Episode 5: Chocolate Week

Summary

In Chocolate Week, Noel Fielding and Alison Hammond host as the bakers make fiddly mousse cups for the Signature, a white chocolate tart in the Technical and a fondue display for their Showstopper challenge

Review

Jane Rackham

Announcing chocolate week’s first challenge, Alison Hammond reveals that “chocolate mousse cups is my burlesque name”. Astonishingly that doesn’t put the bakers off the task, and someone even gets a handshake. However, they’re all wrong-footed by the technical challenge where they must choose ingredients from the “gingham pantry”. Although a couple are disappointing, the towering chocolate fondue showstoppers are generally spectacular, including one inspired by Vesuvius and another by a grand piano.

Though it’s dangerous to predict who could be in the final, three of the bakers have risen, like perfect loaves, to every challenge. Could one of them be the winner?
