Junior Bake Off

It's Cake Day for the first heat of eight junior bakers as they enter the tent for exciting challenges: sponge baking and jelly making as they make fantasy cakes themed around their wildest dreams!

It's Biscuit Day and the first heat of junior bakers must create the near impossible in biscuit form, and a masterpiece biscuit canvas, fit for an art gallery, inspired by their favourite artist.

The first heat of junior bakers have a lot to prove on Bread Day, with tricky shaping techniques in the Technical and sculptural sweet bread mythical creatures for the Showstopper.

It's Dessert Day and the first heat of junior bakers are asked to make an animal-shaped dessert with ultimate height and jiggle for the Technical, and decorative trifles for the Showstopper.

It's Pastry Day and the first heat of junior bakers recreate an unlikely object in pastry form with a Caribbean-spiced twist, and choux pastry scenes featuring themselves - a Selfie-Clair!

It's Cake Day for the second heat of junior bakers, as they tackle a tricky construction challenge in their first Technical and a showstopping cupcake scene for someone they love.

It's Biscuit Day and judge Liam sets the second heat of bakers the muckiest Technical ever seen, before they bring a magical touch to their showstopping fairy-tale biscuit scenes.

It's Bread Day and the second heat of bakers get their hands dirty in a colourful, twisted Technical, and create bread creatures great and small in a zoological Showstopper.

It's Dessert Day and the second heat of bakers make stacks of gooey, chocolatey deliciousness and a mash-up dessert combining elements that wouldn't usually share the same plate.

It's Pastry Day for the second heat of bakers and their last chance to win a place in finals week. They make a Spanish snack with a twist and a showstopping celebration pie.

It's finals week, and our last eight junior bakers celebrate by making street food, as they combine part of a Sunday roast with a Middle Eastern filling, and make 3D doughnut displays.

On day two of finals week, the remaining bakers make Japanese-inspired creations, complete with intricate pipe designs, and delicious tartlets that bring together two flavours.

On day three of finals week, the six remaining bakers create tower-stacked illusion bakes that deceive the eye, and make fault line cakes revealing the flavours on the inside.

It's the semi-final and the junior bakers tackle a cute-but-tough Technical, and one of the hardest French patisserie skills with a Junior Bake Off twist: 3D choux centrepieces.

It's the final, and the four remaining bakers create a themed afternoon tea, with entremets and pastries, and a showstopping tiered layer cake. Who will be crowned the winner?
