We gotta make sure that we deliver.

We're gonna go all out,

and we're gonna do a Screaming Yo-yo.

They're gonna be the same flavor.

The idea is to have a creamy cookie sandwich,

fill it up with passion fruit gelée and then pumpkin flan.

And how confident are you with the flavors?

Well, I'm very excited with the flavors.

I oversee three restaurants in LA.

It's more into my world, making smaller items.

I specialize in plated desserts that looks like something,

but it's not what it is.

One of the coolest desserts that I ever made is a mojito.

It looks like a lime,

but inside has a lot of different textures.

And it was recognized as one of the four best desserts

in California by the Michelin Guide.

We're doing pumpkin. We're doing passion fruit.

And this is one of my favorite mixes.

When you go to a game, what do you eat?

You eat a candy bar, you eat pretzels.

ELIZABETH: Peanuts.

Peanuts. So it's gonna be nice and salty, but sweet.

This is a big, big pastry challenge.

We have made sure that we play off of each other's strengths.

So I'm making the cake portion, and then you're running along...

- (JUAN CHUCKLES) - ...and running circles around me.

I have to fill my Snitch mold. I need to make 50 Snitches,

so it's 100 of these.

Make a lot of desserts for a lot of people.

This is your element.

We got the Flourish and Blotts bookshop,

which actually I'm pretty pleased about.

Although, there's only really one thing a bookshop sells.

Yeah. Just a bunch of books.

Ladies and gentlemen, what an extraordinary moment this is.

When young Harry stepped into Flourish and Blotts

this morning to purchase my autobiography, Magical Me...

(CROWD APPLAUDS, CHATTERS EXCITEDLY)

ZOE: The bookshop itself has got a lot of wood

and a lot of paper,

and so we thought it would be fun to incorporate

some sort of wood-type flavors.

Ooh, that smells nice.

So we're making miniature edible books.

And have an edible wrap and a binding around it.

Everything's gonna be stacked in layers with a lemon,

olive oil, rosemary, and thyme cake.

JORDAN: On top of that it's gonna be a gelée

and a limoncello lemon mousse.

And then add some limoncello, fresh lemon juice,

heavy whipping cream, and some vanilla.

Gonna have a little bit of a punch.

It's gonna be unexpected.

Being in the bottom three in the last challenge

puts the fire in our bellies.

Not only do we need to impress the judges,

we are gonna be feeding a bunch of die-hard Harry Potter fans.

Entremet usually is a singular portion dessert

Hemu is working on an orange vanilla sponge.

They're going to be smoked bourbon mousse

with apple butter, apple compote,

and a rosemary and crème fraîche cake.

So I'm peeling the apples for, uh, wait.

The apple butter and the apple compote.

Thanks, Chris.

And I'm also making the cake.

So I have some of the spheres molded already for the bubbles,

MIKO: Okay.

CHRIS: That's the bourbon smoked sugar mousse.

MIKO: Okay.

We just came from a head-to-head victory, Chris, so...

I mean, I'm excited that we won a head-to-head,

but now the judges expect way more out of us,

so we gotta deliver now.

As a fine dining pastry chef, I'm really hoping

to impress the judges with my flavor profiles.

So this is smoked bourbon barrel sugar.

So it does smell like beef jerky a little bit.

- Whoa! (COUGHS) - MIKO: Very savory.

CHRIS: I love to bring savory notes into my desserts

because I think that sets me apart from other people.

But using savory ingredients

in desserts is always a big risk

because it needs to be balanced perfectly with our sweet.

As a pastry chef, to go home on the challenge

that was made for pastry chefs

would be not only upsetting but completely embarrassing.

MIKO: More pressure.

ZOE: Jordan, does this fondant look about right

for the small books?

- A bit darker? - JORDAN: Darker.

ZOE: Okay.

What are you working on now?

The little surprise that's gonna go on top

of the Advanced Potions book.

We can encapsulate the raspberry gel in isomalt

so that it can lay on top of the books

and then you can crack it open and something flows out.

You take some sugar, isomalt, and you cook it

to the right temperature, then you let it cool.

It'll pretty much create a bubble,

and I'll fill that bubble and I'll encapsulate it.

So I'll twist it off and it'll be stuck in there.

So the process is,

it's gotta cool in the right amount of time

so that it actually hardens

as I'm putting something in, so...

ZOE: What's happening to it?

JORDAN: It's just, it's too hot,

so the liquid just-- it's going through now.

It's just not working.

ZOE: When you say "something solid"...

JORDAN: If I do like a freeze-dried raspberry

and encapsulating that.

Yes, that's quite nice.

JORDAN: Isomalt is gonna harden better.

It's also gonna add, you know, crunch.

Oh, I see. I see.

It's important, too, to pivot.

that is gonna be in our wand.

I cast the molds, and after I fill them

with raspberry and coconut ganache.

HEMU: Right now, I'm just checking labels

for my wand boxes,

and I'm going to print them on the edible paper.

I'm channeling my daughter as I design these labels.

Normally at the home,

she helps me with all this, making labels,

making designs for my cakes, so she's amazing.

JUAN: So this is our peanut cake

that we are going to put inside the Snitch.

We're gonna squish it so it's more softy, fluffy.

So first I'm gonna start with the layer

that has the pretzel crunch and the popping candy.

So it feels like you've got a live little Snitch

that's just buzzing around in your mouth.

Then we have the cake to give that nice chewy texture.

And then we have nougat.

I pretty much got into cooking because I was just cooking

with my grandma and my mom.

Sadly, my mom passed away, but I learned that love

and that passion from being in the kitchen.

I do all of this just to make her proud.

ELIZABETH: So the best thing to make the wings out of

and look most like realistic Snitch wings is wafer paper.

Because it's very lightweight and thin,

and we need something that's gonna flap and move

with the airflow.

I've done at least 30 wings so far,

so I've still got way, way more to go.

The Snitches will be snitching.

(CHUCKLING) The Snitches will be snitching.

MITZI: I'm gonna start building the cookie.

So we're making a little sandwich

of caramelized cookie butter

filled with passion fruit and pumpkin.

MITZI: This is what is gonna be inside of our mold

that is gonna be surrounded

by a dulce de leche crémeux, which is like mousse.

This one is for the Chatting Teeth,

and we also have a Screaming Yo-yo.

LISA: You're gonna actually pull on edible fondant string.

We might be overextending ourselves,

but we need to prove ourselves, so it's a risk we need to take.

Mitzi, how are you feeling?

We have a lot of small details.

We have a lot of colors to add to our stuff.

We just gotta keep going.

Yes!

I'm making book covers.

These are gonna cover the top of our big books.

then put a little bit of detailing on them.

Diagon Alley is absolutely my favorite set.

I used to work in film,

set design, set decorating, and I was working on a project

in Leavesden, which is where the movies were filmed,

and the prop guy said to me,

"Do you want to go and have a little sneaky peek?

They're filming Harry Potter next door."

I was not gonna say no to that. It blew me away, actually.

So to be back here in this capacity

is just mind-blowing.

JORDAN: Our mini book is comprised

of a rosemary thyme olive oil cake.

So right now I'm gonna dip 'em in the white chocolate dip,

and then I'm gonna brush it

to make it look like it has pages on the edges.

This is the last element of the build,

putting the book covers on.

So I made a little template out of parchment paper.

So the effect is really like an old leather book.

A little time-consuming,

but it's gonna be worth it, 'cause I know

the judges will be looking at all the details.

I'm very competitive.

I've won three competitions on Food Network.

I only lost one, actually.

But being a part of Harry Potter,

that already brings it way past anything that I've ever done.

take a piece of the dessert, and kind of eat

ELIZABETH: And then we have to do the gold.

Obviously, it's not a Golden Snitch without the gold.

Oh, that looks amazing.

Hey Juan, you won the last challenge, right?

We did.

Partial of that win belongs to me, FYI.

- Excuse me? - ELIZABETH: Oh!

I don't know if you remember this,

but you used to work for me as a cook.

You know what they say,

when the student becomes the teacher.

I worked for Chris when I was pretty young.

That was my first time when I came to America.

He was quite a hard boss. (CHUCKLES)

But he did teach me how to be a chef.

CHRIS: So we're coming for you for this one.

You better hope that you win

after the disadvantage you gave us.

(ELIZABETH AND JUAN LAUGH)

Listen, with that comment,

I'm definitely winning this challenge.

We'll see.

CHRIS: Right now, I'm unmolding the logs.

So far they look good.

I need these to be pretty solid so I can dip them in chocolate.

If they're not solid enough, what's gonna happen is

when I go to dip them in the chocolate,

all the layers are just gonna fall apart

and I'm gonna end up with a big mess on my hands.

Bakers, you have 20 minutes left.

MITZI: We have to hurry up.

LISA: I feel the clock ticking and I want to go faster,

but when you're doing detailed work,

you almost have to go slower.

And if I speed up this process,

it's not going to matter how they taste.

They're not gonna look right.

We got this.

- How we doing? - ZOE: Uh...

I can't get a clean stencil.

I'm just a little bit messy. This is hard.

JORDAN: After these three,

I have five more to do to hit 50, so almost there.

Bakers, you have ten minutes left!

Ten minutes!

RICCARDO: Look at these gorgeous wand boxes. Huh?

Miko's finishing up the last of the bubbles.

No, no, no, no. This is not attached.

What's the matter with it?

The bubbles are just falling apart.

Don't paint them, actually, because I need to fix them.

Teams, two and a half minutes remaining.

Two and a half minutes.

JORDAN: This is a huge competition against the best.

We have to be ambitious,

even though I want to pull my hair out.

RICCARDO: Let's go, let's go, let's go.

love our incredible desserts.

JUAN: Almost there. We have, I would say, 20 more to put in.

CHRIS: Our display has been built

Of course you have self-opening books.

Come on, Carla.

- JOZEF: Oi! (LAUGHS) - CARLA: Whoa!

There we go. (LAUGHS)

You have the magic touch.

JORDAN: The flavors are reminiscent of an old bookstore.

So, the origins of wood. So, olive wood, lemon wood.

So, the flavors are rosemary thyme olive oil cake.

We have a raspberry rose gelée.

And then a limoncello lemon mousse.

There's an encapsulated freeze-dried raspberry on there.

- So you can crack that open. - JOZEF: Ah. There we go.

(CARLA GASPS)

Get in there.

The chocolate with the raspberry and lemon.

These are flavors that work really well together,

but you have to balance them properly,

and that's exactly what you guys have done here.

Thank you.

And then getting that herbaceousness

with the olive oil cake, I love it.

is really nice.

Chocolate shell, good crack on that.

The apple compote, nice flavors.

JOZEF: The pumpkin passion fruit.

It wasn't a flavor that kind of worked in my mind.

But it definitely works in my mouth.

Really great combination.

What do you think, Carla?

As someone from the South, people,

you need to think about having a passion fruit whip

on top of your pumpkin pie,

So the idea is also to be interactive,

- so you can play with it. - That is so much fun, guys.

- Yeah. Exactly! - So talk us through the flavors.

JUAN: Of course. At the top,

we're going to have a peanut praline,

then a peanut ganache.

We have a soft nougat,

peanut cake, and a pretzel crunch

that also has a little bit popping candy in it

- because you're eating a Snitch. - A Snitch!

So it's interactive when you eat it.

CARLA: The way I felt the Snitch in my mouth moving around

from the popping candy, it's incredible.

Thank you.

Technically, this is so well executed.

The shell and the chocolate's perfectly tempered.

I think the balance of flavors is wonderful.

Yeah. I get the chocolate.

I love the way that peanut butter oozes.

The one thing that I would change,

I want more pretzel.

I just want a little more texture in there.

Okay. Yeah.
