The Great Canadian Baking Show Season 09 Episode 08 Description
Finale
For the signature challenge, the bakers had 2 hours and 15 minutes to make a bossche bollen vlaai, a dessert that combines two popular Dutch pastries: the vlaai, a flat tart with a yeasted crust, and bossche bollen, profiteroles filled with whipped cream and covered in dark chocolate. The bakers may use any fillings and toppings for their version of the bossche bollen vlaai. In the technical challenge set by Kyla, the bakers had to bake a crema de fruta, a Filipino dessert made of a calamansi chiffon cake and vanilla custard, and decorated with whipped cream, graham cracker crumbs, and fruit cocktail set in pandan gelatin, in 2 hours and 15 minutes.
For the showstopper challenge, the bakers were given 4.5 hours to create a madeleine tree, a stunning tower made of madeleines and paired with an additional bake of their choice.
