Bake and Decorate an exquisite Millefoglie

Bake and Decorate an exquisite Millefoglie

The mission for the Season 14 of The Great British Baking Show ™ Showstopper in the semi-final was to bake and decorate a millefoglie (an Italian celebration cake with layers of puff pastry). The bakers were given four hours.

Paul Hollywood said "This should be a highly decorated pastry with buttery flaky pastry layers. The millefoglie is an Italian dish that should look and taste incredible."

Prue Leith added "We are expecting at least 4 layers of puff pastry."

Time Allowed:

What did we learn from the Showstopper?

Almost every week during a series of The Great British Baking Show ™, it is true that the Showstopper Challenge does not represent anything that a typical baker would ever make at home. Therefore, most often we will not study the baker's dishes (since we'll never want to replicate them) - instead we'll highlight interesting elements of the bakes.
