There’s a lot to love about the semis, in terms of the actual bakes, which are mouthwatering. But also a lot to hate. Still crying over here.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><h2>Signature: Financiers</h2><p>Teeny tiny little sponge cakes with a big ol’ chunk of icing. Like a long, thin cupcake with a fancy name that Esther can’t pronounce. Dan pulls it out the bag, Matty’s are a bit of a mess. *Someone* gets a handshake…</p><p>&nbsp;</p><h2>Technical: Tartes aux pommes</h2><p>Weirdly, despite being in opposite camps on almost every bake, both Holly and Esther would make light work of this one. GORGEOUS. We think Matty is secretly a pastry chef and is just pretending to not know what he’s doing.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><h2>Showstopper: Milles feuilles</h2><p>Controversial pronunciation aside, this challenge produces some truly spectacular bakes. We’re worried about darling Tasha at this point, but clearly Josh is going stellar.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><h2>Join us!</h2><p>If you LOVE this podcast, there is a way to get more Holly and Esther nonsense, and that’s by becoming part of our <a href=\"https://www.patreon.com/womensrunning\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Pod Squad on Patreon</a>, where you can get involved in live zoom calls with us, weekly newsletters and an exclusive Discord community for friendly chat and support from like-minded women runners!
