The Hairy Bakers delve into the world of celebration cakes in this week's concluding episode, as they face their biggest challenge to date.
Dave Myers and Simon King are tasked with making a five-tier wedding cake. However, they've never made a wedding cake before, let alone an iced extravaganza of these proportions.
On a quest to find out more, Dave and Simon visit Patisserie Viennoise in Otley, Yorkshire, where they learn that the art of chocolate is a "dark and mysterious, seductive yet confusing world".
To get up to speed cake-wise, Dave and Simon start by making not one, but two tailor-made birthday cakes for four-year-old twins. They make a layered chocolate cake for Toby and a princess castle cake for Tessa.
Finally, the Hairies journey to Manchester to meet Helen and Jonnie, the couple who are prepared to let them loose on their wedding cake.
The boys decide to bake a traditional fruit cake with their own special twist. Using quantities of ingredients so large, the cake has to be mixed in a wheel barrow.
After baking and putting marzipan on the cakes, the boys attend sugar craft lessons before they attempt to begin decorating and then constructing the five tiers.
It's art meets engineering for the boys and, as the bride and groom are followed in the nail-biting lead-up to their wedding, will the cake be ready on time and worthy of celebration?
