A high-flying show biz sponge, a Remembrance Day centrepiece, and a cake take on an iconic military vehicle - it's another challenging day for our extreme cake makers. Former army helicopter pilot Rosie faces her most precarious cake build to date, as she attempts to suspend a life-sized edible figure over the heads of the cast of a West End musical. Suzanne must impress with a detailed cake replica of the Lloyd's of London's Lutine Bell - which forms the focal point for a Remembrance Day service. Taking 130 hours to create, it includes 75 sugar poppies that look like they are falling around the cake. And Ben battles to make a cake replica of a tank, good enough to astound tank enthusiast Tommy-Lee on his 18th birthday.

Consisting of two tiny Mr and Mrs cakes, they're surrounded by a 'moon gate' of sugar flowers and each one is decorated to match their wedding outfits.

Nastassja must make a birthday cake as glamorous as the birthday girl herself, to take centre stage at a dinner party.
