As the season gets closer to its finale, The Great British Bake Off is heating up with its latest episode: Dessert Week. The contestants will be facing challenges like never before as they try to impress judges Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith with their sweetest creations.

The episode starts with the signature challenge, where the bakers are tasked with creating two different types of individual desserts. The first dessert needs to have a baked element, while the second one must be a set dessert, meaning it cannot be baked. This requires a lot of technical skill and precision from the bakers, as they need to get the texture and consistency just right for both desserts.

Next up, the technical challenge will put the bakers' creativity and problem-solving skills to the test. They must create a Mango and Raspberry Charlotte, a classic British dessert that consists of a creamy mousse surrounded by sponge fingers. This is a notoriously difficult dessert to make, so the bakers will need to be on their A-game to impress the judges.

Finally, the showstopper challenge is where the bakers can really let their imaginations run wild. They must create a multi-layered dessert with a minimum of three different flavors and three different textures. This is where the bakers can put everything they've learned throughout the competition into practice to create a show-stopping dessert.

Throughout the challenges, the bakers must navigate a hot tent while dealing with the pressure of the competition. The judges will be scrutinizing every aspect of the bakers' desserts, from the flavors to the presentation, so there is no room for error.

As always, the hosts, Noel Fielding and Matt Lucas, will be on hand to provide some comic relief and keep the bakers' spirits up. The camaraderie between the bakers will also be on display, as they help each other out when things get tough in the tent.

Overall, this episode is sure to be an exciting one for fans of The Great British Bake Off. The bakers will need to bring their A-game if they hope to make it through to the next round. Who will shine and who will crumble under the pressure? Tune in to find out!
