For the signature challenge, the bakers will be making a tres leches cake, a Mexican favorite, in three hours, but they can incorporate their own international flavors above and beyond the milk. The sponge should be light and airy, and not oversoaked to be made leaden by the milk soaking liquid. The bakers also have to figure out how to infuse the sponge sufficiently with that soaking liquid, the process which is usually allowed to happen overnight. For the technical challenge, the bakers will have ninety minutes to make a kransekake, a Norwegian cookie tower made of stacked almond cookie rings "glued" together by royal icing, the kake which, by design, is gluten free as almond flour provides the structure. Kyla admits to the camera that the recipe provided makes just enough dough for the eighteen rings required, so that there is no room for error. For the showstopper challenge, the bakers will go wherever they want to in the world in making a cheesecake - most cultures and their cuisine which has its own take on the dessert - in four hours. Even if the bakers choose what North Americans see as the traditional cheesecake, they once again have the opportunity to go international by the flavor profile they choose. And being the showstopper, the judges are expecting elaborate decorations. Written by Huggo See less
