8 Meringue Nests
About the dish ...

Noel Fielding: "The judges would love you to make eight meringue nests."


Alison Hammond: "Now, your baked meringue can be any style that you choose, but it must have at least two fillings."


Prue Leith: "It's dessert week, and for me, that's the best week of the year. We're asking the bakers to make meringue nests, which is piped meringue, so that you get a basket or nest shape, and they can fill it with anything they like. But we need at least two fillings. Obviously, fillings can be anything. It's critical to get those flavors balancing beautifully."


Paul Hollywood: "The perfect meringue nest is very stable. It must absolutely hold their fillings. You have to bake it low and slow to get every bit of moisture out of that meringue and then it'll be rigid. It's getting into the latter stages of the bake off and they really need to show off, really show to us what they can possibly do."
