Flour Power

In this episode we're at the Cyrenians in Edinburgh. The Cyrenians is a charity who look after people at risk of homelessness, offering support to help them turn their lives around. Senior relationship manager Ali, experienced charity cook Noura and assistant key worker Davie are all desperate to beat the big boss, Ewan. In a workplace with a huge baking culture there is no chance of these four competitive colleagues slacking off as they each aim to win the Flour Power trophy! Boss Ewan is baking a wholemeal loaf with sundried tomatoes and mixed seeds and will be hoping it packs a flavoursome punch. Noura, from Syria, is using a traditional recipe to make baklava, while Ali gets to grips with her chocolate sponge cake. Davie is also going full-on chocolate with some 'gooey' brownies, but will they wow today's guest judge and award-winning baker Michelle Phillips? She joins series stalwart Nichola Reith to scrutinise these sweet and savoury treats. Once all the workmates' creations are revealed, tasted, judged and scored, just who will win the prestigious Flour Power trophy?

This entertaining new series pits cake-baking colleagues against each other in the ultimate office competition - the battle to be crowned the best baker in the business.

From designers to distillers, teachers to charity workers, amateur bakers from all walks of life come together to craft their best cookies, scones, cakes and brownies.

But this is full scale workplace warfare, and they'll need all their skill to prove they can handle the heat.

Once the dough has risen and the dust has settled, who will take home the Flour Power trophy?
