The Caterpillar Cake is a Chocolate Swiss Roll with a caterpillar face and legs. It is decorated with meringue, ganache, and fondant.
In Series 14, Episode 8 (Party: Quarterfinals), the technical challenge, set by Paul Hollywood, was for the 5 remaining bakers to create a chocolate caterpillar cake in 2-1/2 hours.
1st place - Tasha, 2nd place - Cristy, 3rd place - Matty, 4th place - Josh, 5th place - Dan.
This is the episode where Matty won Star Baker, and where he introduced his "Classic" Sausage Rolls recipe (we baked the sausage rolls earlier this year).Feel free to allow your inner artist to emerge and let us see what type of caterpillar cake (and name) you end up creating.
