This year's competition was bigger than ever, with twice as many weeks and twice as many challenges. Ten amateur bakers from across the country entered the tent, and now only two remain. The winner of this week will be named America's Best Amateur Baker. As always, the bakers will face three challenges: The Signature, The Technical and The Showstopper. But this week, the bakes will test the bakers' skills across a wide variety of disciplines. These are the most difficult challenges the bakers have faced so far, under the tightest time constraints, and, at this level, the judges will be looking at the tiniest of details, as they decide who walks away with the title. Family, friends and many familiar faces from the competition all gather for a large celebration party, where this year's winner of "The Great American Baking Show" will be announced.
