Great British Baking Show ™ - Judging
Jeff's cake features a secret centre.
Jeff: "This is the hidden bit in the middle lid star, and it's a tribute to my wife. She's a guiding light in the family."
Voice-over: "Celebrating his wife's favorite flavors, Jeff's raspberry star was hidden inside a zesty lemon and almond sponge."
Prue Leith: " That's quite impressive."
Paul Hollywood: "Very strong lemon, and the almond comes through beautifully. Your flavors are spot on, but it looks such a mess."

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.
