By Kate Halliwell • 1 min
Kate is joined by genuine British person Lucy Ford to discuss “Dessert Week” and the intricacies of the definition of “pudding” (0:30). We discuss a light and airy pavlova signature challenge (7:25), a tricky sticky technical challenge (24:50), and a showstopper challenge filled with set custard (34:10). Then we do a special Bake Off grannies ranking in honor of Maggie (42:30) and we hand out our awards for soggiest bottom, most absurdly British moment, and more (48:05).
