Eric Lanlard visits top chocolatier Paul Young, and at the cookery school he teaches a group of novice cake-makers how it's really done as he rustles up a chocolate tart infused with Caribbean spices.

Eric Lanlard is on a mission to reinvent some old-school British desserts. Sticky toffee pudding gets a modern makeover, and some Olympic rowers try their hand at an unusual beetroot cake.

Recognised as one of the world's best patisserie chefs, Eric Lanlard is devoted to the art of making glamorous desserts. In this episode he makes macaroons and a decadent 'symphony' dessert.

As the nights get longer, Eric gets busy with some winter baking, making a tart with a difference, and a hot, gooey gingerbread soufflé.

With dinner guests expected, Eric makes an explosive coffee and syllabub dessert and a spectacular chocolate creation.

Eric creates some sweet things perfect for an afternoon cuppa, including his grandmother's Gateau Breton, and a light raspberry and basil tart.
