In their initial challenge, the bakers had two hours to create 24 cupcakes, with the option to choose two distinct flavors. For the technical challenge, they were tasked with producing a Coffee and Walnut Battenburg cake using a recipe from Mary Berry, also within a two-hour timeframe. The cake had to feature a flawless sponge that maintained perfect symmetry, distinct flavors, and a polished finish. For the showstopper round, the bakers were required to craft an impressive multi-layer chocolate tiered celebration cake over a span of five hours.
