In the morning, Bitty faced off against his new "friendly" rival—The Muffin Man (who does not live on Drury Lane.) While Bitty might not have made the best muffins, he whipped the Muffin Man's gingerbread butt in the pie category, and in the showstopper cake award, eked out a win by literally making a tiered cake with a pie on top. (It's not cheating if the judges like it!)
Everything baked between the two bakers was shared among judges, participants, and attendees. There was a short break in the late morning, to prepare for the Amateur Pie Contest.
The Outlander contestants presented their pies to a panel of their peers—Jake Pentacost, Bucky Barnes, Jester Lavorre, Ciri, Richie Tozier, and Tater "Birthday Boy" Mashkov—in a blind taste test. The judges had no idea which pie belonged to each Outlander to make it fair. Pies were paired off 1-vs-1 in six groups. The winners from the first round were then paired down to three groups, until the final when three pies competed against each other and crowned a winner. Ties were broken by Bitty. Superlatives were also awarded by Bitty! ♥
Congratulations to all the bakers who participated in this bake off! While the Best of Show will be featured for the rest of the summer at Bitty's Bakes, you can bet your butts that Bitty is going to bothering every single one of you for tips, tricks, and recipes (and feature one of you in the coming months on the menu, thank you very much!)
