For their Wild Card bake, the Birdhouse bakery made a Pistachio tart, The Wee Boulangerie Bakery made Pistachio Honey Nougat and Murrays Bakery produced Perth Pistachio pies.

After a tough day in the kitchen, it was the Birdhouse Bakery that the judges declared the winner of today’s heat. Their Wild Card bake captured the judge’s imagination and led them to believe that the Birdhouse bakers have a lot more to offer.
