This week, the bakers are challenged to make mouthwatering masterpieces out of bread. Who will rise to the challenge?

The bakers dive head first into a world of carbs as they tackle three difficult challenges for Bread Week (Wednesday, Nov. 8 at 8 p.m. on CBC-TV and cbc.ca/watch).

The judges sample, discuss, and declare the Star Baker, and announce the baker who must leave the tent.

There is the challenge of the technical bake, where each baker must perfect a classic.

And there are signature and technical bakes, where personal baking styles and tastes will thrive.

Warning, spoilers below as we discuss who made star baker and who went home:

Our Star Baker excelled in every challenge, putting muscle into her kneads and love into her dough.
