Who made this dish?
"With her Samoan heritage close to her heart, Mackenzie's layering almond shortbread with toasted coconut and cherry jam."
Mackenzie: "My maiden name is fa'umu ina. And fa means in the way of umu is like the oven food, and then ina is drink. So my maiden name literally means, let's party."
Prue Leith: "Well, I have to say, they look as neat as a pin and very appetizing. Nice tempering."
Paul Hollywood: "I'm not getting a huge amount of cherry because the coconut's overwhelmed it, but I like coconut."
Prue Leith: "I'm a big fan of coconut, so I really like that. I think the biscuit is beautiful. It's got a nice crunch to it. I'd have liked the coconut bit to be set more, because when you squish into it goes all over the place, but I love it."
