The Great bake off 2: Desserts

Signature cheesecake

The world's best cheesecake is Junior's cheesecake, they say. Now, I don't think there's time to actually bake a cake for the base... and there seriously isn't time to let the cheesecake set after baking, which I think is really badly done by the program. They should have made it as showstopper and done it day before so that it could have rested the night, but... alas.

I would put in canned peaches in the cheesecake, I love peach cheesecake like that. The German Pfirsichkuchen with quark. :-) That's a Finnish Easter tradition, btw. A peach pie with quark.

Technical challenge: chocolate roulade

Here's how Paul Hollywood makes a chocolate roulade. 

Showstopper croquembouche

This is a miniature croquembouche, but aren't those roses just lovely! And the pink icing! Martha Stewart made a pink croquembouche by using pink craquelin topping on her profiteroles. :-) Really cute.
