    Chong will you be available after each show for a Q&A session? :D There are so many things I want to know, such as...Who eats all the baked goods every week? Are they shared among the cast and crew? And who does all the washing up? :D

    And how long do the cakes sit there between being baked and getting sampled!

    Very well done Chong :)
    It's a great programme, I really enjoyed it and it gave me fierce cravings for cake. I'll have to make sure there's some in the house for future episodes...

    Turns out TV3 don't have a live streaming player, and we don't have the Irish channels, so I couldn't watch it. Will try and catch it when it goes up online though!

    They sit around for a good bit whilst shots are taken then the crew mill in to them all. We all must have put on so much weight filming I am still trying to lose it :)

    How much do they tell you in advance to let you prepare? I've been trying to figure it out in the British one - are you told "Oh, it's biscuits next week" or are you given more specific directions?

    Shame there's no showstopper too.
