Great Canadian Baking Show Season 4 Episode 4 recap: Holy cannoli!

Canada’s top home bakers are tasked with creating Italian confections

We’re officially halfway through season 4 of The Great Canadian Baking Show and tonight, our bakers are confronted with Italian week. You know what that means; they’re living la dolce vita in the GCBS tent!

The episode starts off with co-hosts Ann Pornel and Alan Shane Lewis scooting around the park adjacent to the GCBS tent to mimic the way people get around in Italy. Ann gets a smile out of me with her line about not being able to keep up with Alan on the scooter because she had a big breakfast. I’ve been there. Food comas are very real for me.

Also, Ann is really making me rethink bright, bold coloured eyeshadow. It really works for her.

Hearing Dominike say “there’s only seven of us now, there’s nowhere to hide anymore,” feels like foreshadowing, but I don’t agree with the sentiment. There are six other bakers still in the mix.

This line would be more appropriate if this was the final episode. Hide away!
