Great British Baking Show ™ - Judging
John: "I am making an irish coffee viennese biscuit with a irish cream ganache with a coffee praline centre."
"Really neat."
"They're small, they're cute."
John: "So it's a chocolate biscuit with an Irish cream ganache."
"It tastes lovely."
"The ganache is quite sweet, but the biscuit has a little bit of bitterness to it because it's coffee, so it works really well."
"I think they're probably slightly over done, so it gives you quite a dry mouth, rather than luxurious."

About The Great British Baking Show ™
The Great British Bake Off ™ (often abbreviated to Bake Off or GBBO and referred to in the United States as The Great British Baking Show ™) is a streamed British baking competition, in which a group of amateur bakers compete against each other in a series of rounds, hoping to impress the judges with their baking skills. One contestant in The Great British Baking Show ™ is eliminated in each round, and the winner is selected from the three contestants who reach the final.
The Great British Baking Show ™ operates on a weekly elimination process to find the best all-around baker from the contestants, who are all amateurs. In each episode, the bakers are given three challenges based on that week's theme: a signature bake, a technical challenge, and a show-stopper. The bakes are assessed by the judges who then choose a "Star Baker" for the week, and a contestant is also eliminated. In the final round, three bakers are left and a winner is chosen from the three.
