This week is all about celebrating as it's festival week. For the signature, the bakers are required to make twenty-four festival buns apiece, they need to be yeast raised and meant to celebrate something, whether it be a holiday or something else. And in setting the technical this week, Paul wants a perfect texture both inside and out in the bakers making twelve Sicilian casatelle apiece, they a ricotta-filled, fried pastry. The bakers then move half way around the world to Malaysia via Indonesia for the showstopper in each making a kek lapis sarawak, a multi-colored and geometric patterned grilled cake. The bakers need to show precision in making the layers even, any errors which are only highlighted by the layers being different colors. Another challenge is the grilling of the cake, as any failure in later grilling will affect the layers already grilled.
