Rowan's "The Magic Flute" Battenberg

Rowan: "Well, I'm making my night sky marzipan. My great hero in music, is Mozart and his opera, The Magic Flute. It's all about the forces of darkness and the forces of enlightenment. So the outside of the cake is the night sky, which represents the forces of darkness, and then inside is the temple of enlightenment, created with a lot of complicated cutting."
Judging
Rowan: "I had to change the design at the very last minute. It's a deconstructed temple."
Paul Hollywood: "I think the night sky looks quite effective."
Prue Leith: "Yes. And actually, it's quite neat."
Paul Hollywood: "I can tell straight away by the way the knife goes through that. That's quite a heavy sponge. "
Prue Leith: "It's a bit hard work for cake."
Paul Hollywood: "It feels like there's moisture in there."
