Junior Bake Off

Eight junior bakers enter the tent for two exciting challenges in the first heat. Sponge-baking and jam-making skills are tested in a tricky Technical, then a Showstopper themed around what the bakers would do if they were prime minister.

It's Biscuit Day, and the first heat of bakers returns to the Bake Off tent to make six wafer unicorn horns before creating a biscuit diorama to show off what their very best Saturday would look like.

It's Bread Day, and the bakers have a lot to prove with two tough challenges; in the Technical they must shape and decorate with a feline twist; in Showstopper, the bakers are asked to create a historical figure in bread form.

The bakers are tasked with producing the perfect finale to any meal; in the Technical, they attempt a traditional Chinese dessert with an amphibious twist; they must launch the humble milkshake out of this world for the Showstopper.

It's Pastry Day, and in the Technical, the bakers use an exciting piece of kitchen kit to create a twist on a classic doughnut; for the Showstopper, the bakers must build a scene into a fruit tart that illustrates their biggest phobias.

The second heat of eight junior bakers take on a fun twist on a traditional cake pop with a very specific facial expression, and create a Showstopper that, when sliced, reveals their hidden talents.
