Flour Power

Series 1

Episode 9

Duration: 28 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC Scotland HDLatest broadcast: on BBC Scotland

In this episode we’re visiting the Old Mart Resource Centre in Maud, Aberdeenshire. On the former site of one of the UK’s biggest cattle markets, this resource centre provides a support network for vulnerable people in the local community. It houses a GP practice, social workers, housing professionals, voluntary organisations and community groups.

Public health co-ordinator Calvin, community mental health nurse Lesley, mental health area co-ordinator Don and admin support assistant Suzanne go up against each other for the Flour Power trophy. With a strong baking culture already established in this workplace, the competition is red hot!

Suzanne, with 30 years of baking under her belt, has plumped for a chocolate beetroot cake, while Lesley is using fresh fruit, nuts and pineapple flowers to make her hummingbird cake. Don is also knee-deep in chocolate, producing a traditional chocolate cake topped with homemade fudge. Last but not least, Calvin attempts one of the most technically challenging bakes of the series - macarons. Unluckily for him, today's guest judge Suzanne Horne runs her own patisserie that specialises in this tasty treat, so he will have his work cut out to impress. Alongside Suzanne is series judge Nichola Reith.

Once all the workmates’ creations are revealed, tasted, judged and scored, just who will win the prestigious Flour Power trophy? Show less
