0:00:02 > 0:00:04Hello and welcome to the grand final of Junior Bake Off,
0:00:04 > 0:00:06where I'm sorting out the final touches
0:00:06 > 0:00:08to a very special tea party.
0:00:08 > 0:00:10Oh, yes, and it's the last challenge
0:00:10 > 0:00:12before one of our four finalists
0:00:12 > 0:00:15become the winner of Junior Bake Off.
0:00:16 > 0:00:18After 2,000 applications...
0:00:18 > 0:00:21I can't actually believe I'm here. It's like a dream.
0:00:21 > 0:00:22..900 eggs...
0:00:24 > 0:00:25..50 kilograms of flour...
0:00:27 > 0:00:29..96 blocks of butter...
0:00:29 > 0:00:30Score!
0:00:30 > 0:00:32..and a bucket-load of edible glitter...
0:00:32 > 0:00:34Done!
0:00:34 > 0:00:36..four have baked their way to the final.
0:00:36 > 0:00:37Yes.
0:00:37 > 0:00:40And today is the last chance to prove to Mary and James
0:00:40 > 0:00:43they are the Junior Bake Off Champion.
0:00:51 > 0:00:54They've proved their worth in a professional kitchen...
0:00:54 > 0:00:55That's really good.
0:00:55 > 0:00:57..impressed with their decorating skills
0:00:57 > 0:00:59and knowledge of ingredients...
0:00:59 > 0:01:01Oh, that's nutmeg.
0:01:02 > 0:01:05..and wowed one of Britain's most popular dance groups.
0:01:06 > 0:01:09Look at this!
0:01:09 > 0:01:12Today the bakers will face each other for the final time.
0:01:12 > 0:01:13With still all to bake for,
0:01:13 > 0:01:17they must produce the ultimate bakes for a tea party extravaganza.
0:01:18 > 0:01:20But who will become champion?
0:01:22 > 0:01:24Ruby from Devon.
0:01:24 > 0:01:26Calm and collected throughout,
0:01:26 > 0:01:29Ruby has stunned the judges with her perfect pastry skills.
0:01:29 > 0:01:33That is as good a choux pastry as you're going to make.
0:01:33 > 0:01:36'Whilst timing's proved testing in the Harrods kitchen.'
0:01:36 > 0:01:38Oh, no, guys!
0:01:38 > 0:01:42'Her impressive team work led to a win in the Diversity challenge.'
0:01:42 > 0:01:45I think I'm in with a chance of winning,
0:01:45 > 0:01:49but it all depends on how the other bakers bake
0:01:49 > 0:01:50and how I bake.
0:01:50 > 0:01:51Harry from Hampshire.
0:01:53 > 0:01:56Original baker Harry never fails to surprise.
0:01:56 > 0:01:59I've never put elderflower cream with lemon tart before
0:01:59 > 0:02:01and you've cracked it. That is really, really good.
0:02:01 > 0:02:03He wowed the judges in the knowledge test...
0:02:03 > 0:02:06Three out of three with the spices.
0:02:06 > 0:02:08He should be very proud.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10..and impressed with his powerful flavours.
0:02:10 > 0:02:13- Harry, is that a bit of chorizo I see in there, mate?- Yeah.
0:02:13 > 0:02:17I think, if both my bakes go to plan, my chances are very high.
0:02:17 > 0:02:19I've been practising my hardest and I really want to show
0:02:19 > 0:02:21the judges what I've got.
0:02:21 > 0:02:22Zainab from Hertfordshire.
0:02:24 > 0:02:26Ambitious Zainab caught the judges' eye
0:02:26 > 0:02:28with her decorative finishes.
0:02:28 > 0:02:30Zainab, it looks enormous fun.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33And although she faltered in the knowledge test...
0:02:33 > 0:02:35I can't remember the name.
0:02:35 > 0:02:36..she proved her professional prowess
0:02:36 > 0:02:40when her team came out on top in the professional kitchen.
0:02:40 > 0:02:41That's really good.
0:02:41 > 0:02:43I really want to bake to win today
0:02:43 > 0:02:47because I've come this far and now I just need to win it.
0:02:47 > 0:02:49And Emma from Pembrokeshire.
0:02:50 > 0:02:53Her technical ability has shone throughout.
0:02:53 > 0:02:55I think you've cracked it.
0:02:55 > 0:02:56Could eat more of those.
0:02:56 > 0:02:59And despite her feeling the pressure at times...
0:02:59 > 0:03:00Oh, no.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03She forgot to add the vanilla essence.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05Vanilla essence.
0:03:05 > 0:03:07..has always won the team challenges.
0:03:08 > 0:03:11I have been on the winning team both times in the challenges
0:03:11 > 0:03:13and that's boosted my confidence,
0:03:13 > 0:03:16so all I have to do is just bake my best.
0:03:19 > 0:03:21With the stakes at an all-time high,
0:03:21 > 0:03:24the bakers enter the tent for the last time.
0:03:32 > 0:03:36Bakers, welcome to the Junior Bake Off tent
0:03:36 > 0:03:39and your final challenge ever.
0:03:39 > 0:03:41Today, Mary and James would like you
0:03:41 > 0:03:45to present a selection of bakes to take centre stage
0:03:45 > 0:03:48at the Junior Bake Off Mad Hatter's Tea Party.
0:03:48 > 0:03:49And do you know what?
0:03:49 > 0:03:53You're going to be baking them for your friends and family.
0:03:53 > 0:03:55We'd like you to create two bakes - one sweet, one savoury.
0:03:55 > 0:03:59The flavours, design and shape is entirely up to you.
0:03:59 > 0:04:02We want to see you using some of the skills
0:04:02 > 0:04:05that you've learnt during your time here.
0:04:05 > 0:04:08Have you washed your hands?
0:04:08 > 0:04:09- KIDS:- Yes.
0:04:09 > 0:04:12On your marks, get set...bake.
0:04:15 > 0:04:17These are experienced Bake Off finalists,
0:04:17 > 0:04:19so if you want to get baking at home,
0:04:19 > 0:04:21ask an adult to help.
0:04:21 > 0:04:23Flour, salt and dried yeast.
0:04:24 > 0:04:27This grand final challenge is split into two separate bakes
0:04:27 > 0:04:29that will be judged together.
0:04:29 > 0:04:32Mary and James are looking for the best of the best.
0:04:33 > 0:04:35It is the Mad Hatter's Tea Party.
0:04:35 > 0:04:39I'm looking for something extraordinary and tasting very good.
0:04:39 > 0:04:42You know, they've got their work cut out. There's a lot to think about.
0:04:42 > 0:04:45There's a lot of variation going on in the Bake Off tent today.
0:04:45 > 0:04:47It will be surprising and interesting
0:04:47 > 0:04:48to see what they come up with.
0:04:48 > 0:04:51To kick things off, it's their savoury recipes.
0:04:52 > 0:04:55- Ruby.- Hello. - So tell us what you're making.
0:04:55 > 0:04:56I'm doing savoury eclairs,
0:04:56 > 0:04:59because things are not always what it seems...
0:04:59 > 0:05:03- You're good at eclairs, aren't you? It's one of your specialities.- Yeah.
0:05:03 > 0:05:06Ruby seriously impressed when she made sweet eclairs,
0:05:06 > 0:05:07so she's hoping her savoury ones,
0:05:07 > 0:05:10filled with smoked salmon pate and topped with lemon jelly,
0:05:10 > 0:05:12will help her claim the title.
0:05:13 > 0:05:15Have you made it lots of times?
0:05:15 > 0:05:16Yeah. Quite a lot of times.
0:05:16 > 0:05:18And what did the family say about it?
0:05:18 > 0:05:20Everyone really liked it.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22So you're confident you're going to be able to do it in the time
0:05:22 > 0:05:24and it's going to work out?
0:05:24 > 0:05:25- Yeah.- Good luck.
0:05:25 > 0:05:26Thank you.
0:05:29 > 0:05:35For my savoury, I'm making chilli, paprika and pepper scones.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37Emma's scones will be given an extra kick
0:05:37 > 0:05:39with some spicy chorizo,
0:05:39 > 0:05:42and will be filled with a chilli cream cheese.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44But things aren't going quite to plan with her dough.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47That looks a bit loose. What's that all about?
0:05:47 > 0:05:49I've got no idea. It's kind of gone quite loose.
0:05:50 > 0:05:53- I might have to start again. - Take your time. Focus, OK?
0:05:53 > 0:05:55These are for your friends and family
0:05:55 > 0:05:57and possibly...that crown.
0:05:59 > 0:06:03Emma's not the only baker with a sticky situation on her hands.
0:06:03 > 0:06:06- ZAINAB:- Well, I'm making mini cocktail pizzas.
0:06:06 > 0:06:09I've just got to start again, because my dough was way too sticky.
0:06:10 > 0:06:15This time I'm going to put less milk and water in.
0:06:15 > 0:06:17Zainab is making five mini pizzas
0:06:17 > 0:06:21with a green pepper and tomato sauce, tuna and melted cheese,
0:06:21 > 0:06:23and five flavoured with garlic butter.
0:06:23 > 0:06:26All decorated with paper cocktail umbrellas.
0:06:27 > 0:06:30- So this is your yeasted dough? - Yeah.
0:06:30 > 0:06:32- Have you already made one? - Yes, I have.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35I made one, but it was way too sticky, so I had to start again.
0:06:35 > 0:06:39I think we better leave you in peace and let's hope you finish on time.
0:06:39 > 0:06:41- Good luck.- Thank you.
0:06:41 > 0:06:44Zainab is the only baker making a yeasted dough,
0:06:44 > 0:06:46so has to leave it to prove before she can roll it out.
0:06:46 > 0:06:48MACHINE BEEPS
0:06:48 > 0:06:51I think other competitors are a bit ahead of time,
0:06:51 > 0:06:53but I'm just trying to focus on my own bakes
0:06:53 > 0:06:56and worry about what I'm doing.
0:06:56 > 0:06:57The inspiration for Harry's recipe
0:06:57 > 0:07:01is taken from one of the guests at the Mad Hatter's Tea Party.
0:07:01 > 0:07:03I'm doing rabbit muffins,
0:07:03 > 0:07:05cos there's the rabbit in Alice In Wonderland.
0:07:05 > 0:07:08I tried it at home and it went really well.
0:07:08 > 0:07:11Harry's muffins also include mushrooms and chorizo.
0:07:11 > 0:07:14They'll be topped with blackberries and served in tea cups.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17Picture this scene right - all standing there.
0:07:17 > 0:07:22You've got your new shirt on. Your name gets called out.
0:07:22 > 0:07:23How would you react to that?
0:07:23 > 0:07:26I would be really, really happy.
0:07:26 > 0:07:29I've been trying to perfect my recipes for weeks
0:07:29 > 0:07:32and I'm really confident with my recipes today,
0:07:32 > 0:07:34so I think I will have a chance of winning.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44OK, bakers, you're halfway through.
0:07:52 > 0:07:54I think I'm in control.
0:07:54 > 0:07:58I've got the pastry in the oven and it's looking good.
0:07:59 > 0:08:02With so much at stake in this final challenge,
0:08:02 > 0:08:04the judges are keeping a close eye on our bakers.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08Harry's confidence seems to be growing day by day.
0:08:08 > 0:08:10I think today he's really raised his game.
0:08:10 > 0:08:12I think he's picked a good recipe here.
0:08:12 > 0:08:14I quite like the sound of Emma's bake.
0:08:14 > 0:08:16She's quite calm. She's organised.
0:08:16 > 0:08:18She knows exactly what she's doing.
0:08:19 > 0:08:22Ruby, to me, is one of those people that's been consistent
0:08:22 > 0:08:25throughout the entire Bake Off, and I love, sort of, innovation.
0:08:25 > 0:08:27- ZAINAB:- My bread has risen.
0:08:27 > 0:08:29And Zainab, I just get the feeling
0:08:29 > 0:08:30the nerves are starting to get to her.
0:08:30 > 0:08:34She's had to start her dough again, so she's under pressure for time.
0:08:40 > 0:08:43OK, bakers, there's 15 minutes left of this bake.
0:08:48 > 0:08:50That is not good at all.
0:08:50 > 0:08:52My cakes take 20 minutes to make.
0:08:52 > 0:08:5320 minutes to bake.
0:08:59 > 0:09:00Whoopsy.
0:09:02 > 0:09:04There's no way I'm going to be done on time.
0:09:05 > 0:09:07I spent too much time fiddling with my rabbit.
0:09:09 > 0:09:12Harry, Harry, Harry. You haven't even got these in yet.
0:09:12 > 0:09:14- Yeah.- How long do they take to bake? - 20.
0:09:14 > 0:09:16How you going to do it? What you going to do?
0:09:16 > 0:09:18Um... I don't know.
0:09:19 > 0:09:20And it's not only Harry who's...
0:09:20 > 0:09:23# Late, late! I'm really rather late. #
0:09:23 > 0:09:25These only need to pre bake for seven minutes,
0:09:25 > 0:09:28which I'm going to put in now.
0:09:28 > 0:09:34Um, and then they only need at least two minutes to melt the cheese
0:09:34 > 0:09:37and then they'll be done, so I think I'm going to make it just in time.
0:09:42 > 0:09:44You are into the final five minutes of this bake, guys.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01I put it up to 200 and see when they're done.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04One minute left for this challenge. That's it.
0:10:04 > 0:10:05One minute left?
0:10:14 > 0:10:18I'm thinking that I need a miracle.
0:10:21 > 0:10:24Well, my other bakes are still in the oven.
0:10:24 > 0:10:26You've got 30 seconds left. 30 seconds.
0:10:39 > 0:10:40OK, bakers, your time is up.
0:10:40 > 0:10:43Please step away from your bakes.
0:10:48 > 0:10:50Before the bakers attempt their final recipe,
0:10:50 > 0:10:53there's time for a quick breather.
0:10:53 > 0:10:57Your stuff looks so good. Mine looks absolutely terrible.
0:10:57 > 0:10:58I tried my hardest,
0:10:58 > 0:11:00but I think I could have done a little bit better.
0:11:00 > 0:11:04I think my savoury didn't go as well as I hoped it would be.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06Maybe under cooked.
0:11:06 > 0:11:10I hope my eclairs will stand out, because it's something unusual.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13I think the pressure in there was really high.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15I'm just going to have to get used to it and just do my best.
0:11:20 > 0:11:22With their savouries done and dusted,
0:11:22 > 0:11:26it's time for the bakers to face their final recipe.
0:11:28 > 0:11:33For the very last time, guys, on your marks, get set...bake.
0:11:35 > 0:11:38All the bakers have chosen to make cakes for their sweet offering.
0:11:43 > 0:11:48It feels great to be baking for the last time in the Bake Off tent.
0:11:48 > 0:11:50Hoping he doesn't have timing issues with this one,
0:11:50 > 0:11:54Harry's cake is also inspired by the White Rabbit.
0:11:54 > 0:11:57I'm making a carrot cake pocket watch,
0:11:57 > 0:12:00because the rabbit out of Alice In Wonderland,
0:12:00 > 0:12:02he has a pocket watch.
0:12:03 > 0:12:05Harry's carrot cake will be sandwiched
0:12:05 > 0:12:07with an orange and cream cheese filling
0:12:07 > 0:12:10and topped with fondant icing decorations.
0:12:10 > 0:12:11So they bake for what 20 minutes?
0:12:11 > 0:12:13- 30.- 30 minutes.- Yeah.
0:12:13 > 0:12:17And they've gotta be baked, cooled, iced,
0:12:17 > 0:12:19- and then you're going to put the fondant on the top.- Yeah.
0:12:19 > 0:12:21So you going to be pushed for time though.
0:12:21 > 0:12:23Pushed for time, but I'll be fine.
0:12:23 > 0:12:26I think he's quite confident about this one.
0:12:26 > 0:12:28Let's hope Harry can pull it off this time.
0:12:32 > 0:12:33I'm making a chequered cake.
0:12:35 > 0:12:38The Mad Hatter's... You have loads of different colours,
0:12:38 > 0:12:41so I thought I should do a chequered cake.
0:12:41 > 0:12:45Zainab's chequered cake will be made of vanilla and peppermint sponges
0:12:45 > 0:12:47sandwiched with butter cream and topped with whipped cream
0:12:47 > 0:12:50and displayed on a board of fondant decorations.
0:12:51 > 0:12:53If I was to call out your name,
0:12:53 > 0:12:56"Zainab, you're the winner of Junior Bake Off 2013,"
0:12:56 > 0:12:57how would you react?
0:12:57 > 0:13:00I'd probably just scream with joy, really.
0:13:00 > 0:13:01Beautiful.
0:13:02 > 0:13:04Each baker is putting their own spin
0:13:04 > 0:13:05on the Mad Hatter theme.
0:13:05 > 0:13:08But Emma is taking it literally.
0:13:08 > 0:13:10Well, I'm making a Mad Hatter's hat.
0:13:10 > 0:13:13I'm doing a layer of shortbread at the bottom for the base,
0:13:13 > 0:13:16and then a chocolate cake for the actual hat.
0:13:17 > 0:13:20Emma's Mad Hatter shortbread base and chocolate cake
0:13:20 > 0:13:23will be covered with fresh strawberry and raspberry cream
0:13:23 > 0:13:27and finished off with black fondant icing.
0:13:27 > 0:13:30You shortbread only takes eight minutes. It must be very thin.
0:13:30 > 0:13:31It is quite thin.
0:13:31 > 0:13:33How do you feel about being in the final?
0:13:33 > 0:13:34It still doesn't feel real.
0:13:34 > 0:13:37Well, I think we're in for an exciting finish.
0:13:37 > 0:13:39- Good. Well, best of luck. - Thank you.
0:13:41 > 0:13:43Continuing with her topsy-turvy theme,
0:13:43 > 0:13:46Ruby is planning some exciting flavours.
0:13:46 > 0:13:51I am making the Mad Hatter's Earl Grey tea cakes,
0:13:51 > 0:13:54because, at tea parties, they have cucumber sandwiches.
0:13:54 > 0:13:57I'm doing a cucumber frosting.
0:13:57 > 0:13:58Ruby's Earl Grey tea cakes
0:13:58 > 0:14:00have tea leaves ground into the mixture.
0:14:00 > 0:14:04Topped with cucumber and lime icing, they'll be served in tea cups.
0:14:04 > 0:14:07So how do you get the cucumber into the frosting?
0:14:07 > 0:14:10Um, well, I grate the cucumber and then I put some salt in
0:14:10 > 0:14:14to make the cucumber juices come out.
0:14:14 > 0:14:17So it's the salty juice you're using in the...
0:14:17 > 0:14:20- It's not that salty. It's just a little bit of salt.- Right.
0:14:26 > 0:14:27- ZAINAB:- It has to be really precise,
0:14:27 > 0:14:29cos otherwise, when you try and layer them,
0:14:29 > 0:14:32the chequers won't be the same size.
0:14:42 > 0:14:44Phew, it's hot!
0:14:48 > 0:14:51OK, bakers, 30 minutes left.
0:14:51 > 0:14:52That's it.
0:15:01 > 0:15:03That is the best I have ever made it.
0:15:09 > 0:15:10That's not ready.
0:15:12 > 0:15:13It's been for about an hour.
0:15:13 > 0:15:15HARRY: What temperature is your oven at?
0:15:15 > 0:15:17- 180.- Are you sure?
0:15:17 > 0:15:19- Yeah.- Uh-oh.
0:15:21 > 0:15:25OK, bakers, there's 15 minutes left. Your final bake.
0:15:25 > 0:15:27I'm really happy with how it's going.
0:15:27 > 0:15:29I'm just going to lift the top on.
0:15:36 > 0:15:39- You've done this before, haven't you? ZAINAB:- Yes, I have.
0:15:39 > 0:15:42Steady hand. That's right.
0:15:42 > 0:15:43Yep. That's perfect.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51That's actually... That's cooked.
0:15:53 > 0:15:56Right in the middle where that crack is... No, not there.
0:15:56 > 0:15:57- HARRY: There?- There.
0:15:58 > 0:16:00Yeah, it's cooked. Superb.
0:16:00 > 0:16:01It's cooked.
0:16:09 > 0:16:10It'll have to do.
0:16:21 > 0:16:24My icing is stuck to the table cos I've left it for too long,
0:16:24 > 0:16:27and cos the tent's quite warm, it's stuck.
0:16:27 > 0:16:30So I'm just going to roll it out again and put it on immediately.
0:16:33 > 0:16:34I'm just going to do this
0:16:34 > 0:16:38because I don't have time to whisk my double cream,
0:16:38 > 0:16:41but I think it will still taste and look really good.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47Yep, it's good, it's good, it's good. Yes!
0:16:59 > 0:17:02Going to do this now and then...
0:17:02 > 0:17:03Well done.
0:17:08 > 0:17:10OK, guys, this is it.
0:17:10 > 0:17:12One minute left to bake. One minute.
0:17:27 > 0:17:29OK, guys, that's it. Your time is up.
0:17:29 > 0:17:32Your last challenge in the Bake Off tent is over.
0:17:32 > 0:17:34Step away from your bakes.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10With both the sweet and savoury bakes complete,
0:18:10 > 0:18:14the Mad Hatter's challenge is over.
0:18:14 > 0:18:17Our bakers have done all they can.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19But will it be enough to earn them the title
0:18:19 > 0:18:21of Junior Bake Off Champion?
0:18:33 > 0:18:37I'm hoping the judges will say they really like the flavours of my foods
0:18:37 > 0:18:40and I'm hoping they're not going to say it's under baked.
0:18:44 > 0:18:47So shall we start with the scones?
0:18:47 > 0:18:50Well, first glance they look great. Probably could have done
0:18:50 > 0:18:52with a little bit of egg wash over the top.
0:18:56 > 0:18:57They're light.
0:18:57 > 0:19:00They are a little bit on the hot side.
0:19:00 > 0:19:02It's a very nice texture,
0:19:02 > 0:19:06but I think a little more seasoning would make them.
0:19:06 > 0:19:08And then we come to the Mad Hatter's hat.
0:19:08 > 0:19:10I like the design of it.
0:19:17 > 0:19:20Chocolate cake's fantastic.
0:19:20 > 0:19:21Really, really nice flavour.
0:19:23 > 0:19:24Absolutely.
0:19:24 > 0:19:29And the shortbread... it tastes buttery underneath.
0:19:29 > 0:19:30Perfectly done.
0:19:30 > 0:19:31Well done.
0:19:42 > 0:19:45I think they won't like my pizzas
0:19:45 > 0:19:49because I think the garlic bread didn't cook for long enough.
0:19:52 > 0:19:54You've chosen some interesting flavours.
0:19:57 > 0:20:00The thing about pizza dough is that it actually proves
0:20:00 > 0:20:01while it's in the oven as well.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03So even if it doesn't cook for very long
0:20:03 > 0:20:04it's going to puff up again,
0:20:04 > 0:20:05so if you don't roll it out that thin
0:20:05 > 0:20:08you're going to get this sort of bread dough effect.
0:20:08 > 0:20:11The topping was absolutely scrumptious,
0:20:11 > 0:20:14but the actual dough itself should have had longer in the oven
0:20:14 > 0:20:15and a hotter oven.
0:20:15 > 0:20:16Right, now this cake.
0:20:16 > 0:20:20To get that actually cooked and shaped exactly like that,
0:20:20 > 0:20:21it's a great effort.
0:20:21 > 0:20:23You see, that sandwiched together,
0:20:23 > 0:20:26you put a good amount of the orange icing...
0:20:30 > 0:20:33..the pink peppermint is pink peppermint
0:20:33 > 0:20:37and your butter cream is really absolutely delicious.
0:20:37 > 0:20:38It's a great effort.
0:20:51 > 0:20:53I'm feeling quite confident going into the judging
0:20:53 > 0:20:55because I think I've done all I can,
0:20:55 > 0:20:59but I'm preparing for anything because it's the judges' decision.
0:21:01 > 0:21:03Fantastic that you put the fruit in the centre.
0:21:03 > 0:21:05I can see that the texture is really light.
0:21:05 > 0:21:08That's unusual, particularly when you're putting
0:21:08 > 0:21:09things like meat in there.
0:21:14 > 0:21:17Well, it's the first time I've ever had a rabbit muffin.
0:21:17 > 0:21:19- Do you know what, Harry? You've pulled it off.- Thank you.
0:21:19 > 0:21:21It tastes really, really good.
0:21:21 > 0:21:26I think it's totally original and the theme is Mad Hatter's Tea Party.
0:21:26 > 0:21:27It's mad but it's wonderful.
0:21:29 > 0:21:30So we have here the cake.
0:21:32 > 0:21:33You can see it's lovely and moist.
0:21:33 > 0:21:36That's the thing with carrot cake - keeping it lovely and moist.
0:21:36 > 0:21:39You've got a really good sponge there.
0:21:39 > 0:21:42The texture is beautifully even.
0:21:42 > 0:21:45It's light, it's just cooked perfectly.
0:21:45 > 0:21:47What could we wish for more?
0:21:49 > 0:21:51If that was served in a restaurant, I would buy that.
0:21:51 > 0:21:54- Mm, it's good!- Thank you. - Really, really good.
0:22:05 > 0:22:07My bakes went pretty well.
0:22:07 > 0:22:09I'd like to think I've done enough
0:22:09 > 0:22:11to become the Junior Bake Off Champion.
0:22:13 > 0:22:14If you keep making eclairs like this,
0:22:14 > 0:22:16you'll put me out of a job, to be honest,
0:22:16 > 0:22:20because you seem to get these absolutely perfect, don't you?
0:22:20 > 0:22:23I mean, certainly very unique, it's very different.
0:22:23 > 0:22:25The choux pastry's lovely and light.
0:22:28 > 0:22:32It tastes really good. It goes well, doesn't it?
0:22:32 > 0:22:35It's unusual, but it does work.
0:22:35 > 0:22:38- The jelly that you've done isn't really seasoned.- OK.
0:22:38 > 0:22:40It doesn't taste of an awful lot.
0:22:40 > 0:22:43- So this is Earl Grey inside here, is it?- Yeah.
0:22:46 > 0:22:48Well, you've got a perfect bake there.
0:22:48 > 0:22:50Even texture throughout.
0:22:54 > 0:22:57This tastes really good. It's not too strong.
0:22:57 > 0:22:58Often when you use tea in a lot of things,
0:22:58 > 0:23:00it can overpower everything.
0:23:00 > 0:23:02But I'm intrigued with this cucumber icing.
0:23:05 > 0:23:06She's right, it works.
0:23:06 > 0:23:08It's unusual, and that's what we wanted.
0:23:08 > 0:23:12I've never tasted anything like this before. It's delicious. Well done.
0:23:15 > 0:23:16Well, guys, well done.
0:23:16 > 0:23:19You've done everything you can in those challenges
0:23:19 > 0:23:22to impress our baking gods.
0:23:22 > 0:23:25But now, it is up to them to make that important decision -
0:23:25 > 0:23:29which one of you are crowned this year's Junior Bake Off Champion.
0:23:31 > 0:23:33You'll be happy to know your friends and family have arrived
0:23:33 > 0:23:36to enjoy the Mad Hatter's Tea Party.
0:23:36 > 0:23:38All they need now is your wonderful bakes.
0:23:41 > 0:23:43CHEERING
0:23:48 > 0:23:50Hello.
0:23:50 > 0:23:51It went really well.
0:23:51 > 0:23:53- Really, really tasty. - It's like a rabbit.
0:23:53 > 0:23:55They're really good.
0:23:55 > 0:23:58The Mad Hatter's Tea Party is in full swing,
0:23:58 > 0:24:02but inside the tent, a difficult decision has to be made.
0:24:02 > 0:24:07Based on three days of challenges, our judges must choose one winner.
0:24:07 > 0:24:08Let's start with Ruby.
0:24:08 > 0:24:09She's had her highs and lows,
0:24:09 > 0:24:12but we've got it right with the eclairs today.
0:24:12 > 0:24:15We got it right with this very unusual sweet dish.
0:24:15 > 0:24:18Well, Ruby had already showed us in the semifinals
0:24:18 > 0:24:20that she is the queen of eclairs.
0:24:20 > 0:24:24She's very good on her timing and she's very good at her flavours.
0:24:24 > 0:24:27She's really done very well indeed.
0:24:27 > 0:24:28Well, moving on to Zainab.
0:24:28 > 0:24:31She's been so consistently good,
0:24:31 > 0:24:34but today, she really has had great difficulty.
0:24:34 > 0:24:36I mean, starting off with her mini pizzas,
0:24:36 > 0:24:38she made them a little bit thick.
0:24:38 > 0:24:40Excellent flavouring on the top,
0:24:40 > 0:24:42but she couldn't get them just done in time.
0:24:42 > 0:24:44She made a very good cake -
0:24:44 > 0:24:46beautifully cut chequerboard.
0:24:46 > 0:24:49Good flavours, nice icing, but not finished.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51There's no consistency there.
0:24:51 > 0:24:54She, to be honest, when she's on top of her game can beat anybody.
0:24:54 > 0:24:57But when she has an off day, she really does have an off day.
0:24:57 > 0:25:00Harry. Always smiling. How did he get on?
0:25:00 > 0:25:05He is a true baker. He's got the background knowledge.
0:25:05 > 0:25:08On the test, he knew all three spices,
0:25:08 > 0:25:13he piped well and he's done wonders today.
0:25:13 > 0:25:15The bakes today were just out of this world.
0:25:15 > 0:25:17I mean, rabbit in something like that!
0:25:17 > 0:25:22He managed to get that carrot cake, wonderful texture, nice finish.
0:25:22 > 0:25:25He did improve, each stage all the way through.
0:25:25 > 0:25:28Someone who has shown consistency is Emma.
0:25:28 > 0:25:30Did she stand out in any of the challenges?
0:25:30 > 0:25:34Her tarts yesterday were absolutely amazing.
0:25:34 > 0:25:36Today you can't fault the chocolate cake.
0:25:36 > 0:25:38It's a difficult thing to get right in the time.
0:25:38 > 0:25:42Unfortunately, she hasn't really pulled it off with the scone.
0:25:42 > 0:25:44Guys, it's a tough decision.
0:26:00 > 0:26:04Bakers, friends and family, a very warm welcome
0:26:04 > 0:26:07to the Junior Bake Off Mad Hatter's Tea Party.
0:26:07 > 0:26:10Now we are here to celebrate the achievements
0:26:10 > 0:26:14of our four fantastic finalists, so step forward please, bakers.
0:26:19 > 0:26:24After much deliberation, our judges have made their final decision.
0:26:26 > 0:26:30And the champion of this year's Junior Bake Off is...
0:26:38 > 0:26:42..congratulations, Harry, you're the new Junior Bake Off Champion!
0:26:42 > 0:26:43CHEERING
0:26:58 > 0:27:00Junior Bake Off Champion 2013.
0:27:01 > 0:27:04When he actually read out my name, I was really shocked,
0:27:04 > 0:27:06because I didn't expect to win.
0:27:06 > 0:27:09I'm really proud of myself, because I never thought I would
0:27:09 > 0:27:11actually get through to the final, so it's a massive achievement.
0:27:11 > 0:27:15I'm feeling really proud getting this far and it was really fun.
0:27:15 > 0:27:20It's been a really great experience and I'm really happy for Harry.
0:27:20 > 0:27:25Harry is bursting with natural talent. He has worked at it.
0:27:25 > 0:27:29His knowledge is amazing and he loves every moment.
0:27:29 > 0:27:31Everything that he's produced
0:27:31 > 0:27:33has just got better and better and better.
0:27:33 > 0:27:36And in the final, he just absolutely nailed it
0:27:36 > 0:27:38and blew everybody away.
0:27:38 > 0:27:40It feels absolutely amazing.
0:27:40 > 0:27:42It's going to be really odd going to bed tonight
0:27:42 > 0:27:44and knowing that I am Junior Bake Off Champion.
0:28:03 > 0:28:07If you fancy giving baking a go, head to the CBBC website
0:28:07 > 0:28:10and choose a Junior Bake Off recipe.
