Great British Bakeoff! But American! Wednesday, April 9, 2025

It was Fussy French Pastry Week because even though both of your teachers spoke French, they weren't going to call the stuff pâtisserie.

"Bonjour," Steve said with a grin. "We're making French stuff today. Well, you are. JARVIS banned us from the kitchen when we tried to make the nuns."

That would make more sense in a minute, kids.

"He's no fun," Tony said with a frown. "After we judge last week's bake, we'll start you out with a classic entremet. Which is like if you made something where the decoration was inside for when you cut them."

"It should be no problem for you now that you've mastered custard," Steve said with more enthusiasm than their custard skills might be earning. "We'd like at least four layers when we cut it open, and also for it to not be a sploogy mess."

'Sploogy' was totally a real word.

"After that, we move onto the nuns," Tony said with a grin. "Or the Religieuse, which are filled choux pastries that are stacked together to sort of look like a nun." Just go with it, folks.

"Ours did not look like nuns," Steve said, "but that's why we're teaching and not taking this class." He smiled. "Before we get started on the entremets, let's see your herbal cakes with sugar flowers!"

Hopefully you learned how to make sugar flowers! Or ordered some from Amazon. It's not like your teachers would be able to tell.

Dill. She used dill. Kitty had been trying to swing for the fences and oh boy did she not succeed.

Lavender. It was classic for a reason.

Hannibal was very good with entremet. It definitely did not "splooge".

He expected to win, but it wasn't his fault the instructors had less refined palates.

All right, and Nell was also good.

Only one tipped over! And that was because Hannibal got distracted.
