For the remaining junior bakers in finals week, their building skills will be tested in Construction Day.

The bakers’ nerves are tested to the max in the construction of their towering, gravity-defying showstoppers that must be made entirely from biscuit.
It’s the Junior BAKING SHOW semi-final and the perfect time to test the remaining bakers’ skills in some of the more challenging areas of patisserie. The first challenge stretches the junior bakers in their longest and hardest technical yet, so they must hold their nerve to present something worthy of a place in tomorrow’s final.
It’s the final of Junior BAKING SHOW and for the last remaining bakers the stakes couldn’t be higher as they have to prepare multiple bakes for a tea party, testing every aspect of the bakers’ skills. In their first and last ever Signature Challenge, the bakers face a double challenge, juggling both Iced Buns and Inside Out biscuits at the same time. In their final and most important bake of the series, the four finalist bakers have their last chance to impress in the form of the ultimate Showstopper – a cake in the form of a Junior BAKING SHOW winner’s trophy.
