluke

01:08:45So we made a matcha cake

01:08:49With a lime curd

01:08:51And a white chocolate whipped ganache

01:08:53With some ginger toffee pieces

01:08:55That's a real slithering green there for you isn't it

01:08:58Oh my gosh

01:09:01That's good right?

01:09:05My face doesn't lie

01:09:07I think that the ratio of cream to cake is perfect

01:09:12The matcha you hit the nail on the head

01:09:14I would get a doggy bag of this

01:09:16Oh thank you

01:09:18Oh my god

01:09:21Jujar and Katie

01:09:24The Order of the Phoenix

01:09:25This is I'm guessing a final battle between Voldemort and Dumbledore

01:09:29It is

01:09:30Stuff of legends

01:09:31Yes

01:09:31Yeah you definitely tell the story

01:09:33The movement of this piece

01:09:34Yeah you have a great sense of motion in this

01:09:36And I love the way you kind of represented the water

01:09:38You've done several different textures to build that up as opposed to just having one isomalt

01:09:42That's really cool

01:09:43Thank you

01:09:44Looks great

01:09:44I mean really great on execution

01:09:46Thank you

01:09:47Let's move on to taste

01:09:49We're calling this the heart of the dark magic

01:09:52Oh I like that

01:09:53We did a cardamom cake

01:09:56It has a cardamom simple syrup

01:09:58An orange curd

01:10:00Cardamom Swiss meringue buttercream

01:10:02Candied oranges

01:10:03And some salted pistachios

01:10:05I've never had a cardamom cake before

01:10:09I think that's brilliant

01:10:11I like the zing of the citrus

01:10:14I really like the salted pistachios

01:10:17But I kind of feel they could be a bit crunchier

01:10:19Okay, so, oh well, do you like it, Karla?

01:10:23What the fuck they say

01:10:24All of the flavors work

01:10:27The crumb of the cake is so good

01:10:32Thank you

01:10:33Thank you guys

01:10:34The team that's come out on top in this duel

01:10:43Is

01:10:46Jujar and K2

01:10:50Thank you

01:10:52I'm so relieved

01:10:54There's so much work that went into this piece

01:10:55And it feels like the longest day ever

01:10:57But we wanted it very, very much

01:10:59Good job, guys

01:11:00Marge and Sarah

01:11:02Unfortunately

01:11:04That puts you in our bottom four teams

01:11:07And we can only save two

01:11:10So you're in for a bit of a nervous wait

01:11:13I am trying to stay positive

01:11:15You never know what's going to happen

01:11:16Ravenclaw teams

01:11:21You are our final duel

01:11:24Right, so diadems are done

01:11:26Wonderful

01:11:26Just 30 minutes left, Ravenclaws

01:11:29I'm making sure I don't spell anything wrong

01:11:31One of the last things

01:11:33Is the handwriting and calligraphy

01:11:35On the individual pages of our book

01:11:37Which will be the riddle

01:11:38I really need to get started on sculpting

01:11:40The rest of the book

01:11:41I'm very stressed out

01:11:43And I wasted a lot of time

01:11:45I'm not happy

01:11:46This is definitely not how I wanted this to go

01:11:49I mean, honestly, we're running out of time

01:11:51Breathe

01:11:52We want to make sure we incorporate a lot of air

01:11:56Because that's our element

01:11:56So this is supposed to be our magical gust

01:11:59So first I get some modeling chocolate

01:12:01And I start to marble it slightly

01:12:03To give it more dimension

01:12:04Go for like light and airy

01:12:05And I start to put it on my showpiece

01:12:08Every time I put it on

01:12:11It just keeps falling

01:12:11And it keeps falling

01:12:12And it keeps falling

01:12:13It was very, very frustrating

01:12:15Just stick a little bit

01:12:16The fact that I'm doing this

01:12:19Over and over and over

01:12:20Is making me lose it

01:12:21Oh my god

01:12:23And I'm trying to like keep my cool

01:12:25But I'm like

01:12:26If this does not stick

01:12:27It's not going to look like anything

01:12:28It'll be an empty tube

01:12:29It's totally fine

01:12:32Okay, the best technique to get it on

01:12:38Is to get a hot gun

01:12:39Or a heat gun

01:12:40And heat up the modeling chocolate

01:12:41Because chocolate melts, right?

01:12:43So now that it's soft

01:12:44It sticks

01:12:45Is it working better?

01:12:47Yeah, I gotta pinch it on the edge

01:12:49But we need to also remember time

01:12:50So I'm just pushing stuff on

01:12:52It was just like

01:12:53I'm not happy with how the gust came out

01:12:57Because some parts could have definitely

01:12:58Been smoother than others

01:12:59When you do this at home

01:13:00It's like you plan for weeks

01:13:02You take your time

01:13:03To make sure everything's precise

01:13:04And here it's just like

01:13:05Slap it on

01:13:06I swear I'm a better artist than this

01:13:09All right

01:13:10Just ten minutes to go

01:13:12I have never done a showpiece like this before

01:13:16Now I'm trying to go triple time on these books

01:13:19I've lost way too much time

01:13:21Just trying to have a finished showpiece at this point

01:13:23You guide it with your hand

01:13:24Make sure it doesn't hit the raven

01:13:25Yeah, you're good

01:13:26You're good

01:13:26Actually grab the bottom of the shield

01:13:28Okay

01:13:28If you can

01:13:28Going into head-to-head competition is tough

01:13:31We've gone for height

01:13:32We've gone for a lot of chocolate on there

01:13:33Wow

01:13:34It's not my best work

01:13:35But at the end of the day

01:13:36Like I'm really proud of us

01:13:38Jalisa

01:13:38Okay

01:13:39Ravenclaw teams

01:13:42A rest of momentum

01:13:43Your time is up

01:13:45I'm sorry

01:13:46I'm sorry we had to pivot so much

01:13:48We did it

01:13:49We did it

01:13:50We did it

01:13:50That's as good as it's gonna get

01:13:52Everything has to get put on just in the right spot

01:14:01And the details

01:14:02They're very delicate

01:14:03So worried

01:14:03Take your time

01:14:05There you go

01:14:06I've got one more feather on in

01:14:07Then we can pick this as well

01:14:08We've got to hope that the judges love what we do

01:14:10And that we can progress

01:14:12And win the head-to-head

01:14:13Oh my god

01:14:14Hello Ravenclaw teams

01:14:20It's time to judge your efforts

01:14:22And to find out which Ravenclaw showpiece

01:14:25Really took flight

01:14:27Caitlin and Jalisa

01:14:28Wow

01:14:30This makes you want to study right

01:14:31This is the raven creating a whirlwind of air

01:14:35We've got a wand down there

01:14:37Wingardium Leviosa

01:14:40There you go

01:14:41Wow

01:14:44It feels a bit menacing up there

01:14:47The way it's kind of coming towards us

01:14:49Great use of air as your house element

01:14:51Sort of this whirlwind turning

01:14:53Story

01:14:54We're getting all of your elements

01:14:55I do like the composition of what you've got

01:14:58But I don't know if it necessarily tells me a story

01:15:00On execution

01:15:01Look guys you've got some great detail in there

01:15:04I love some of the textures that you guys have used

01:15:06The wings on the bird look great

01:15:08I like the little sugar bubbles

01:15:10You've got a lot of different technique going on here

01:15:12But the kind of sense of levitation that you're getting there

01:15:16The elements look quite heavy

01:15:18Yeah

01:15:18With the modeling chocolate

01:15:20I think you just needed a lighter medium

01:15:22Yeah

01:15:23Maybe like pulled sugar or something

01:15:24The books

01:15:25I feel like the pages needed to be a little bit more detailed

01:15:29And that's what really is required to make these show pieces stand out

01:15:33Now let's talk about the tasting element

01:15:37Yeah so because we are representing Ravenclaw

01:15:40Professor Trelawney in one of the classes that she teaches

01:15:43Is how to read the tea leaves

01:15:44So we decided to go with a tea inspired flavor cake

01:15:46Love it

01:15:47So this is our take on London fog

01:15:49So it is an earl grey cake with a earl grey milk soak

01:15:52It's a blueberry lavender jam

01:15:54With a honey vanilla Swiss meringue buttercream

01:15:56Yum

01:15:57Nice

01:15:57You were telling me London fog's one of your favorites

01:15:59It is

01:16:00I love a London fog beverage

01:16:02I love the flavors

01:16:09What I am not enjoying are the bits of tea

01:16:12So I think what you need it to do

01:16:15All right

01:16:16Is um

01:16:20Maybe take the sugar

01:16:21Pulse it with a tea

01:16:24So it's finer

01:16:25It's sticking in my teeth

01:16:26It's not really pleasant

01:16:27It's rehydrated in the batter

01:16:29Oh okay

01:16:29That makes sense

01:16:30The favor of the earl grey is lovely

01:16:31It comes through nice and clean

01:16:33The crumb for me is very dry

01:16:35You're thinking about the ratios of what you have

01:16:39I think there needed to be more jam

01:16:41I think it's probably dry

01:16:42Because once that tea rehydrates

01:16:44It absorbs

01:16:45It's soaked up a lot of the

01:16:46Moisture from your cake

01:16:47Yeah

01:16:47That makes a lot of sense

01:16:49Scientifically

01:16:49Yeah

01:16:50Your cake is not

01:16:53Where I think you wanted it to be

01:16:55Thank you guys

01:16:56Thank you

01:16:57Regardless of what happens

01:16:59I love our showpiece

01:17:00And that's

01:17:01That's it

01:17:02Hello gents

01:17:07Oh look at that

01:17:11Wow

01:17:11Raven

01:17:12We've got the colours

01:17:13We've got the blue

01:17:14The silver

01:17:15The scarf

01:17:16Right there

01:17:16That looks very nicely knitted

01:17:18So this is the dye then

01:17:20That belongs to Ruana Ravenclaw

01:17:22Mmhmm

01:17:22We've got the book of riddles

01:17:24It would seem

01:17:25We love a riddle

01:17:26We love a riddle

01:17:27I have no voice

01:17:28But I can speak

01:17:29I have no body

01:17:31But I can't move

01:17:32I have no hands

01:17:33But I can feel your skin

01:17:35The element of air

01:17:38That is correct

01:17:39Wind

01:17:39Air

01:17:40Very good

01:17:41Top of the class

01:17:42Joseph

01:17:42Oh

01:17:43Oh

01:17:46Oh

01:17:47Oh

01:17:48Oh

01:17:49Oh

01:17:50Oh

01:17:53Oh

01:17:54Oh

01:17:54Very cool

01:17:55Oh

01:17:56I love it

01:17:58I love that

01:17:59I tell you

01:18:00I love the book

01:18:01I love how light

01:18:03The pages look

01:18:04In terms of story

01:18:05We get Ravenclaw

01:18:06In terms of the execution

01:18:07I love the textures

01:18:09That you guys have

01:18:10From the wings

01:18:10This little detailing here

01:18:12Is beautiful

01:18:13I love that

01:18:14This is

01:18:14Yeah

01:18:14And if we're going to go

01:18:16Into the details here

01:18:17I love the book

01:18:17And I love the page

01:18:18I think there could have been

01:18:19Other text on other pages

01:18:21Yeah

01:18:21That's one of the things

01:18:22I have to say

01:18:22About being in this space

01:18:24Where we are

01:18:25The devil is in the detail

01:18:26Every corner

01:18:27Right

01:18:27You look in

01:18:28And I just think

01:18:29Having one random riddle there

01:18:31I think it would have been nice

01:18:32Maybe to have other

01:18:33Ravenclaw related content images

01:18:37Whatever on the other pages

01:18:38Little details

01:18:39And then the feathers

01:18:40And then the feathers

01:18:41So the only way to follow

01:18:45That explosion

01:18:46Is to taste

01:18:48Obviously displaying

01:18:49The beautiful dilemma

01:18:50We've created this

01:18:52Velvet style pillar

01:18:52For it to sit upon

01:18:53And inside there

01:18:54We've layered up

01:18:55Multiple flavours

01:18:56And textures

01:18:56We have a lovely base

01:18:58Of a crunchy foite

01:18:59With almonds

01:18:59And blonde chocolate

01:19:00Ooh

01:19:00I like the layers

01:19:03We then have

01:19:04A beautiful blonde chocolate sponge

01:19:06A layer of milk chocolate custard

01:19:07A salted caramel

01:19:08The layers of Ravenclaw

01:19:10We finally have

01:19:11A beautiful whipped ganache

01:19:13Of milk chocolate

01:19:14No poker face here

01:19:23The mousse is so light

01:19:27You have the blonde chocolate cake

01:19:29And the foillotine

01:19:30The sable

01:19:30But as you're eating it

01:19:32The salted caramel

01:19:33Really is the sauce in your mouth

01:19:36It's almost like a sundae

01:19:38On the taste side

01:19:39You guys have absolutely

01:19:41Nailed it with this

01:19:42Thank you

01:19:44The team

01:19:52Through to the next challenge

01:19:55Is

01:19:57Andy and Stefan

01:20:00Congrats

01:20:02It feels incredible

01:20:04To be safe

01:20:05And actually progressing

01:20:06Into the next round

01:20:07Caitlin and Jalisa

01:20:08Unfortunately

01:20:09That puts you at risk

01:20:11Of leaving the competition

01:20:14For good

01:20:14This is really nerve wracking

01:20:16I know what we're both capable of

01:20:18And that was not

01:20:19Our best foot forward

01:20:20Let's just pray

01:20:21That we make it through

01:20:22Thank you for a wonderful

01:20:29First challenge

01:20:30All about the houses

01:20:31Of Hogwarts

01:20:32Jenny and Alex

01:20:33Angel and Rui

01:20:34Juju and KG

01:20:35And Andy and Stefan

01:20:37You won your

01:20:38Hogwarts house jewels

01:20:40And that means

01:20:41That you'll all move on

01:20:43To the next

01:20:43Harry Potter location

01:20:44Location

01:20:45Well done

01:20:45So that leaves

01:20:51Heather and Kate

01:20:52Molly and Priya

01:20:54Marge and Sarah

01:20:56Caitlin and Jalisa

01:20:58Unfortunately

01:20:59This adventure must now end

01:21:02For two talented teams

01:21:04Over to you judges

01:21:05Over to you judges

01:21:05The first team

01:21:07We are saving

01:21:08Is

01:21:11Molly and Priya

01:21:14The second and final team

01:21:22We're saving

01:21:23Is

01:21:24Heather and Kate

01:21:29Oh my god

01:21:31I think the first challenge

01:21:36Was a good learning

01:21:37Experience for us

01:21:38And I think we're just

01:21:39Going to get better

01:21:40And better

01:21:40Marge and Sarah

01:21:43Caitlin, Jalisa

01:21:44We're truly sorry

01:21:46But your time

01:21:47On with the baking

01:21:48Must end here

01:21:49It's just

01:21:50You have full faith

01:21:51In your concept

01:21:52And you work very hard

01:21:53On it

01:21:54And sometimes

01:21:55Things just don't

01:21:56Go the way you want

01:21:57It's really hard

01:21:58To accept that

01:21:58When you know

01:21:59What you're capable of

01:22:00100%

01:22:01There were a lot

01:22:02Of wonderful elements

01:22:03To your piece

01:22:04It really was

01:22:05The Earl Grey cake

01:22:06That didn't quite

01:22:07Meet the level

01:22:09That we thought it should

01:22:10At the end of the day

01:22:11Like I'm really proud

01:22:12Of us

01:22:12And I would not

01:22:13Change who my partner

01:22:14Was for anything

01:22:15I just feel like

01:22:16I let Caitlin down

01:22:17You did not

01:22:18We did not

01:22:20Marge and Sarah

01:22:22I think we both

01:22:23Thought your

01:22:24Matcha tea cake

01:22:25Was phenomenally good

01:22:27But the finishing

01:22:28And the detailing

01:22:29Just wasn't

01:22:31Quite where we needed

01:22:32It to be

01:22:33For this competition

01:22:34I put everything

01:22:36I could

01:22:37Into this piece

01:22:39And I know

01:22:40That I can walk away

01:22:42Knowing that

01:22:43There was nothing else

01:22:44I could have done

01:22:45Even though I didn't

01:22:46Get to stick around

01:22:47As long as I wanted to

01:22:48I think I showed

01:22:50What I'm capable of

01:22:51Showed my personality

01:22:52And that's all I can do

01:22:54Okay good job bakers

01:22:57You've all made it through

01:22:58To the next challenge

01:22:59Congratulations

01:23:01But if you thought this was tough

01:23:07Just wait until you see what's coming

01:23:09Coming up on Wizards of Baking

01:23:14Get your greetings right here

01:23:22In a season full of sugar

01:23:24Why does this work

01:23:26And spice

01:23:27And a little bit of chipotle for smokiness

01:23:29Not exactly everything is nice

01:23:32Anybody have a time turner in their pocket?
