Annabel, Harry, Tyrese and Abi have their baking knowledge and piping skills put to the test when they are asked to follow Allegras surprise recipe for a US classic - red velvet whoopee pies. These stunning cookie sandwiches which ooze fluffy meringue filling prove themselves to be a tricky first technical challenge for the bakers. This is followed up with gravity-defying show-stoppers that require the bakers to demonstrate engineering, as well as baking skills. Expect spectacular bakes which take off into the sky and others which topple and fall.

The four bakers entering the third heat of Junior Bake Off have the mammoth task of flipping 12 uniform pancakes to produce a glossy chocolate-covered pancake cake. Ben, Francesca, Hannah and Oliver follow up this tricky technical challenge with a historic show-stopper when Allegra and Nadiya ask them to recreate a moment in history using biscuits. They not only have to bake robust and perfectly flavoured biscuits but they also need to construct their moment, if they are going to make history and make it into the quarter-finals.

Nadiya and Allegra have already chosen their first five quarter-finalists and only five places remain. The four bakers out to impress in the tent are Jenna, Ali, Dylan and Robin, who are tasked with following the recipe for a chocolate ginger volcano biscuit. The trick is to use bicarbonate of soda to create an explosive honeycomb centre. Next they tackle a food illusion showstopper, creating sweet bakes made to look like a savoury meal. Who will perform the magic to conjure a place in the quarter-finals?

Nadiya and Allegra give four more junior bakers, Lottie, Harry, Ffion and Mehdi, the chance to compete for just one place in the quarter-finals. The technical challenge is one of Allegras recipes for pizzetta bianchi. Which baker will achieve pizza perfection with these thin, mini white pizzas? Next the bakers have to invent a dessert in show-stopping cake form. Expect blackberry crumbles, lemon meringue pies and even jelly and ice cream to be transformed into cake.

Its the last of the Junior Bake Off heats and just one place remains in the quarter-finals. The four remaining bakers to enter the tent for the most coveted spot are Rachel, Mimi, Yasmin and Tom. Judges Nadiya and Allegra have set a tricky technical that will test their baking know-how with a surprise recipe for chiffon cakes. For the show-stopper challenge the bakers must showcase their artistic side, creating detailed artwork on a painted cake. But who will portray the personality and creativity and impress the judges enough to put them through?

Its the second quarter-final and five more bakers enter the Bake Off tent to face judges Nadiya Hussain and Allegra McEvedy. The technical bake sees the bakers tied up in doughy knots as they try to follow Allegras recipe for baked pretzels and dip. In the show-stopper challenge the bakers have to produce 12 eclairs. Theyll need to pull out all the stops to present perfectly piped and deliciously flavoured eclairs if theyre to go through, but only three can win a place in the semi-final.

The three finalists face two days of baking challenges before one of them is crowned Junior Bake Off Champion 2016. Today, for their first ever signature challenge they must produce two different canapes made with rough puff pastry, and whilst the bakes themselves arent a surprise, the guests they are making them for are. Sam and Mark welcome vloggers Marcus Butler and Oli White to the tent to assist the judges in tasting the bakes, much to the delight of the finalists, who are massive Marcus and Oli fans. After all that excitement, the judges really step up the pressure by giving the bakers their final and toughest technical challenge yet - a surprise recipe for chocolate passion fruit meringue pies.

The first 10 bakers enter the tent for Cake Day and two challenges. The bakers are asked to follow Prues surprise recipe for a tea party classic, followed by impressive showstopper cakes on the theme of the bakers favourite school subjects.
