The Best Pastry Chef tent welcomes a new team for its 15th season, set to air on M6. Olivier Minne takes over as host of the competition, while Cyril Lignac is joined on the judging panel by Norbert Tarayre and Roxane.

Fourteen amateur bakers are taking part in this edition. The first evening, devoted to soft, tender cakes, begins with a Swiss roll that the contestants must shape in their own image, following Cyril Lignac’s revamped version.

Norbert Tarayre then presents a bear-shaped castella cake, with a recipe filmed at triple speed. For Roxane’s creative challenge, the contestants must come up with a comfort cake, such as a trompe-l’œil pillow or pet. These three challenges establish the roles of the new judges.
