在这部加拿大家庭烘焙大赛 第八季真人秀片中,
The ten new home bakers are introduced to competition life in the tent with what is the tradition of the first week, cakes. They are given two hours to complete the signature, which is for each to make a love cake, the highlights of which are some sort of nut flour, and a wide variety of spices and aromatics. They are also given two hours to complete the technical, of which only someone from Winnipeg would have heard: a shmoo cake. The bakers have to be careful in the dichotomy of the angel food cake base against the addition of nuts (pecans), whipped cream, and caramel, the weight and fat contained in such ingredients which could easily deflate the air incorporated into the beating of the egg whites. And they are given double the time of fours hours to complete the showstopper, which is for each to make a split cake. It is characterized by the interior of the cake being even more decorated than the exterior. The bakers have to weigh the pros and cons of splitting the cake before or after decorating the exterior. After these three challenges, Ann and Alan make the announcements of the first star baker and the first competitor to leave the tent for the season.
