They will all be hungry for the win as none of the four was ever named Star Baker despite each going quite far in the competition in the season they competed. For the signature, they will each be making a yule log, the judges not only looking for something that resembles that log in the forest, but that underneath the decorations has a perfect swirl and a perfect ratio of cake to filling. For the technical, they are asked to make one of the most quintessential of British Christmas goods: twelve lattice topped mince tarts apiece served with a brandy butter sauce. And before the announcement of the winner, the bakers have one last challenge to complete, the showstopper, which may be the most difficult: each to make eight entremets topped with an edible snow globe, which means not only eight identical holiday scenes for the interior of the snow globes but eight crystal clear globes made out of either melted sugar or isomalt, both which can be extremely fragile and temperamental.
