Maxy: "It's apple and walnut with cream cheese frosting."  


Voice-over: "Maxy's classic cake features layers of spiced apple and walnut sponge filled with cream cheese frosting, apple puree and salted caramel, elegantly decorated with fresh apple and whole walnuts."

Prue Leith: "If I walked into a room and saw that cake, I'd know that was your cake. It's got Maxy written all over it. I mean, it is neat as a pin. I love the decoration on the top, the little apple strips." 


Maxy: "So I've made an apple and walnut cake and I've crowned the top layer with some caramel." 


Paul Hollywood: "I think that's a really good cake. The apple comes through beautifully. Walnut is that texture at the end. I think you've done the apple justice, actually. Well done."
