1
00:00:02,210 --> 00:00:06,210
Last time on Harry Potter:
Wizards of Baking,
2
00:00:06,210 --> 00:00:09,500
teams created
gravity-defying showpieces...
3
00:00:09,500 --> 00:00:11,010
We can do this, we can do this.
4
00:00:11,130 --> 00:00:13,630
...that celebrated the Dark Arts...
5
00:00:13,630 --> 00:00:15,470
It looks really creepy.
6
00:00:15,470 --> 00:00:18,300
...and presented them
in the Forbidden Forest.
7
00:00:18,300 --> 00:00:20,600
- Wow.
- It's so eerie.
8
00:00:21,100 --> 00:00:24,390
Miko and Chris secured
their first win of the competition.
9
00:00:24,390 --> 00:00:27,310
This is truly a celebration
of the Dark Arts.
10
00:00:27,770 --> 00:00:30,400
We finally won something.
11
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:33,740
Lisa and Mitzi's flavors
won over the judges.
12
00:00:33,740 --> 00:00:34,990
I taste your heart.
13
00:00:34,990 --> 00:00:38,820
But their presentation fell... short.
14
00:00:38,830 --> 00:00:39,910
I'm gutted.
15
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:42,120
Lisa, Mitzi,
it's time to say goodbye.
16
00:00:42,540 --> 00:00:43,750
With our heads held high.
17
00:00:43,750 --> 00:00:46,500
This week, it's the semifinals.
18
00:00:46,500 --> 00:00:47,790
And the pressure is on
19
00:00:47,790 --> 00:00:50,090
for our remaining three teams...
20
00:00:50,090 --> 00:00:52,000
Oh my God.
We're not even halfway done.
21
00:00:52,010 --> 00:00:55,550
...to impress a beloved
Harry Potter guest
22
00:00:56,550 --> 00:00:58,890
and earn a spot in the finale...
23
00:00:59,010 --> 00:01:00,260
Any little mistake
will send you home.
24
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:04,180
...while inside one of
the most exclusive
25
00:01:04,180 --> 00:01:06,810
inner sanctums of Hogwarts.
26
00:01:08,690 --> 00:01:09,810
Whoa.
27
00:01:10,190 --> 00:01:11,190
Oh my goodness.
28
00:01:11,820 --> 00:01:13,820
Oh my God.
29
00:01:14,150 --> 00:01:17,200
It's so cool to be here
in Dumbledore's office.
30
00:01:17,570 --> 00:01:19,200
It's so grand.
31
00:01:19,620 --> 00:01:24,660
You definitely get that sense
of... "sacred place."
32
00:01:24,660 --> 00:01:25,790
Just amazing.
33
00:01:26,330 --> 00:01:29,250
Chris, we're in the semifinals.
34
00:01:30,500 --> 00:01:31,630
We're feeling confident
35
00:01:31,630 --> 00:01:33,880
going into the most important
challenge yet.
36
00:01:34,510 --> 00:01:36,380
It's the best of the best
at this point.
37
00:01:49,900 --> 00:01:51,230
Hey, everybody!
Come down, come down!
38
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:52,520
Hello!
39
00:01:54,150 --> 00:01:56,150
Welcome to the semifinals!
40
00:01:59,780 --> 00:02:01,120
When this day is done,
41
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:04,120
only two teams will advance
to the final task
42
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:05,250
of the competition.
43
00:02:05,370 --> 00:02:06,790
- Yes!
- That's amazing.
44
00:02:06,790 --> 00:02:09,330
And one of those surviving teams
45
00:02:09,330 --> 00:02:12,290
will go on to claim
the Wizards of Baking Cup!
46
00:02:13,920 --> 00:02:14,960
And you'll be featured
47
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:16,670
in the new
Harry Potter cookbook.
48
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:18,800
Yes.
49
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:20,760
Well, tonight,
50
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,640
your tour of
the Wizarding World continues
51
00:02:23,640 --> 00:02:26,520
as you present
your next sweet showpiece
52
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,940
in another legendary location,
53
00:02:29,350 --> 00:02:30,690
Dumbledore's office.
54
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:33,900
Professor Dumbledore
will be waiting for you.
55
00:02:33,900 --> 00:02:35,190
"Sherbet lemon."
56
00:02:45,330 --> 00:02:46,620
It's a Pensieve.
57
00:02:46,620 --> 00:02:48,500
Very useful if, like me,
58
00:02:48,500 --> 00:02:50,960
you find your mind
a wee bit stretched.
59
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,920
What was the phrase?
"Come quietly."
60
00:02:53,920 --> 00:02:55,000
Take him!
61
00:02:59,880 --> 00:03:01,930
We've got another
exciting piece of news.
62
00:03:02,970 --> 00:03:07,020
Today, we'll be joined
by another special guest.
63
00:03:07,390 --> 00:03:08,970
- Oh my God!
- I wonder who it is.
64
00:03:08,980 --> 00:03:10,930
This person played a character
65
00:03:10,940 --> 00:03:12,900
who was an accomplished
Quidditch player,
66
00:03:12,900 --> 00:03:15,650
a key member
of Dumbledore's Army,
67
00:03:15,650 --> 00:03:19,280
and, in fact, the character
who gave the group its name.
68
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:21,320
Please welcome...
69
00:03:23,620 --> 00:03:26,160
Ginny Weasley herself,
Bonnie Wright!
70
00:03:29,620 --> 00:03:30,870
- Hello!
- What's up, sis?
71
00:03:33,170 --> 00:03:35,880
Hello, everyone!
It's so lovely to be here.
72
00:03:36,380 --> 00:03:38,420
I'm so excited to see
what you create today.
73
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:40,920
What's it like for you
to be back here at Leavesden?
74
00:03:41,220 --> 00:03:42,680
Oh, it's always so special.
75
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:44,890
All these memories
just flood through.
76
00:03:44,890 --> 00:03:46,050
Fred, you next.
77
00:03:46,470 --> 00:03:47,760
He's not Fred, I am.
78
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:48,850
Good luck.
79
00:03:48,850 --> 00:03:51,270
I'm just always so amazed
at the beautiful attention to detail
80
00:03:51,390 --> 00:03:52,640
that we got to be a part of.
81
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:53,730
Hello.
82
00:03:54,020 --> 00:03:56,400
I feel like you kind of
just step back in time.
83
00:03:57,690 --> 00:03:59,190
Oh, well, it's great to see you here
84
00:03:59,190 --> 00:04:00,440
and being able to join us.
85
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,650
And Bonnie, you've agreed
to join Carla and Joseph
86
00:04:03,660 --> 00:04:05,820
on our judging panel this week.
87
00:04:05,820 --> 00:04:08,160
I have. I'm very ready and excited.
88
00:04:08,740 --> 00:04:09,910
Okay then, teams.
89
00:04:09,910 --> 00:04:11,080
As you know,
90
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,540
Dumbledore's office is filled
91
00:04:13,540 --> 00:04:16,040
with all sorts of magical delights.
92
00:04:16,250 --> 00:04:19,880
Now, your challenge today is
to design some sweet showpieces
93
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:21,800
inspired by one of them.
94
00:04:22,090 --> 00:04:23,220
In this task,
95
00:04:23,220 --> 00:04:26,720
your edible sculpture must be
taller than ever before.
96
00:04:27,260 --> 00:04:30,100
At least four feet high.
97
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:35,520
The judges would like two
tasting elements per showpiece.
98
00:04:35,650 --> 00:04:38,020
And if that wasn't
challenging enough,
99
00:04:38,020 --> 00:04:39,980
here's the hardest rule.
100
00:04:39,980 --> 00:04:41,860
In your enchanting effect today,
101
00:04:41,860 --> 00:04:43,150
you'll pay homage
102
00:04:43,150 --> 00:04:44,900
to one of the most difficult skills
103
00:04:44,900 --> 00:04:46,780
for wizards to master.
104
00:04:46,780 --> 00:04:48,030
Transformation.
105
00:04:48,030 --> 00:04:49,530
- Oh my.
- Wow.
106
00:04:49,530 --> 00:04:50,830
Transformation.
107
00:04:50,830 --> 00:04:52,620
Gosh, well,
how are we going to do that?
108
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,250
We are one bake away
from the finale,
109
00:04:55,250 --> 00:04:57,630
so you've really got to step it up.
110
00:04:59,840 --> 00:05:02,510
Good luck, and let the baking begin!
111
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:04,170
Good luck, guys.
112
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:07,050
All right.
113
00:05:07,340 --> 00:05:08,800
- You ready? Okay.
- Yeah.
114
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:10,800
Let's see what we got
from Dumbledore's office.
115
00:05:10,810 --> 00:05:12,390
"Your inspiration is the portraits."
116
00:05:12,970 --> 00:05:14,930
Miko, this is right up your alley.
117
00:05:14,930 --> 00:05:16,600
Portraits of past headteachers.
118
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:18,810
Past headteachers. I love this one.
119
00:05:18,810 --> 00:05:20,560
You got to make a painting for this.
120
00:05:20,570 --> 00:05:22,480
Oh, definitely a painting
'cause it's a portrait.
121
00:05:23,690 --> 00:05:25,610
- "Your inspiration is Fawkes."
- Yay!
122
00:05:26,110 --> 00:05:27,820
"Dumbledore's kind and brave phoenix
123
00:05:27,820 --> 00:05:29,740
who occasionally bursts into flame
124
00:05:29,740 --> 00:05:31,990
and is reborn from his own ashes."
125
00:05:31,990 --> 00:05:33,830
- I love it so much.
- Yeah!
126
00:05:34,580 --> 00:05:35,620
Oh my goodness.
127
00:05:35,620 --> 00:05:37,460
- A Time-Turner.
- "A Time-Turner."
128
00:05:37,460 --> 00:05:40,080
"A highly complex magical device
129
00:05:40,090 --> 00:05:43,250
that allows the user
to go back in time."
130
00:05:43,250 --> 00:05:46,050
- This is tough, Jordan.
- Yeah, this is a tough one.
131
00:05:47,380 --> 00:05:49,220
I think we need to really,
really bring it.
132
00:05:49,220 --> 00:05:50,390
It's so iconic.
133
00:05:50,390 --> 00:05:52,680
I don't think we can replicate that.
134
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,180
I think in order for us to succeed,
135
00:05:55,180 --> 00:05:56,480
we need to abstract.
136
00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:58,810
Sort of deconstructed Time-Turners.
137
00:05:58,810 --> 00:06:01,310
I would love to do more of
a sculptural chocolate element.
138
00:06:02,190 --> 00:06:04,730
The judges mentioned last challenge
139
00:06:04,730 --> 00:06:07,110
that we were not performing
on our best.
140
00:06:07,110 --> 00:06:08,650
- Yes.
- So we need to make sure
141
00:06:08,660 --> 00:06:11,990
that we bring the detail,
the quality, the perfection.
142
00:06:11,990 --> 00:06:13,950
Definitely this one needs
to be, like, step up.
143
00:06:13,950 --> 00:06:15,250
Yeah.
144
00:06:15,500 --> 00:06:16,660
Miko and Chris.
145
00:06:16,660 --> 00:06:17,830
- Hey, how are you?
- Oh, hello!
146
00:06:17,830 --> 00:06:19,290
Your winning Dark Arts showpiece
147
00:06:19,290 --> 00:06:21,540
from the Forbidden Forest
earned you an advantage.
148
00:06:21,540 --> 00:06:23,000
Oh my God.
149
00:06:23,500 --> 00:06:26,590
"You've earned the power
of the Deluminator."
150
00:06:26,590 --> 00:06:28,380
"The Deluminator is
a magical device that,
151
00:06:28,380 --> 00:06:30,220
when opened,
can absorb and expel light
152
00:06:30,220 --> 00:06:31,720
from any light-emitting source."
153
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:32,850
Interesting.
154
00:06:34,810 --> 00:06:36,100
Juan, what do you think it is?
155
00:06:41,060 --> 00:06:42,150
Can you hear?
156
00:06:42,150 --> 00:06:43,770
- No, I can't hear.
- I can't hear. I wanna know.
157
00:06:48,610 --> 00:06:50,950
The Deluminator, if we hit 'em
at the right time,
158
00:06:50,950 --> 00:06:52,320
this might set them back
a little bit.
159
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,200
Let us know when you want
to use your advantage.
160
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,370
- We will. Thank you so much.
- Thank you. Thank you so much.
161
00:06:56,370 --> 00:06:57,500
What is it?
162
00:06:58,910 --> 00:06:59,910
Let's go.
163
00:07:03,250 --> 00:07:04,710
- Elizabeth and Juan.
- Hi.
164
00:07:04,710 --> 00:07:06,340
Congratulations for getting this far.
165
00:07:06,340 --> 00:07:07,630
I know, right?
166
00:07:07,630 --> 00:07:09,800
Last week was obviously
a bit of a letdown
167
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:11,720
considering you won
the two challenges before that.
168
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:16,180
So this week, we're going to
make sure that we go back to
169
00:07:16,180 --> 00:07:18,270
what was working for us,
170
00:07:18,270 --> 00:07:21,350
which is focusing on
the quality and the details.
171
00:07:21,350 --> 00:07:22,980
So what's your inspiration?
172
00:07:22,980 --> 00:07:24,060
Fawkes.
173
00:07:24,060 --> 00:07:26,360
What better inspiration to have
174
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:27,820
after what happened last challenge?
175
00:07:27,820 --> 00:07:30,150
Yes. Rebirth. This is your moment.
176
00:07:30,150 --> 00:07:32,360
So what we're going to be doing is
177
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:35,450
a giant sculptural piece of Fawkes.
178
00:07:35,450 --> 00:07:37,410
He's going to be there
with his wings up.
179
00:07:37,410 --> 00:07:40,120
Then we're going to have
the whole piece turn around.
180
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:43,210
Fawkes bursting into fire,
181
00:07:43,210 --> 00:07:45,330
because obviously he gets reborn
182
00:07:45,340 --> 00:07:47,800
to reveal a pile of ash.
183
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:49,460
And then a little Baby Fawkes
184
00:07:49,460 --> 00:07:51,010
is going to poke his head out
the ash.
185
00:07:51,010 --> 00:07:52,220
Oh, brilliant!
186
00:07:52,220 --> 00:07:54,220
And what kind of flavors
do we have going on?
187
00:07:54,220 --> 00:07:58,060
I wanted to pay homage
this time to my grandma,
188
00:07:58,060 --> 00:08:00,350
so I'm actually
doing her carrot cake.
189
00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:04,770
She actually puts a little bit
of cayenne pepper into it
190
00:08:04,770 --> 00:08:06,270
just to give a little bit of heat.
191
00:08:06,270 --> 00:08:09,110
My grandma used to
just make delicious food,
192
00:08:09,110 --> 00:08:10,780
but especially her carrot cake.
193
00:08:10,780 --> 00:08:12,740
We were actually neighbors
194
00:08:12,740 --> 00:08:14,490
so we'd actually go
to my grandma's house,
195
00:08:14,490 --> 00:08:17,830
and then we just go there
to eat comfort food that I love.
196
00:08:17,830 --> 00:08:18,950
Yeah.
197
00:08:18,950 --> 00:08:21,870
I am taking inspiration
from the password,
198
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:23,500
"sherbet lemon."
199
00:08:23,500 --> 00:08:25,120
My tasting element is actually
200
00:08:25,130 --> 00:08:27,920
going to go into Fawkes himself.
201
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:29,840
Fawkes is going to have a body,
202
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,210
and that's going to be all out
of lemon cake
203
00:08:32,220 --> 00:08:34,970
with a lemon crémeux.
204
00:08:34,970 --> 00:08:37,340
I'm going to have a layer
of meringue for a crunch layer.
205
00:08:37,350 --> 00:08:40,100
I'm actually really excited
about this
206
00:08:40,100 --> 00:08:42,730
because I love Fawkes.
207
00:08:42,730 --> 00:08:45,140
I just want to make sure
that I do him justice.
208
00:08:45,150 --> 00:08:46,940
How big a Harry Potter fan
are you?
209
00:08:46,940 --> 00:08:49,230
You know, I have the usual.
I have the posters.
210
00:08:49,230 --> 00:08:50,980
I have the cushions.
I have the socks.
211
00:08:50,980 --> 00:08:52,690
I have the sweater. I have the cloak.
212
00:08:52,690 --> 00:08:54,280
I have a Quidditch outfit.
213
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:55,900
Do you have a Quidditch outfit,
Bonnie?
214
00:08:55,910 --> 00:08:57,570
I can't say I do have
a Quidditch outfit.
215
00:08:57,570 --> 00:08:59,700
I'm apparently not a true fan.
That's amazing.
216
00:08:59,700 --> 00:09:01,490
Guys, good luck.
We'll catch up with you later.
217
00:09:01,490 --> 00:09:03,080
- Thank you so much.
- Good luck.
218
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:04,790
- Nice to meet you.
- You too.
219
00:09:04,790 --> 00:09:07,080
I just put in my lemon zest cake.
220
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:08,210
Perfect.
221
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:10,460
Guys, what was your inspiration?
222
00:09:10,460 --> 00:09:12,760
We got a difficult one.
We got Time-Turners.
223
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:14,550
- Oh, the Time-Turner?
- Yeah.
224
00:09:14,550 --> 00:09:16,260
When I think of Time-Turner,
I think about gears,
225
00:09:16,260 --> 00:09:18,050
- movement, and dials.
- Dials.
226
00:09:19,300 --> 00:09:23,640
We are putting together
a sculptural showpiece
227
00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:26,730
that will speak to
the moving of time.
228
00:09:26,730 --> 00:09:29,520
So I'm going to make
a load of dials and cogs.
229
00:09:30,110 --> 00:09:32,070
And I will create three rings
out of chocolate
230
00:09:32,070 --> 00:09:33,940
to look like the rings
of the Time-Turner.
231
00:09:34,570 --> 00:09:37,450
Then we'll move all the way up
into a chocolate showpiece
232
00:09:37,450 --> 00:09:39,490
that houses more gears
and more movement
233
00:09:39,490 --> 00:09:41,240
with a lot of different mediums.
234
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,290
I work with chocolate
really every day.
235
00:09:43,290 --> 00:09:46,000
I've done big chocolate sculptures
that I'm really proud of.
236
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:47,830
But throughout the competition,
237
00:09:47,830 --> 00:09:49,420
I really haven't showcased
chocolate work.
238
00:09:49,420 --> 00:09:51,670
So I'm excited to show the judges
239
00:09:51,670 --> 00:09:53,210
more skill and technique.
240
00:09:53,210 --> 00:09:55,340
I'm always up for the challenge,
so this is fun.
241
00:09:55,340 --> 00:09:58,550
So Jordan, this is the batter
for our ginger entremet.
242
00:09:58,550 --> 00:10:01,220
Our first tasting element
is going to be an entremet
243
00:10:01,220 --> 00:10:03,100
that consists of a ginger cake
244
00:10:03,100 --> 00:10:06,270
with miso caramel
pear compote interior
245
00:10:06,270 --> 00:10:09,980
with a little bit of fiery
stem ginger in it as well.
246
00:10:09,980 --> 00:10:12,190
Last challenge, I felt
that we dropped the ball
247
00:10:12,190 --> 00:10:13,820
a little bit with the flavors.
248
00:10:13,820 --> 00:10:15,730
There's no second chances.
We're in the semifinal.
249
00:10:15,740 --> 00:10:17,740
The competition is really stiff.
250
00:10:17,740 --> 00:10:19,240
The teams are fantastic,
251
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:21,530
and we gotta do what we gotta do.
252
00:10:23,910 --> 00:10:25,240
This is the buttercream.
253
00:10:25,250 --> 00:10:27,040
- Miko, Chris.
- Hi.
254
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,210
So what are you actually baking?
What are we going to see?
255
00:10:29,210 --> 00:10:31,000
So what we got here are the portraits
256
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:32,250
in Dumbledore's office.
257
00:10:32,250 --> 00:10:34,460
Being an artist, that fits
into your category, doesn't it?
258
00:10:34,460 --> 00:10:35,550
Yeah, exactly.
259
00:10:35,670 --> 00:10:36,960
But it's more pressure on my part
260
00:10:36,970 --> 00:10:38,590
because if you're doing a portrait,
261
00:10:38,590 --> 00:10:41,340
it has to be exactly similar
262
00:10:41,340 --> 00:10:43,970
or else it's not a portrait
of that person.
263
00:10:43,970 --> 00:10:47,020
So we are paying homage
to Dumbledore himself,
264
00:10:47,310 --> 00:10:50,350
and also our favorite headmaster
for a brief time,
265
00:10:50,350 --> 00:10:52,770
Professor Snape.
266
00:10:53,230 --> 00:10:55,940
And for us, Snape is our unsung hero.
267
00:10:55,940 --> 00:10:57,610
And for so many people watching,
268
00:10:57,610 --> 00:10:59,030
he is their unsung hero, too.
269
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:00,950
How's this going to work
in transformation?
270
00:11:01,070 --> 00:11:02,910
Are you going to have two
paintings next to each other?
271
00:11:02,910 --> 00:11:05,280
We're going to make a large frame
cast out of chocolate.
272
00:11:05,290 --> 00:11:07,000
It'll spin, so as you look
from one angle,
273
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:08,200
it'll be Professor Dumbledore,
274
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:09,540
and as you look
from the other angle,
275
00:11:09,540 --> 00:11:10,710
it'll be Professor Snape.
276
00:11:10,710 --> 00:11:12,210
Miko needs a canvas to paint on,
277
00:11:12,210 --> 00:11:13,920
so I'll be making chocolate slats.
278
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,550
This is a very large piece.
279
00:11:16,550 --> 00:11:19,380
Each one of the slats that
we have is thirty inches long.
280
00:11:19,380 --> 00:11:21,300
Wow. And have you ever done
anything like this before?
281
00:11:21,430 --> 00:11:22,430
No.
282
00:11:22,430 --> 00:11:24,260
You've saved it to this moment
to try something new.
283
00:11:24,260 --> 00:11:25,890
You have to go big or go home.
284
00:11:25,890 --> 00:11:28,350
- Well, it does smell incredible.
- Thank you.
285
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,980
What I'm baking for
my tasting element is yuzu cake,
286
00:11:30,980 --> 00:11:34,650
with candied yuzu folded in it
and a yuzu curd.
287
00:11:34,650 --> 00:11:35,860
So lots of yuzu things.
288
00:11:35,860 --> 00:11:37,360
Is that, like, on the citrusy end?
289
00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:39,150
What's the flavor profile of that?
290
00:11:39,150 --> 00:11:42,990
Yuzu is similar to lemon.
It's a Japanese lemon.
291
00:11:42,990 --> 00:11:44,160
Gonna be, like, sweet and sour.
292
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:45,280
- That's it? Okay.
- Yeah.
293
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:49,200
So our take on the flavor of,
you know, sherbet lemon.
294
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:52,540
So my tasting element will be
part of the portrait.
295
00:11:52,670 --> 00:11:53,790
And then on the bottom,
296
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:55,130
because we're
in Dumbledore's office,
297
00:11:55,250 --> 00:11:57,210
we're going to have candles,
which are my tasting element.
298
00:11:57,340 --> 00:11:59,170
A play on a peanut butter
and jelly sandwich.
299
00:11:59,960 --> 00:12:04,260
So right now I am making
the molds for the candles.
300
00:12:04,390 --> 00:12:05,800
My tasting element
will go inside of these
301
00:12:05,930 --> 00:12:06,930
once they're cast.
302
00:12:06,930 --> 00:12:08,140
So it's candied peanuts
303
00:12:08,140 --> 00:12:10,180
that are tossed in cinnamon
and cayenne pepper
304
00:12:10,180 --> 00:12:12,180
and a Concord grape gelée.
305
00:12:12,190 --> 00:12:14,310
Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches
are nostalgic for me.
306
00:12:14,310 --> 00:12:16,230
It's a staple of American diet,
isn't it?
307
00:12:16,230 --> 00:12:17,560
Well, it was a staple for my diet
308
00:12:17,570 --> 00:12:19,730
because that's all I could afford
when I first became a cook.
309
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,440
You know, after years
of working long days...
310
00:12:22,450 --> 00:12:23,700
The grind is real.
311
00:12:23,700 --> 00:12:25,200
Now to be on the other side of that
312
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:26,870
as an executive pastry chef
313
00:12:26,870 --> 00:12:28,490
and to be here in the semifinals,
314
00:12:28,490 --> 00:12:30,330
potentially winning
would be absolutely amazing.
315
00:12:30,330 --> 00:12:32,500
It would validate that I made
the right decision
316
00:12:32,500 --> 00:12:33,710
about being a chef.
317
00:12:33,710 --> 00:12:35,330
Kind of like
a full circle moment.
318
00:12:35,330 --> 00:12:37,840
You guys are one step away
from the finale.
319
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:39,500
Is there more pressure
on yourselves,
320
00:12:39,630 --> 00:12:40,920
especially winning last week?
321
00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:42,880
Yeah, you're only down
to three teams who are amazing
322
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,130
and any little mistake
will send you home.
323
00:12:45,140 --> 00:12:46,970
So you have to hope
someone else makes one.
324
00:12:48,010 --> 00:12:49,470
Very Slytherin of me.
325
00:12:52,100 --> 00:12:53,600
The time's going too quickly.
326
00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:57,440
Goodness.
327
00:12:57,900 --> 00:12:59,820
What I'm doing now with the frame,
328
00:12:59,820 --> 00:13:02,030
I'm actually making a mold
out of it using putty.
329
00:13:02,030 --> 00:13:06,450
And this frame is a very
critical part of our showpiece.
330
00:13:06,450 --> 00:13:08,280
This mold is going to be ready
331
00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:10,330
for us to actually pour
chocolate into.
332
00:13:10,330 --> 00:13:12,370
I'm already exhausted from kneading.
333
00:13:12,500 --> 00:13:14,500
Knead, Miko. Knead like the wind.
334
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:17,460
At least you're starting
with your sculpting.
335
00:13:17,580 --> 00:13:18,630
Yeah.
336
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:23,460
I'm making Fawkes's face out of
modeling chocolate and fondant.
337
00:13:23,470 --> 00:13:25,720
This is a really difficult piece
338
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:28,010
because Fawkes is so detailed.
339
00:13:28,010 --> 00:13:30,010
Being here, it just means
so much to me
340
00:13:30,010 --> 00:13:32,680
because I've done a lot of
other competitions before,
341
00:13:32,680 --> 00:13:36,060
but Harry Potter has always had
a special place in my heart,
342
00:13:36,060 --> 00:13:39,230
so I've never wanted to win
a competition
343
00:13:39,230 --> 00:13:41,440
as badly as I have this one.
344
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:43,190
He's so pretty.
345
00:13:43,860 --> 00:13:44,940
Bakers!
346
00:13:44,940 --> 00:13:48,320
- Five hours remaining.
- Oh, great.
347
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:51,700
I'm making the slats
for Miko's painting.
348
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:55,000
I just gotta get Miko
the pieces that he needs.
349
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:56,540
My concern is that if we break any,
350
00:13:56,540 --> 00:13:58,170
we won't have a showpiece.
351
00:13:58,290 --> 00:14:00,960
These need to be super straight
and the exact dimensions.
352
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:02,380
So if I don't nail this,
353
00:14:02,380 --> 00:14:04,340
Lord knows what Miko's gonna
end up painting.
354
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:06,720
Are you okay?
355
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:07,880
Some of the slats are breaking.
356
00:14:08,010 --> 00:14:09,510
Oh my God. Chris.
357
00:14:10,140 --> 00:14:12,220
I have zero time
to remake any of them.
358
00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:15,020
We're missing a slat
and we don't have a full picture.
359
00:14:15,020 --> 00:14:17,100
I'm not having fun right now.
360
00:14:17,100 --> 00:14:19,690
I don't think anything
would be more terrifying
361
00:14:19,690 --> 00:14:22,230
and embarrassing
to be in the semifinals
362
00:14:22,230 --> 00:14:24,360
and not go to the judging
with a showpiece.
363
00:14:25,150 --> 00:14:26,360
I think we may have bit off
364
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:27,900
more than we could chew with this.
365
00:14:32,950 --> 00:14:35,870
What I would do, Miko,
to fix the slats pieces,
366
00:14:35,870 --> 00:14:37,200
glue them together.
367
00:14:37,210 --> 00:14:39,580
Like we've timed it exactly
to have enough time
368
00:14:39,580 --> 00:14:41,250
to fix the slats.
369
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:43,670
'Cause I have to,
while Miko's painting,
370
00:14:43,670 --> 00:14:45,050
I have to do my tasting element
371
00:14:45,050 --> 00:14:46,670
and finish the entire showpiece.
372
00:14:46,670 --> 00:14:48,800
So I have zero time
to come back to this.
373
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:50,010
So, once I'm done, I'm done.
374
00:14:50,010 --> 00:14:51,800
And if we're missing a slat,
we're missing a slat.
375
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:53,220
And we don't have a full picture.
376
00:14:53,220 --> 00:14:55,310
You know? Every second counts.
377
00:14:56,270 --> 00:14:58,690
I'm working on my pineapple compote.
378
00:14:59,140 --> 00:15:01,060
That's gonna be one of my layers
379
00:15:01,060 --> 00:15:04,190
for my tasting element,
the carrot cake.
380
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:07,320
So it has a really tangy punch
into it.
381
00:15:07,860 --> 00:15:09,900
I'm working on the lemon crémeux
382
00:15:09,900 --> 00:15:11,240
for my sherbet lemon cake.
383
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:12,530
Oh yeah.
384
00:15:12,530 --> 00:15:13,780
- Hey, Juan.
- Yes?
385
00:15:13,780 --> 00:15:14,830
Can you throw me a lemon?
386
00:15:14,950 --> 00:15:16,290
- You ready?
- Yeah, yeah.
387
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:21,960
You've got a little muscle
behind that.
388
00:15:22,710 --> 00:15:26,210
Apparently, everyone's doing
sherbet lemon tastings.
389
00:15:26,210 --> 00:15:28,960
Well, we're not really doing
a sherbet lemon taste,
390
00:15:28,970 --> 00:15:30,170
so it's an illusion.
391
00:15:30,180 --> 00:15:31,300
There you go.
392
00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:32,800
Zoe and Jordan.
393
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:33,930
- Oh, hello.
- Hello, hello.
394
00:15:34,050 --> 00:15:36,010
So, talk us about your bake.
What are you doing?
395
00:15:36,010 --> 00:15:37,390
Our inspiration is Time-Turners.
396
00:15:37,390 --> 00:15:39,140
We're really turning our showpiece
397
00:15:39,140 --> 00:15:41,520
into something that embodies time.
398
00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:45,110
We are creating
hyper-realistic lemons.
399
00:15:45,110 --> 00:15:47,440
The flavor profile is
an interpretation
400
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:50,400
of a Cherry Bakewell tart,
a classic English dessert.
401
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:52,820
Sour cherry and sweet almond.
402
00:15:52,820 --> 00:15:55,280
This is the frangipane
that Zoe made earlier.
403
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:56,780
The other half is going to be
404
00:15:56,790 --> 00:15:58,450
a cherry confit
with some fresh cherries in it.
405
00:15:58,450 --> 00:16:01,460
So this is the morello cherry mousse.
406
00:16:01,460 --> 00:16:04,630
And then I'm going to put
the insert of the frangipane
407
00:16:04,630 --> 00:16:06,790
and confit cherries in the center.
408
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:09,460
These are the centers
of the sherbet lemons
409
00:16:09,460 --> 00:16:11,170
that aren't actually sherbet lemons.
410
00:16:11,170 --> 00:16:12,510
You obviously know lots about this.
411
00:16:12,510 --> 00:16:13,970
Were you classically trained?
412
00:16:13,970 --> 00:16:15,970
I got an academic scholarship,
413
00:16:15,970 --> 00:16:18,680
as well as attending Johnson and Wales,
414
00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:20,220
you know, a pastry school.
415
00:16:20,230 --> 00:16:22,390
I've had a completely
different experience to Jordan.
416
00:16:22,390 --> 00:16:23,520
I am self-taught.
417
00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:25,810
I've never had any professional
training in the kitchen.
418
00:16:25,810 --> 00:16:27,770
We're now pushing
probably forty years
419
00:16:27,770 --> 00:16:30,900
of me being in the kitchen
and baking, so... You learn.
420
00:16:30,900 --> 00:16:33,360
I learned from my mother
and my grandmothers
421
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:35,320
and my aunties and baking at home.
422
00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,910
So I'm appreciative
for them, for sure.
423
00:16:37,910 --> 00:16:41,250
Once I had children,
then I started experimenting
424
00:16:41,370 --> 00:16:44,040
with novelty cakes
and cake sculptures
425
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:45,710
and things like that for them, really.
426
00:16:45,710 --> 00:16:47,130
And it sort of snowballed from that.
427
00:16:47,130 --> 00:16:49,800
You've taken on a big,
big challenge here.
428
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:51,300
Thank you. Thank you so much.
429
00:16:51,300 --> 00:16:52,420
Thank you.
430
00:16:54,550 --> 00:16:55,800
How are you feeling?
431
00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:56,970
Not too bad actually.
432
00:16:56,970 --> 00:17:00,810
I'm going to be working on the wings
because those are big.
433
00:17:01,350 --> 00:17:04,560
This piece definitely has
its risks and challenges.
434
00:17:05,060 --> 00:17:07,690
One of those is going to be
the wings.
435
00:17:07,690 --> 00:17:09,480
They're going to be so big
436
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:10,980
and they're going
to be outstretched.
437
00:17:11,110 --> 00:17:12,690
They're literally defying gravity,
438
00:17:12,690 --> 00:17:14,610
and I am concerned
about the weight
439
00:17:14,610 --> 00:17:17,200
and making sure that
all my fondant stays on.
440
00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:19,660
So this is my support for my wings,
441
00:17:19,660 --> 00:17:24,290
and then I'm going to put on
all my fondant feathers.
442
00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:29,090
Okay teams, two hours gone
and four hours left.
443
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:31,210
Where did that two hours go?
444
00:17:31,210 --> 00:17:32,800
I know, that's what
I was thinking. I was...
445
00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:35,720
Four hours and, oh my God.
We're not even halfway done.
446
00:17:37,470 --> 00:17:40,600
Jordan, I'm just finishing up
painting all these accents
447
00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:42,640
and I've got to paint the big cog.
448
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:43,770
How are you getting on?
449
00:17:43,770 --> 00:17:45,350
I gotta finish this chocolate piece.
450
00:17:45,350 --> 00:17:49,610
I'm just unmolding
the inspired Time-Turner rings.
451
00:17:49,610 --> 00:17:51,770
There's a lot of chocolate
in this showpiece.
452
00:17:51,780 --> 00:17:55,030
We want to do three rings
intertwined with one another.
453
00:17:55,030 --> 00:17:56,150
It's a risk in itself.
454
00:17:56,150 --> 00:17:59,070
I'm unmolding the rings,
moving too fast, of course.
455
00:17:59,820 --> 00:18:01,330
And I break the middle ring.
456
00:18:01,330 --> 00:18:02,580
It's the semifinal.
457
00:18:02,580 --> 00:18:03,830
I can't afford to have this crack.
458
00:18:03,830 --> 00:18:06,790
I know that I can repair it,
but I need to do that now.
459
00:18:06,790 --> 00:18:09,290
My wife, I know she's rooting for me.
460
00:18:09,290 --> 00:18:10,580
I'm recently married.
461
00:18:10,590 --> 00:18:13,550
My wife's name is Tori.
I mean, she's amazing.
462
00:18:13,550 --> 00:18:15,300
She's the better half, definitely.
463
00:18:15,300 --> 00:18:18,180
And I want to win this competition
and make her proud.
464
00:18:18,180 --> 00:18:20,180
That looks fantastic, Jordan.
How's it coming?
465
00:18:20,180 --> 00:18:21,800
Still has some a little bit
of detail to do.
466
00:18:21,810 --> 00:18:25,680
I'm going to add some bolts,
make it very industrial.
467
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:27,600
This crack, it never happened.
468
00:18:31,770 --> 00:18:35,570
Okay. For our showpiece,
I have two portraits.
469
00:18:35,570 --> 00:18:38,200
But I'm actually starting
with Snape's portrait.
470
00:18:38,910 --> 00:18:41,450
As a kid,
painting was my first love.
471
00:18:41,450 --> 00:18:42,620
I loved to draw.
472
00:18:42,620 --> 00:18:44,490
I started drawing
at the age of four.
473
00:18:44,490 --> 00:18:47,370
I also have a bachelor's degree
in fine arts
474
00:18:47,370 --> 00:18:48,660
and I majored in painting.
475
00:18:48,670 --> 00:18:50,870
So this challenge
is right up my alley.
476
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:53,540
I actually won
prestigious competitions
477
00:18:53,550 --> 00:18:56,050
for my sculptures
and my paintings.
478
00:18:56,050 --> 00:18:58,170
And I taught art and art history.
479
00:18:58,170 --> 00:18:59,760
But then I was like,
480
00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:01,970
let me just pursue my passion
in baking.
481
00:19:01,970 --> 00:19:06,430
And now I get to incorporate
my painting skills onto my cakes.
482
00:19:06,430 --> 00:19:07,810
If we were to go home
this challenge,
483
00:19:07,810 --> 00:19:09,560
I would be so disappointed
at myself.
484
00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:11,150
I want to reach the finale.
485
00:19:11,150 --> 00:19:13,110
And I want to reach the finale
with you.
486
00:19:13,110 --> 00:19:14,980
Yeah, same.
I can't imagine going home.
487
00:19:14,980 --> 00:19:16,610
- Miko.
- Yes, Chris?
488
00:19:16,610 --> 00:19:18,240
I don't know how
you have managed to pull that
489
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,780
out of thin air
in the past thirty minutes.
490
00:19:20,780 --> 00:19:22,200
When you're in a time crunch,
491
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,450
you can do a lot of
impossible things.
492
00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:29,620
I'm gonna go ahead and quickly
knock out Baby Fawkes.
493
00:19:29,620 --> 00:19:32,210
So the idea of our
transformation element is that,
494
00:19:32,210 --> 00:19:35,460
in the front we have Fawkes
as an adult,
495
00:19:35,460 --> 00:19:37,630
but then when it turns into fire,
496
00:19:37,630 --> 00:19:40,260
and then it's gonna
reveal Baby Fawkes.
497
00:19:40,260 --> 00:19:42,970
Right now, I am doing the fire.
498
00:19:42,970 --> 00:19:46,010
We're using
the cocoa butter sheets
499
00:19:46,010 --> 00:19:47,430
with a lot of gold.
500
00:19:48,100 --> 00:19:49,480
And then I'm covering them
with chocolate.
501
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:51,190
The reason why I'm folding them
this way
502
00:19:51,190 --> 00:19:53,190
is so when I take them
out of the acetate,
503
00:19:53,190 --> 00:19:55,230
I am already gonna
have that shape.
504
00:19:55,980 --> 00:19:59,070
And I can just pull them around
the whole piece.
505
00:19:59,940 --> 00:20:01,110
Halfway through.
506
00:20:01,110 --> 00:20:04,700
Three hours gone,
three hours to go.
507
00:20:04,700 --> 00:20:06,200
I'm freaking out
on the inside, I can tell you.
508
00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:07,540
You can do it.
509
00:20:07,910 --> 00:20:10,660
I feel like I'm coming in
on this very high stakes moment.
510
00:20:13,540 --> 00:20:15,500
So the wings are going really,
really good.
511
00:20:15,500 --> 00:20:17,540
I've got lots and lots of layers on.
512
00:20:17,550 --> 00:20:19,920
I'm almost done
with the first wing actually.
513
00:20:30,350 --> 00:20:31,430
Cool.
514
00:20:31,430 --> 00:20:33,100
This is just soul-crushing
at this point.
515
00:20:34,310 --> 00:20:35,310
What's happening?
516
00:20:35,310 --> 00:20:37,360
It came off of the acrylic.
517
00:20:38,190 --> 00:20:39,360
- Oh, no.
- Yep.
518
00:20:39,360 --> 00:20:41,700
My time is literally ticking down.
519
00:20:42,610 --> 00:20:46,620
At this point, I just hope
we can still finish this thing.
520
00:20:46,620 --> 00:20:48,120
We made it this far.
521
00:20:48,120 --> 00:20:50,290
I just don't want to go home yet.
522
00:20:54,420 --> 00:20:55,500
What do you need?
523
00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:58,420
I need you to cut out feathers
for me.
524
00:20:58,420 --> 00:20:59,670
Cut out feathers? Okay.
525
00:21:00,340 --> 00:21:02,510
These wings took up
so much more time
526
00:21:02,510 --> 00:21:03,630
than I anticipated
527
00:21:03,630 --> 00:21:05,300
because I didn't plan
on them falling off.
528
00:21:05,300 --> 00:21:06,840
So in order to fix it,
529
00:21:06,850 --> 00:21:10,260
I basically have to remake
these entire parts of the wing,
530
00:21:10,270 --> 00:21:11,850
which means rolling out
more fondant,
531
00:21:11,850 --> 00:21:13,560
cutting out more wings.
532
00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:15,190
They just have to be done quickly.
533
00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:16,560
Got it.
534
00:21:19,230 --> 00:21:21,570
Miko, I think it's a good time
to use the advantage.
535
00:21:21,570 --> 00:21:23,690
Zoe's doing some painting
on the cake,
536
00:21:23,700 --> 00:21:25,610
and I know that Elizabeth
and Juan are doing some
537
00:21:25,610 --> 00:21:27,660
very intricate feathers
for their phoenix.
538
00:21:27,660 --> 00:21:29,450
- Let's do it now.
- All right, let's go. Perfect.
539
00:21:31,490 --> 00:21:32,540
Okay.
540
00:21:32,540 --> 00:21:35,000
May we have your attention please?
541
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:39,590
Miko and Chris have decided
to use their advantage,
542
00:21:39,590 --> 00:21:40,670
the power...
543
00:21:43,050 --> 00:21:44,800
of the Deluminator.
544
00:21:45,220 --> 00:21:47,680
Oh, no. You guys!
545
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:50,510
So in this kitchen, that means
546
00:21:51,010 --> 00:21:54,100
that the lights
above your two stations
547
00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:57,350
will go dark for ten minutes.
548
00:21:58,020 --> 00:21:59,900
No light for ten minutes?
549
00:22:00,230 --> 00:22:01,270
Sorry, guys.
550
00:22:01,270 --> 00:22:03,530
I'm going to freeze
Juan's arm off or something
551
00:22:03,530 --> 00:22:04,860
using this in the dark.
552
00:22:04,860 --> 00:22:06,950
I've got to do some painting now.
553
00:22:06,950 --> 00:22:08,860
All right, get ready,
554
00:22:08,870 --> 00:22:11,990
because your ten minutes
in the dark starts now.
555
00:22:14,330 --> 00:22:16,710
- Perfect. It worked.
- Thank you.
556
00:22:16,710 --> 00:22:18,710
- Wow. Okay.
- That's really dark.
557
00:22:18,710 --> 00:22:20,830
I'm piping chocolate onto the wings
558
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:23,050
because I'm trying
to stick these feathers on.
559
00:22:23,050 --> 00:22:25,880
Now I can't see if I'm piping
chocolate on my wing
560
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:27,170
or Juan's head.
561
00:22:27,180 --> 00:22:29,590
Miko's got lovely bright light
over there.
562
00:22:29,590 --> 00:22:31,180
Meanwhile, I'm squinting.
563
00:22:31,180 --> 00:22:33,220
I can only imagine how much
this is setting them back.
564
00:22:34,180 --> 00:22:35,600
Well, I hope so.
565
00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:37,480
Oh, that's so evil of me.
566
00:22:38,270 --> 00:22:39,520
So right now I'm starting
to assemble
567
00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:40,730
my candles tasting element.
568
00:22:40,730 --> 00:22:42,730
So I have some of
the candied nuts in there.
569
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:45,610
And now I'm going to put some
peanut butter mousse in there.
570
00:22:45,610 --> 00:22:49,360
And then I'll finish it with
the grape Concord gelée.
571
00:22:49,360 --> 00:22:51,240
Zoe, are you having fun in the dark?
572
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:54,740
Yeah, I'm literally starting to
do some painting and drawing.
573
00:22:54,740 --> 00:22:56,410
So this is beautiful timing.
574
00:22:57,370 --> 00:22:59,750
We were running like
a well-oiled machine.
575
00:22:59,750 --> 00:23:01,130
But now, we're just moving slowly.
576
00:23:01,130 --> 00:23:02,580
And every minute counts.
577
00:23:02,590 --> 00:23:06,800
We can't have anything prevent us
from getting into the finale.
578
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:08,420
We want to get to the end.
579
00:23:08,430 --> 00:23:10,380
It's just... It's not ideal.
580
00:23:10,390 --> 00:23:12,720
Can you say "thank you" to Miko
and Chris right now?
581
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:13,890
Thanks, Miko and Chris.
582
00:23:13,890 --> 00:23:15,560
Who's saying something?
I can't see them.
583
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:16,730
Cheers!
584
00:23:18,770 --> 00:23:19,940
When the lights go on,
585
00:23:19,940 --> 00:23:22,020
it's going to have to be
a casualty check, right?
586
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:23,940
- Five.
- Four.
587
00:23:23,940 --> 00:23:25,650
- Three.
- Two.
588
00:23:25,650 --> 00:23:27,990
- One. Lumos!
- Lumos!
589
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:30,820
- Yay! Thank goodness, wow.
- Yay!
590
00:23:30,820 --> 00:23:31,950
Let there be light.
591
00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:35,910
Okay teams, four hours gone
and two hours left.
592
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:39,790
Oh my, that is not very long at all.
593
00:23:41,120 --> 00:23:44,500
I am making my tasting element.
594
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:47,420
So we're gonna have
a layer of carrot cake,
595
00:23:47,420 --> 00:23:50,970
then we have a layer of
the spicy pecan gianduja,
596
00:23:50,970 --> 00:23:53,970
the mascarpone cream, the pineapple.
597
00:23:55,220 --> 00:23:56,680
It's not spicy enough, no.
598
00:23:58,310 --> 00:23:59,520
I'm not getting any spicy.
599
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:01,520
I'm gonna actually scrape it off,
600
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:04,190
and I'm gonna add more spicy
in the pineapple.
601
00:24:04,190 --> 00:24:05,650
We've unmolded our chocolate frame,
602
00:24:05,650 --> 00:24:07,860
so we're about to put it
on the wooden frame now.
603
00:24:09,610 --> 00:24:10,900
This is weird.
604
00:24:10,900 --> 00:24:12,110
There's gaps in the frame.
605
00:24:12,820 --> 00:24:13,950
We discovered that the frame
606
00:24:13,950 --> 00:24:15,450
is not the same size
as the wood board,
607
00:24:15,450 --> 00:24:18,200
so now we're having to
makeshift something to cover it up.
608
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:20,540
We're putting fondant on this part
609
00:24:20,540 --> 00:24:22,750
so it could look like still a frame.
610
00:24:23,170 --> 00:24:25,170
This is taking time from us.
611
00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:31,380
That looks fantastic, Jordan.
612
00:24:31,380 --> 00:24:32,800
I still have some detail to do.
613
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:35,090
I dipped our lemons into cocoa
butter and white chocolate,
614
00:24:35,100 --> 00:24:37,180
which created a hard outer layer.
615
00:24:37,470 --> 00:24:39,220
Now I'm spraying on a glaze
616
00:24:39,220 --> 00:24:41,180
that will give it
that lemon peel texture.
617
00:24:41,810 --> 00:24:42,980
And the sherbet lemons themselves
618
00:24:42,980 --> 00:24:44,060
will be transformative
619
00:24:44,060 --> 00:24:45,520
because they're going
to look like lemons
620
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:46,730
but not taste like lemons.
621
00:24:46,900 --> 00:24:49,070
And then our transformation element.
622
00:24:49,070 --> 00:24:52,780
The lemons will be hidden
inside an infinity mirror.
623
00:24:52,780 --> 00:24:55,530
When the judges first see the piece,
624
00:24:55,530 --> 00:24:57,910
they will not be able
to see the lemons.
625
00:24:57,910 --> 00:25:01,250
But when they look inside,
the lemons will appear.
626
00:25:01,250 --> 00:25:03,580
I hope it's enough
to get us into the final.
627
00:25:03,580 --> 00:25:06,460
All we can do is do our best,
and that is what we're doing.
628
00:25:07,540 --> 00:25:09,340
- Yeah, but it's the semifinal.
- It's the semifinal.
629
00:25:09,340 --> 00:25:10,960
- Big. You can feel it.
- The pressure is there,
630
00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:12,800
and they are all paying
so much attention
631
00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:14,090
to everything they're doing
632
00:25:14,090 --> 00:25:16,680
because it's going to be
fine margins from now on.
633
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:20,140
Juan, can you work on making
the ashes, pretty please?
634
00:25:20,140 --> 00:25:21,270
Of course.
635
00:25:21,270 --> 00:25:23,480
So to make the pile of ashes
that we're going to put
636
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:24,560
on the bottom of our piece,
637
00:25:24,690 --> 00:25:26,690
I'm doing a technique
called flocking.
638
00:25:26,690 --> 00:25:29,150
You paint wafer paper
with blacks and grays
639
00:25:29,150 --> 00:25:30,610
and then you dehydrate it.
640
00:25:30,610 --> 00:25:32,820
What that does is
the wafer paper dries out,
641
00:25:32,820 --> 00:25:36,740
so then I can grind them to
make really nice and dry ashes.
642
00:25:36,740 --> 00:25:38,570
I need to start layering the cakes
643
00:25:38,580 --> 00:25:39,950
for my tasting element,
644
00:25:39,950 --> 00:25:42,120
which is going to be Fawkes's body,
645
00:25:42,120 --> 00:25:44,330
and that's gonna be all out of cake.
646
00:25:44,330 --> 00:25:47,080
I've got a layer of lemon crémeux,
647
00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:49,960
and then we're also going
to add a meringue.
648
00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:52,590
Then I have to carve
the shape of the body.
649
00:25:52,710 --> 00:25:55,930
I've got the first bit on,
his little belly.
650
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:02,850
Part of Elizabeth and Juan's
cake has just fallen.
651
00:26:02,850 --> 00:26:04,220
Now I have to redo those.
652
00:26:04,230 --> 00:26:06,560
Can we get a dustpan and brush, please?
653
00:26:07,900 --> 00:26:09,860
I think it's going to
set them back a little bit.
654
00:26:10,190 --> 00:26:11,780
Pivot, pivot, pivot, pivot.
655
00:26:18,700 --> 00:26:21,200
Yeah, the cake somehow just fell off.
656
00:26:21,410 --> 00:26:22,950
It just abandoned ship
657
00:26:22,950 --> 00:26:25,830
and just decided to make
my life even more stressful.
658
00:26:25,830 --> 00:26:29,790
So what we're going to do is
I have a little bit extra
659
00:26:29,790 --> 00:26:32,130
and we're just going to
go ahead and put that on
660
00:26:32,130 --> 00:26:34,920
and then just give it
a fondant neck
661
00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:36,800
because I don't need cake
all the way up to the neck.
662
00:26:37,010 --> 00:26:38,300
This is definitely pushing me
663
00:26:38,300 --> 00:26:39,800
like another fifteen minutes back.
664
00:26:40,550 --> 00:26:42,760
One hour to go, teams, one hour.
665
00:26:43,310 --> 00:26:44,930
Coming through, right behind,
right behind, right behind.
666
00:26:44,930 --> 00:26:46,850
So what I'm doing right now is
667
00:26:46,850 --> 00:26:49,270
I'm attaching two
chocolate slats together.
668
00:26:49,270 --> 00:26:52,110
So one is actually
of Dumbledore's portrait
669
00:26:52,110 --> 00:26:55,150
and the other one is
of Snape's portrait.
670
00:26:55,150 --> 00:26:59,410
This is the most nervous I have
ever been in this competition
671
00:26:59,410 --> 00:27:01,620
because everything
has to be precise or else
672
00:27:01,620 --> 00:27:03,700
the transformative element
of our showpiece
673
00:27:03,700 --> 00:27:05,660
where you will see Dumbledore
on one side
674
00:27:05,660 --> 00:27:07,870
and Snape on the other
is not going to work.
675
00:27:08,250 --> 00:27:10,580
I'm hoping that the slats
are going to fit.
676
00:27:12,170 --> 00:27:15,460
I'm using a edible paint.
677
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:18,300
It's kind of like acrylic paint,
678
00:27:18,300 --> 00:27:19,680
but it's food coloring.
679
00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:21,140
Breathe, Jordan.
680
00:27:22,550 --> 00:27:24,720
I'm just finishing up painting
all these accents.
681
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:25,810
Okay.
682
00:27:27,770 --> 00:27:28,850
How are you getting on?
683
00:27:28,850 --> 00:27:31,850
I'm going to try to make a dome
for the top of that Time-Turner
684
00:27:31,860 --> 00:27:34,150
to make it look like there's glass.
685
00:27:34,360 --> 00:27:37,860
The plan is to pour some sugar,
glucose, and water in the center.
686
00:27:37,860 --> 00:27:40,240
And with the ring,
once you push down,
687
00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:42,870
the plastic wrap creates air,
so it creates a bubble.
688
00:27:42,870 --> 00:27:45,330
That's going to sit on top of
the entremet. That's the plan.
689
00:27:51,710 --> 00:27:53,130
- It broke?
- Yeah.
690
00:27:53,130 --> 00:27:54,880
- That is devastating.
- Okay.
691
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:56,960
He doesn't have time to remake it,
692
00:27:56,960 --> 00:27:59,170
but the entremet looks beautiful,
693
00:27:59,170 --> 00:28:01,760
so we're hoping it'll be okay
without it.
694
00:28:02,890 --> 00:28:05,510
Just under ten minutes to go, everybody.
695
00:28:06,060 --> 00:28:07,100
Oh my God.
696
00:28:07,390 --> 00:28:10,060
There's not much time left.
I just need to cover this body,
697
00:28:10,190 --> 00:28:12,060
so I'm rushing to get that done.
698
00:28:12,230 --> 00:28:13,600
Come on, guys.
699
00:28:13,610 --> 00:28:15,480
I'm very much panicking.
700
00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:18,030
My hand is moving
as fast as it can go
701
00:28:18,030 --> 00:28:20,900
because I need to texture this body
702
00:28:20,900 --> 00:28:22,450
and make it look fluffy.
703
00:28:22,450 --> 00:28:24,240
This is the most important part
of the piece,
704
00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:27,910
and I'm nearly done,
but not "done" done.
705
00:28:28,790 --> 00:28:30,620
Ninety seconds.
706
00:28:30,910 --> 00:28:32,460
It's starting to come together.
707
00:28:32,460 --> 00:28:34,000
Tons more gears,
they're all over there.
708
00:28:34,210 --> 00:28:36,170
I'm trying to paint the white parts.
709
00:28:36,170 --> 00:28:37,420
I don't want to leave it white.
710
00:28:37,550 --> 00:28:39,210
Thirty seconds.
711
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:42,970
- Five.
- Four.
712
00:28:42,970 --> 00:28:44,800
- Three.
- Two.
713
00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:45,970
One.
714
00:28:45,970 --> 00:28:49,600
Arresto Momentum. Your time is up.
715
00:28:51,270 --> 00:28:52,980
Time to assemble your pieces.
716
00:28:52,980 --> 00:28:55,730
Please take all the parts
717
00:28:55,730 --> 00:28:58,270
and move over to Dumbledore's office.
718
00:28:58,270 --> 00:28:59,480
Good luck, everybody.
719
00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:12,000
Honestly, I'm proud of
what we put together.
720
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:13,370
We worked really hard.
721
00:29:14,250 --> 00:29:16,210
But we're up against
stiff competition.
722
00:29:16,790 --> 00:29:18,550
Is it enough to get us through?
723
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:20,300
I don't know.
724
00:29:21,970 --> 00:29:24,840
Welcome back to Dumbledore's office.
725
00:29:25,890 --> 00:29:29,640
This is where we'll determine
726
00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:33,770
which two teams
will head into the finale.
727
00:29:34,020 --> 00:29:37,810
So Zoe, Jordan,
so what did you come up with?
728
00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:41,110
We decided to abstract
729
00:29:41,230 --> 00:29:44,190
the concept of time
and the Time-Turner.
730
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:47,490
The dials and cogs are made
of isomalt and chocolate,
731
00:29:47,490 --> 00:29:50,080
and throughout the rest
of the piece we have rings,
732
00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:52,450
clockfaces, and an entremet
733
00:29:52,450 --> 00:29:55,120
that all resemble
other facets of time.
734
00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:58,130
This showpiece is giving my hair
735
00:29:59,130 --> 00:30:01,170
- a run for its money.
- It really is!
736
00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:06,430
Even the embossing that is here,
737
00:30:06,430 --> 00:30:09,350
that attention to detail
is really incredible.
738
00:30:09,350 --> 00:30:10,970
- It's so stunning.
- Thank you.
739
00:30:10,970 --> 00:30:12,600
We've also asked you to showcase
740
00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:15,480
an enchanting element
that brings this piece to life.
741
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:18,190
If you look at this cog,
it looks like there's nothing in it.
742
00:30:18,190 --> 00:30:19,310
Okay.
743
00:30:19,310 --> 00:30:21,270
And then, when we turn it on...
744
00:30:22,030 --> 00:30:24,570
it should look like there's
a whole bunch of lemons.
745
00:30:24,570 --> 00:30:25,820
Wow!
746
00:30:25,950 --> 00:30:27,860
- Look, get in there.
- Delicious.
747
00:30:28,450 --> 00:30:29,870
I'm loving this.
748
00:30:29,870 --> 00:30:31,870
You saw some "sherbet lemons,"
749
00:30:31,870 --> 00:30:33,700
which are Dumbledore's favorite.
750
00:30:33,700 --> 00:30:34,870
The outer shell
751
00:30:34,870 --> 00:30:37,580
is made of white chocolate
and cocoa butter.
752
00:30:37,580 --> 00:30:39,670
Inside, we've got a frangipane,
753
00:30:39,670 --> 00:30:41,880
a cherry confit, and a cherry mousse.
754
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:43,840
It looks very hyper-real.
755
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:46,260
Even looks like it's just been,
like, rained on.
756
00:30:46,260 --> 00:30:47,510
I know!
757
00:30:48,090 --> 00:30:51,680
This lemon has transformed
into a cherry dessert.
758
00:30:52,470 --> 00:30:54,220
The first thing I was
mainly thinking of
759
00:30:54,220 --> 00:30:55,390
when I had the first bite
760
00:30:55,390 --> 00:30:56,980
was just the texture was so good.
761
00:30:57,390 --> 00:31:01,480
Like, the fluffiness of
the cherry kind of creamy bit
762
00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:03,110
in comparison to this hard shell,
763
00:31:03,110 --> 00:31:04,360
I really like that.
764
00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:07,860
But I could have done with
a bit more of the frangipane,
765
00:31:07,860 --> 00:31:09,240
but the rest of the balance
766
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:10,570
that you have going through this,
767
00:31:10,700 --> 00:31:14,620
the texture of this mousse,
the tartness, beautiful.
768
00:31:14,620 --> 00:31:15,790
Thank you.
769
00:31:15,790 --> 00:31:19,580
Up here, we have an entremet.
It's built with a ginger cake.
770
00:31:19,580 --> 00:31:21,500
We made a miso salted caramel,
771
00:31:21,500 --> 00:31:24,170
and we folded in some pears
as well for that,
772
00:31:24,170 --> 00:31:25,340
for some texture.
773
00:31:25,340 --> 00:31:28,050
And that is enrobed
with cream cheese mousse.
774
00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:30,380
It's delicious. I would say
775
00:31:30,390 --> 00:31:32,430
I'm definitely getting
the ginger, like, spice.
776
00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:38,890
This cream cheese mousse
that is like the best version
777
00:31:38,890 --> 00:31:42,860
of a cheesecake
I have ever tasted is so good.
778
00:31:42,860 --> 00:31:44,230
Thank you.
779
00:31:44,230 --> 00:31:50,030
Now, this showpiece could be
your ticket to the finale.
780
00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:54,620
Well, you may leave
the headmaster's office for now.
781
00:31:54,740 --> 00:31:55,830
Thank you.
782
00:31:58,750 --> 00:32:01,460
Making this piece,
it gave me a few gray hairs.
783
00:32:01,460 --> 00:32:03,710
I mean, there was wings falling off,
784
00:32:03,710 --> 00:32:05,420
there was bodies falling off.
785
00:32:06,250 --> 00:32:07,840
But, I mean, honestly,
786
00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:09,510
we started off this challenge,
you know,
787
00:32:09,510 --> 00:32:12,680
with the metaphor of rising up
from the ashes.
788
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:13,840
At this point,
789
00:32:13,850 --> 00:32:17,060
I just hope we can still make
that true and make that happen.
790
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:20,190
And I just really want to
make it to the finale.
791
00:32:23,730 --> 00:32:25,400
- Wow.
- Wow.
792
00:32:27,610 --> 00:32:29,190
Sorry, I couldn't resist.
793
00:32:29,190 --> 00:32:31,360
I'm glad, because we've been
doing it as well, so...
794
00:32:31,990 --> 00:32:33,780
Elizabeth and Juan,
795
00:32:33,780 --> 00:32:37,330
it is very obvious here
what your inspiration was.
796
00:32:37,740 --> 00:32:41,250
Fawkes the Phoenix.
This looks incredible.
797
00:32:41,250 --> 00:32:43,750
What beautiful vibrant colors
that you have,
798
00:32:43,750 --> 00:32:45,210
what lovely stature,
799
00:32:45,210 --> 00:32:48,800
even the pose that you've got
Fawkes in. Bravo.
800
00:32:51,170 --> 00:32:53,180
Fawkes is made out of cake
801
00:32:53,590 --> 00:32:56,220
and also modeling chocolate
fondant mix,
802
00:32:56,220 --> 00:32:59,100
a little bit of gum paste,
modeling chocolate head,
803
00:32:59,100 --> 00:33:02,480
and wafer paper for
the little plume feathers on top.
804
00:33:03,350 --> 00:33:06,480
So what is the
transformational element?
805
00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:09,070
So as we know,
when Fawkes goes on fire,
806
00:33:09,070 --> 00:33:11,570
he just bursts into ashes.
807
00:33:15,410 --> 00:33:18,410
Then he reborns into Baby Fawkes.
808
00:33:18,410 --> 00:33:20,870
Here comes Baby Fawkes!
809
00:33:20,870 --> 00:33:23,580
- Hey! Baby Fawkes.
- Baby Fawkes! Welcome.
810
00:33:23,580 --> 00:33:26,210
The Baby Fawkes is just
absolutely adorable.
811
00:33:26,210 --> 00:33:29,630
I can't wait for him to take flight
into his new world.
812
00:33:29,630 --> 00:33:31,960
I love the idea of these flames
813
00:33:31,970 --> 00:33:34,220
and even the black chocolate shards
814
00:33:34,220 --> 00:33:37,010
that you've got kind of leading
up to the flames. It's genius.
815
00:33:37,010 --> 00:33:38,510
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
816
00:33:38,510 --> 00:33:41,180
For our first tasting,
actually is the ashes.
817
00:33:41,180 --> 00:33:43,270
So for that, we have a carrot cake.
818
00:33:43,270 --> 00:33:45,600
Then we have a pecan gianduja.
819
00:33:45,900 --> 00:33:47,230
That's going to give us some crunchy,
820
00:33:47,230 --> 00:33:49,270
but also some heat element into it.
821
00:33:49,270 --> 00:33:51,230
Then we have a mascarpone mousse
822
00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:53,150
and then a pineapple compote.
823
00:33:53,150 --> 00:33:54,740
I had one bit, I was like, "Whew!"
824
00:33:54,740 --> 00:33:56,490
It was like, "Wait, what was that?"
825
00:33:57,030 --> 00:33:58,030
Taking that in.
826
00:34:02,540 --> 00:34:04,330
It was definitely quite a kick.
827
00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:14,800
Taking that in.
828
00:34:17,720 --> 00:34:21,180
That cayenne comes in
from down, down your toes,
829
00:34:21,180 --> 00:34:23,060
and it was like, bam!
830
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:26,690
I think that it may have gotten
a little too spicy
831
00:34:26,690 --> 00:34:28,770
- after it baked and as it sat.
- As it ages.
832
00:34:28,940 --> 00:34:31,980
That said, I think that the crumble
833
00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:34,690
is really wonderful.
834
00:34:36,150 --> 00:34:38,240
Let's get on to your second taster.
835
00:34:38,240 --> 00:34:43,450
What I have for you
is a zesty lemon cream cake
836
00:34:43,450 --> 00:34:45,370
with a lemon crémeux,
837
00:34:45,370 --> 00:34:49,290
and also a crunchy,
slightly sour meringue layer.
838
00:34:49,670 --> 00:34:51,380
Admittedly, the cake
is a little crumbly...
839
00:34:53,090 --> 00:34:55,960
but the flavor is fantastic.
840
00:34:55,970 --> 00:34:58,970
I'm definitely getting sour,
I'm definitely getting sweet.
841
00:34:58,970 --> 00:35:00,090
Thank you.
842
00:35:00,100 --> 00:35:02,550
I don't think I've ever had
a layer of meringue in a cake.
843
00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:04,600
It's usually the exterior
of something.
844
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:06,310
This is really nice to see it
on the inside.
845
00:35:06,310 --> 00:35:08,060
It brings a whole
different texture to it.
846
00:35:08,060 --> 00:35:10,270
The meringue is definitely
my favorite element
847
00:35:10,270 --> 00:35:11,770
to the mouthful I've had here.
848
00:35:11,770 --> 00:35:14,860
Elizabeth and Juan,
we'll call you back later.
849
00:35:14,860 --> 00:35:16,240
- Thank you very much.
- Thank you.
850
00:35:18,700 --> 00:35:21,280
We did not come here to lose.
851
00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:23,780
We're hungry for a win
in the finale, for sure.
852
00:35:23,790 --> 00:35:26,290
Coming into this challenge,
it's not our cleanest work.
853
00:35:26,290 --> 00:35:27,960
But Miko nailed his flavors
on the yuzu,
854
00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:29,290
I nailed my tasting,
855
00:35:29,290 --> 00:35:32,040
so I'm optimistically hopeful.
We got this.
856
00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:39,930
Miko and Chris,
857
00:35:39,930 --> 00:35:42,550
we're very excited
to check out your showpiece.
858
00:35:42,550 --> 00:35:44,220
Oh, we're so excited too.
859
00:35:44,890 --> 00:35:47,060
This is the entrance
into Dumbledore's office.
860
00:35:47,060 --> 00:35:48,270
And with the password...
861
00:35:48,270 --> 00:35:49,600
What's the password?
862
00:35:50,310 --> 00:35:51,860
"Sherbet lemon."
863
00:35:56,690 --> 00:35:58,240
I like what I'm seeing.
864
00:36:00,740 --> 00:36:02,410
So it is a chocolate frame,
865
00:36:02,410 --> 00:36:03,910
and the slats that Miko painted on
866
00:36:03,910 --> 00:36:05,990
are also casted out of chocolate.
867
00:36:05,990 --> 00:36:07,490
So on this side,
868
00:36:07,500 --> 00:36:09,620
you will see the portrait
of Dumbledore.
869
00:36:09,620 --> 00:36:10,790
There he is!
870
00:36:10,790 --> 00:36:13,840
But it transforms
to the portrait of Snape.
871
00:36:16,130 --> 00:36:17,170
It's definitely Snape.
872
00:36:18,380 --> 00:36:19,590
This just really comes alive.
873
00:36:19,590 --> 00:36:22,470
So it really feels like magic
out of this frame.
874
00:36:22,470 --> 00:36:23,680
- Thank you so much.
- Thank you.
875
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:26,390
You do get
the optical illusion, so bravo.
876
00:36:26,390 --> 00:36:27,510
But at the same time,
877
00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:31,230
I can see a lot of chocolate
binding all of this together.
878
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:33,560
With a bit more finesse,
879
00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:36,610
you really could have achieved
something that would have been
880
00:36:36,610 --> 00:36:38,280
mind-blowingly remarkable.
881
00:36:38,570 --> 00:36:40,530
But having said that,
882
00:36:40,650 --> 00:36:43,490
I've never seen anything
quite like this.
883
00:36:43,490 --> 00:36:44,910
- Thank you so much, Chef.
- Thank you.
884
00:36:44,910 --> 00:36:46,950
So my tasting element
are the candles.
885
00:36:46,950 --> 00:36:48,330
So I did peanut butter mousse
886
00:36:48,330 --> 00:36:50,580
with caramelized
Oaxacan spiced peanuts
887
00:36:50,580 --> 00:36:52,620
and Concord grape gelée.
888
00:36:55,790 --> 00:36:58,460
I love absolutely every flavor
that you've got in here,
889
00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:01,590
but I'd say this chocolate shell
is quite thick,
890
00:37:01,590 --> 00:37:03,720
but I want to keep
digging out more.
891
00:37:03,720 --> 00:37:05,640
- It's really delicious.
- Thank you very much.
892
00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:07,890
I love peanut butter, so I was...
893
00:37:08,310 --> 00:37:09,470
a bit worried that I wouldn't love
894
00:37:09,470 --> 00:37:11,980
the more unusual take on it,
but I do.
895
00:37:11,980 --> 00:37:13,390
- Thank you very much.
- Thank you.
896
00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:15,270
So the painting
is not just a painting,
897
00:37:15,270 --> 00:37:17,190
it also happens to be
my tasting element.
898
00:37:17,570 --> 00:37:20,690
So inside the painting
is actually my cake.
899
00:37:21,150 --> 00:37:23,860
So the flavors are candied yuzu,
900
00:37:23,860 --> 00:37:25,910
a layer of yuzu buttercream,
901
00:37:25,910 --> 00:37:30,040
yuzu curd, and white chocolate
coated yuzu peels.
902
00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:33,000
I'm a big fan of yuzu as a flavor,
903
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:35,920
and I feel like you can definitely
note and taste that it's that.
904
00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:38,380
I mean, the two layers here
were just my favorite,
905
00:37:38,380 --> 00:37:39,960
the cream and that cake.
906
00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:41,920
It's like a fluffy, beautiful cloud.
907
00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:43,010
Thank you.
908
00:37:43,010 --> 00:37:45,380
You've actually got
a really fresh yuzu flavor
909
00:37:45,390 --> 00:37:46,590
that comes through in the sponge,
910
00:37:46,590 --> 00:37:48,260
which that's actually
quite hard to achieve.
911
00:37:48,970 --> 00:37:50,640
You know what I like
about your cake?
912
00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:52,060
The different textures.
913
00:37:52,810 --> 00:37:54,020
There's nothing on my plate.
914
00:37:54,390 --> 00:37:56,730
Thank you.
That's the best compliment ever.
915
00:37:56,730 --> 00:37:57,940
Thank you so much, Chef.
916
00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:01,440
We'll see you back here
in Dumbledore's office shortly.
917
00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:02,530
Thank you.
918
00:38:02,650 --> 00:38:04,030
- Thank you so much.
- Thank you.
919
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:20,420
Teams, your edible sculptures
were the biggest and best yet.
920
00:38:20,670 --> 00:38:22,300
But as you know,
921
00:38:22,710 --> 00:38:26,510
only one team
can win our final advantage.
922
00:38:27,430 --> 00:38:28,590
And that team
923
00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:30,930
will be going straight through
to the finale.
924
00:38:33,020 --> 00:38:34,310
That team is...
925
00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:40,480
Zoe and Jordan.
926
00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:42,940
- Oh my God. Oh my God!
- No way!
927
00:38:45,610 --> 00:38:48,700
- This is overdue! It's overdue!
- I know it is! We finally won.
928
00:38:48,700 --> 00:38:50,120
We won a challenge.
929
00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:52,240
If anything, it's the most
important challenge to win.
930
00:38:52,660 --> 00:38:54,250
- Yes. Yes.
- And we're in the finale.
931
00:38:54,910 --> 00:38:57,790
We loved how
your Time-Turner showpiece
932
00:38:57,790 --> 00:39:00,500
was both magical and mechanical.
933
00:39:00,500 --> 00:39:01,630
I feel like
934
00:39:01,630 --> 00:39:03,510
that's something Dumbledore
himself would have loved.
935
00:39:05,050 --> 00:39:06,800
Now it's time to find out
936
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:09,640
who you will be competing against
for the championship,
937
00:39:10,140 --> 00:39:12,180
and who will be heading home.
938
00:39:15,230 --> 00:39:16,940
Elizabeth and Juan.
939
00:39:18,190 --> 00:39:21,310
Your Fawkes showpiece was fire.
940
00:39:23,690 --> 00:39:26,990
But the texture of your lemon cake
941
00:39:27,110 --> 00:39:30,030
was a little bit off and crumbly.
942
00:39:30,820 --> 00:39:33,620
And Juan, the cayenne
made your carrot cake
943
00:39:33,620 --> 00:39:35,830
a little too hot to handle.
944
00:39:37,210 --> 00:39:40,790
Miko and Chris, you gave us
so much more than a dessert.
945
00:39:42,340 --> 00:39:45,550
Your showpiece
was an edible optical illusion.
946
00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:46,840
Thank you.
947
00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:48,420
But the execution of your showpiece
948
00:39:48,430 --> 00:39:50,590
was sloppy in a number of places.
949
00:39:50,590 --> 00:39:53,640
We love the creativity
of your candle tasting element,
950
00:39:54,310 --> 00:39:58,520
but the chocolate around
that candle was way too thick.
951
00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:03,230
This was, by far,
952
00:40:03,230 --> 00:40:05,730
the most difficult decision
we've had to make
953
00:40:05,730 --> 00:40:06,860
in this competition.
954
00:40:10,530 --> 00:40:13,320
But in the end, we all agreed.
955
00:40:15,790 --> 00:40:19,750
The team that will be moving on
to the finale is...
956
00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:24,090
Elizabeth and Juan.
957
00:40:26,050 --> 00:40:27,210
Congratulations.
958
00:40:29,300 --> 00:40:33,010
Miko and Chris, we want
to thank you guys so much
959
00:40:33,010 --> 00:40:36,640
for all the amazing showpieces
that you've created
960
00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:38,890
on all these Harry Potter movie sets.
961
00:40:38,890 --> 00:40:40,850
You guys are such a great team,
962
00:40:40,850 --> 00:40:43,190
but I'm afraid
that your journey ends here.
963
00:40:43,690 --> 00:40:44,690
Thank you.
964
00:40:45,110 --> 00:40:46,110
Bye, guys.
965
00:40:46,610 --> 00:40:48,150
So unfortunately,
we're leaving Hogwarts.
966
00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:49,490
It's kind of bittersweet.
967
00:40:49,490 --> 00:40:51,280
The two teams that are going
to the finale
968
00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:52,700
are absolutely phenomenal.
969
00:40:52,700 --> 00:40:55,370
We came in proud Slytherins.
We're leaving proud Slytherins.
970
00:40:55,370 --> 00:40:57,330
And secretly, I know there are
a lot of people
971
00:40:57,330 --> 00:40:59,240
that are actually Slytherins
and don't want to admit it,
972
00:40:59,250 --> 00:41:00,410
but now maybe they will.
973
00:41:02,750 --> 00:41:06,170
Congratulations, Zoe and Jordan
and Elizabeth and Juan.
974
00:41:06,670 --> 00:41:10,340
You are the Harry Potter:
Wizards of Baking finalists.
975
00:41:13,340 --> 00:41:18,060
And I hope you're ready
for the biggest bake of your lives.
976
00:41:21,850 --> 00:41:22,890
Next time...
977
00:41:22,890 --> 00:41:24,230
What you present in this hall
978
00:41:24,230 --> 00:41:26,060
will determine
which team will be crowned
979
00:41:26,060 --> 00:41:29,190
the first ever
Wizards of Baking champions.
980
00:41:29,820 --> 00:41:32,360
The final task will push our teams...
981
00:41:33,030 --> 00:41:34,030
Look at that.
982
00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:35,700
...like never before.
983
00:41:35,700 --> 00:41:36,870
Ouch! Medic.
984
00:41:36,870 --> 00:41:39,200
I've got one thing that sums up
how I feel right now.
985
00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:42,000
They'll create their largest
986
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:44,580
and most elaborate showpieces yet...
987
00:41:44,580 --> 00:41:45,710
This is a big risk.
988
00:41:45,710 --> 00:41:48,090
I hope it shows the judges
that we're not messing around.
989
00:41:48,090 --> 00:41:49,550
...and present them
990
00:41:49,550 --> 00:41:53,510
in front of their most formidable
group of critics.
991
00:41:53,510 --> 00:41:56,550
Which team
will make culinary history?
992
00:41:57,260 --> 00:42:01,980
The winners of Harry Potter:
Wizards of Baking are...
