Stacey Solomon and Liam Charles bring together the best teams from both sets of heats, whose first challenge is to create 24 classic chaussons aux pomme (apple turnovers) and come up with a new baked creation for the judges. For their second challenge they have five hours to produce a striking sugar showpiece on the theme of A Garden Paradise, along with two types of desserts of their choosing.

Stacey Solomon and Liam Charles present the semi-final, and in a first for the patisserie contest, the teams must create a plated dessert for each of the judges. With no recipe and just the ingredients and equipment before them, they draw on their experience to produce something that will hopefully stop Cherish Finden and Benoit Blin in their tracks. For the second challenge, they must create an edible table scene inspired by the land of the dinosaurs, with a large macaron cake at its heart.
