Raspberry and Chocolate Slices
Great British Baking Show ™ - Judging
Chigs: "I am making a raspberry and chocolate slice. I want to make sure the flavor of the raspberry comes across more than the chocolate, basically, because I know the chocolate can be a little bit more overpowering, but I want that raspberry to really punch around the face."
Voice-Over: "With a slender layer of chocolate ganache sandwiched between jaconde sponges, supporting a raspberry mousse, thin coating of raspberry jelly, and delicate decorations. Chig's slices will be the epitome of Parisian elegance."
Prue Leith: "I like them a lot. You've managed to create nice, sharp lines. Very Parisian. Making my mouth water."
Paul Hollywood: "I like the sponge in there. The sponge is good. I think you've got just enough chocolate there to marry it with the raspberry.'
Prue Leith: "I was a bit nervous because that chocolate is quite strong. Then I took it with raspberry, and it's perfect."

About The Great British Baking Show ™
The Great British Bake Off ™ (often abbreviated to Bake Off or GBBO and referred to in the United States as The Great British Baking Show ™) is a streamed British baking competition, in which a group of amateur bakers compete against each other in a series of rounds, hoping to impress the judges with their baking skills. One contestant in The Great British Baking Show ™ is eliminated in each round, and the winner is selected from the three contestants who reach the final.
The Great British Baking Show ™ operates on a weekly elimination process to find the best all-around baker from the contestants, who are all amateurs. In each episode, the bakers are given three challenges based on that week's theme: a signature bake, a technical challenge, and a show-stopper. The bakes are assessed by the judges who then choose a "Star Baker" for the week, and a contestant is also eliminated. In the final round, three bakers are left and a winner is chosen from the three.
