The heat is on in the professional kitchen as Bake Off: The Professionals hits its halfway point. Tune in Tuesday, July 1 at 8 PM on Channel 4 for Season 10 Episode 6, which sees hosts Ellie Taylor and Liam Charles throwing down two exacting technical bakes and a showstopping celebration piece that will separate the true pastry masters from those merely good.
The remaining teams face a tough five-hour sprint. First, they must prepare 24 savoury Paris-Brest and 24 decadent savarin. These are not simple bakes; they demand precision, skill, and a cool head under pressure. Then, the main event: a towering, tiered celebration St Honoré designed to feed a crowd of 150. This challenge pushes their artistry and structural engineering to the limit.
Judging these efforts are the stern but fair world-class pâtissier experts, Benoit Blin and Cherish Finden. Their critiques will determine which teams have the skill, patience, and creative spark to move forward. Only six teams will earn a spot in the next stage of the competition, making this episode a crucial battle for survival. This series continually finds the best pastry chefs from hotels, restaurants, and patisserie shops and puts them to the test.
