The Great British Bake Off Season 08 Episode 04 Descriprion
For the first signature challenge, the bakers were required to produce 18 identical millionaire shortbread bars in 2 hours and 15 minutes. The technical challenge was set by Prue where the bakers were tasked to make stroopwafels in 1 hour and 45 minutes. Only one test waffle was allowed, and the challenge proved to be a very difficult one for the bakers with none of them producing an adequate caramel. For the final showstopper challenge, the bakers were required to make a caramel cake consisting of at least three layers of sponge in 3 ½ hours. They were required to incorporate spun sugar into their decorations.

The Great British Bake Off Show Summary
The Great British Bake Off sees ten passionate home bakers take part in a bake-off to test every aspect of their baking skills as they battle to be crowned the Great British Bake Off’s best amateur baker. Each week the nationwide tour sees keen bakers put through three challenges in a particular discipline.
The competition kicks off with cake in the Cotswolds, then moves to Scotland to tackle biscuit baking, then Sandwich in Kent for bread, Bakewell in Derbyshire for puddings, Mousehole in Cornwall for the pastry challenges, and London for the grand final.
Judging the baking are renowned baking writer Mary Berry and professional baker Paul Hollywood; presenting the show are Mel Giedroyc and Sue Perkins, who trace the very particular history of British baking by visiting local baking landmarks and discovering why people bake what they bake today.

Why is the great British bake off filmed in a tent
The bake-off is done in a tent in order to expose the bakers to two very critical variables that they must demonstrate they have mastered: humidity and temperature. If you were to actually own a professional bakery that made products every day, particularly in the traditional bakeries in Europe that have operated since before air conditioning, the product must be consistent every day despite the changes in the natural environment. It can be said that a true master is able to produce consistent results in the face of any obstacle. They accomplish this by painstakingly developing their perceptual systems in the brain through repeated experiences under different conditions.

What does the winner of the great British bake off getting?
After competing to get a post amongst the 12 bake-off contestants, and spending 9 weeks sweating it out in the tent of technicals the best baker of the show will be announced and awarded with a cake stand – and maybe some flowers. That’s it. There is no big prize fund for the winner, no alluring £100,000 to help them set up the bakery of their dreams, just the joy of baking and winning the series. For the bakers who are ultimately crowned the winner of the series, what they lack in prizes from the show itself they make up from the prizes they gain in exposure. The first winner of The Great British Bake Off was Edd Kimber who was exposed to an audience of nearly 3 million in the first series on BBC.
